I will!
I will do that, hope to join the league and freeroll club soon
The big number freerolls are depressing.
Study hard and learn as much about poker as you can.
Make as many quality posts on this as possible, join the League and the Freeroll Club when you qualify, and you will find freerolls much more enjoyable
I will do that, hope to join the league and freeroll club soon

At the beginning of the tournament, only play with monster hands such as AA KK QQ JJ 1010 AK AQ and after the bubble burst, you have to stop playing with only these hands and start playing with hands with less gaming power.

That is exactly what i do, but even with AA or KK or AK i lose against the noobs. It's what you said, bingoplayers. Why play poker if you can't be a little bit serious. What's the point of going all in with a bad hand preflop. Oh well, i don't think i will ever understand such people
I know how difficult they are, but it's better to get it all-in with such a holding than wait for hours to be knocked right on the bubble

In the very early levels try to play as tight as you can. Observe your opponents tendencies!! The first 3 to 4 levels are the ultimate donkfest levels. Non stop all ins with no reason and some times with any two cards. Avoid as much as you can to battle against those type of players. Personally I muck even some monsters because I don't want to eliminate from a flip. I am a post flop lover!
After those levels maybe you can play some poker, depends on the players who still run the freeroll. Try to open your high equity hands and try to play as much as you can in position and play abc poker. No need for fancy plays and no need for bluffs because it is a freeroll!! And again at these levels observe what some players tend to do. Some of those apply over and over again some specific patterns ie. bet/check/shove or check/check/bet , you got my point! Try to catch them red handed.
I believe those two are the most important rules! By gaining experience you will understand more by yourself.

There isn't much strategy that goes into freerolls since players are more looser and aggressive.
Your best strategy is to wait for a high pocket pair, an AK or AQ to defend an all-in or in the big blind if nobody goes all-in, check and hope to flop a monster to catch them off guard.

As your opponents become looser, you become tighter, as they become tighter you become looser. Good thing about freerolls is they are free which allows you to try out a bunch of different strategies with only the risk of your time.

The first few levels are like walking through a minefield and it should be avoided unless you have a big pocket pair or Ak. Once you get into later levels you can open up your opening range and 3bet range. Do not be afraid to steal some blinds to help keep your stack healthy and in good shape.

It's simple. You need to wait for a good card and throw it in Allin too. If the opponent throws each hand into an allin, then he does not have a very good card. If you sit and are afraid to play then you will be left without chips.

hello
the last few days I've been doing a lot of bluffing when we get to the higher blinds and a lot of reraising has been working in my favor for example when the blinds are 1500/3000 and its just me and someone else in the pot when they've bet out the minimum 3000 I noticed its a good chance there just taking a stab at the pot so ive been picking up a lot of pots re raising them
stealing the pots when the game gets to the high big blinds keep you in the mix when they get that high a lot of people play tight and wait for primo hands to try and double up with I've even messed up a couple times and made a bad bluff or two than have to 3 bet a big bluff to win the pot I showed my cards a couple times with as bad as 4 high for a huge pot lol it upsets people but then they think I always bluff and when I do get a good hand and make a bet like I don/t want them to call they call

Play super tight with best starter hands at the beginning of the tournament.
Do not bluff.
In the middle phase try to play your normal game cause many of the careless people tend to not go that forward.
Luck plays a huge role as well. Some people even go all in pre flop with 7,2 and win.

I try to do that, however its very tempting to play monster hands. I observe every player
I think patience is something i need to learn, and stay calm and not get angry and frustrated when i see donkeys go all in preflop with weak hands and still win. I know they won't get far when they keep doing that but still... Thanks!

Yes, that's my point. But in freerolls they keep doing that, even in level 4 or 5. When they have won a few weak hands, they think they can win it all. And i hate it when they do, haha

--I've won a few freerolls on ACR, and I've done so using two strategies, the latter being the most effective.
1. Sit out first few hands (unless I receive top 5 hands) and see what people are shoving w/. If a loose player wins the shove, I tend to call their next few shoves if I'm dealt a mid-high pair/ or top 5 hands. You've got to be lucky to win freerolls, so sometimes I like to use my luck in the beginning stages when calling shoves. I am usually never the first to shove.
2. Late-Registration entry. This strategy has won me more freerolls than the former. I purposely late regi. towards the later levels because at this point, most of the shovers are either eliminated or have a large enough stack size to begin playing "correctly". The dynamic is different and allows me to play tight while still being able to play more hands without entirely worrying about shoves left and right. Sure you'll be below stack average, but having a shorter stack than the rest in the early-mid stages puts you in better position to shove if need be.

Play real tight at first for sure. A lotta donks will call anything early
Watch of for the players who constantly shove every hand
U gotta get that early double up and then play good poker
The key is consistency
Avoid the donks early on
