Depends on freeroll :
-what is the prize (tournament entries from 1 ticket to sunday million or 50 entries to next level)
-structure ; on pokerstars rebuy freeroll with hyper turbo and starting with 1000 chips, even when you have good start hand 5 other goes all in and a guy wit 72 or 79 gets 3 off a kind or straight and you can see that there is no point for playing it normal, because the normal game starts after add on worth 50000k chips.
-and there are freerolls like cardshat on GG poker where for ex. you have 300 people blinds increase every 8 min and you can enjoy normaln poker.

They are worth playing. Some are a waste of time especially those where you must place in 3 tournaments before finally making it to the target tournament after 6 or 7 hours of play. By then your tired of it. Tournaments where you make the top 4 for a decent ticket $109,$55 or Sunday millions and can play that ticket when you feel like are worth it. They usually only take 3 hours to complete as the blinds change every minute

If you dont care enough about the price money, or about getting practice, to play a somewhat normal game, then why bother in the first place? Just because a freeroll is there, does not mean, you have to register for it. But of course you can make SOME adjustments. If I occationally play a freeroll, which dont happen very often, then this is not the time, I sit and make nitty folds until maybe the final table or something. Until then if a spot is at all close, then I happily take it. If that cause me to bust, thats never something, I worry or tilt about, since it did not cost me anything but my time to play

Is it worth playing free rolls? It really depends on each person. You won’t get rich playing them but you can play them for free money to start a bankroll. You also get to practice for free with a prize as a possible reward win win I. My opinion.
Now let’s be honest we’re lucky we have them. poker sites are there to make profit not have free games. They are their for beginners not for people to make a good money.
Also remember this, one pro went from nothing to I believe 10k to prove what can happen from these game.

I play freerolls pretty much the same way I play a buy-in tournaments. I don't understand players who play all hands in a row, but how to play is a personal choice of everyone.

When starting out and learning the game as a newcomer I often played mainly free rolls. This enabled me to build a decent bank roll to move up and also experiment with different strategies and plays. Trying new moves for free was obviously helpful and cost effective while not having to risk my own money yet still learn and have the possibility of winning real money. I have since moved up from most free rolls and usually play low stakes and the CardsChat free rolls only. I enjoy the CardsChat community and the games have treated me well. Made some nice poker friends and few dollars as well. Very appreciative of that fact. As I continue to learn I often will try out new techniques to this day. Thanks cardschat for an awesome experience.

Hello, depending on what freerolls and what prizes! If there are tournaments where several thousand people play and relatively small prize money, then my strategy is to go all-in with a more or less good card and double up.
If we talk about tournaments from cardschat, then a relatively small number of people play here and good prizes in comparison with other freerolls, and I play more carefully and thoughtfully

That depends on what type of freeroll it is. Sat's frerolls are very much like that, everyone jamming like crazy. Progressively people start to tight it up I think. I like to play regular freerolls, and if you able to get in the bubble frequentily, sure it will worth some money.
