If you spend so much time trying to win some money in freerolls, then I think you should not immediately go and play cash games on them. This is a completely different discipline, and the skills gained in freerolls are not enough for you to compete even at nano-limits. You either need to learn how to play cash games or just start playing cheap tournaments.

Of course you can play on all sites without depositing, but as far as I know, some sites require a minimum deposit in order to withdraw.

I think freerolls from Cardschat are the best to improve your skills, and when you get some money from there you can play with real money to probe your skills and improve.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Your quality of play can improve over time by playing Freerolls, but if you really want to improve at poker more quickly, I suggest you check out the FORUM categories: Poker Strategy and Our Events.
Freeroll playing often is more like BINGO and requires more luck than skill. Playing Freerolls "only" can actually be detrimental to improving quality poker skills....bad playing habits can migrate to your game. Good luck and skill to you. Namaste

If you're feeling the need to question this, why not just make a deposit? (on most sites it is typically MUCH easier to withdrawl your winnings if you've previously made a deposit... on some sites it's mandatory).
imo (& this is what I chose to do)
Deposit so you can play what you want to play and when you want to play it. You can also continue to play freerolls after making a deposit, giving you the option to do both!
fwiw, many players play for the enjoyment of the game & not solely for the money that can be won from it (in many (most?) cases it just wouldn't be worth it)

I am from Nepal so doing monetary transaction from my country is difficult since we don’t have Debit credit card which supports international payments.
If and only if I could deposit money I would have done that 2,3months ago.
So because of that reason I am bound to play freerolls so that I can make some money to make more money.
Hope you understand!!

Yes I do understand. It has gotten much harder for me to deposit /withdrawl on some sites vs. how it used to be 10years ago.
Direct bank transfer, gift cards, bitcoin, << these seem to be best in many cases

your both answer have little relation with the topic!
"rent money?" talk for yourself
"I hate freerolls" you are in the wrong place

Once you're able to play the Cardschat freerolls, it'll be much more worth it.

If you aren't having fun while doing it, I'd say that you are wasting your time regardless of how much money is involved or where you got it.

The problem with this mindset is putting too much expectations on what a freeroll is. Freerolls are meant for practice without risking any money. They are not meant to make you rich, or to give you a reasonable amount of money.
When you play a freeroll, do it for the mere action of practicing what you've learned recently. If you get money, consider this a bonus. Then you start little by little getting more confidence to play micro tournaments. The very same thing will happen in micros though. Sometimes you will play a $1 tournament for 2 or 3 hours, and then you bust right after the bubble, and get just $2 or $3. If you look just from the money perspective, ok, this is a disaster. But if you look from the practicing and learning perspective, each tournament you play makes you stronger.
It's the same of playing a $0.25 45 players sit and go with 10 min blind levels. You will play for 2 hours, or 2h30, to get $3.25 if you get 1st place. From money perspective, this is terrible. But you need to think that this is learning, exercising your brain to take good decisions.
Later, when you get good and start having some bigger wins, you will start making something more from a money perspective. But don't think a bankroll grows fast. Bakrolls can have some boosts from time to time, when you hit 1st, 2nd or even 3rd in some tournament, but in general they grow slowly.

If you are a free person, freed from family obligations, why not play freerolls all the time. I, too, as a beginner, dreamed of accumulating some money through freerolls and winning money for a comfortable old age with one blow. Alas, it did not work out yet, I hope your friend is more lucky. And so freerolls are a good opportunity to win good tickets to major tournaments from scratch.
