true most are a waste of time. sadly 888poker remove some club freerolls aswell...
and 888 was the only really good site with extra freerolls (besides the freerolls cc gives on other sites) its less and less every year sadly they take away the good freerolls and leave us with bad ones 50$ prizepool with 12k players.. who enjoys playing that really? 8 hours for 2cents lol
whats the best freeroll site thats out now? partypoker?
Eventhough some of 888's decisions are indeed more than questionable they'd still have like twice (if not more) as much freerolls as other poker sites have daily, no?
I'm not saying that they are the best either but Unibet still has several regular freerolls aswell eventhough they do got rid of some regular tournaments
As for party then i've no idea cause last time i visited them they were as close to being "best freeroll site" as i'm for being president :bebored:
Normally if there is a 5000 person freeroll with prizes for 50, 99 out of 100 times you are going to waste time according to what you think, also the majority of people who play freeroll do so because they do not have a bankroll to play other types of tournament. Any type of tournament that distributes prizes to its participants is good, if everyone had the money to participate in tournaments with buy in, nobody would play freerolls.
is that a real question?Why is everyone trying to convince Ishnock that he is wrong?
LOL
is that a real question?
better one would be why aren't you?
Seriously, they are a waste of time, where you even lose money if you win. Most of the FRs on poker sites have a 50 to 100.00 prize pool, where the top person gets 7 to 10.00.
All the Cons-
- They take forever, even longer than most tourneys, because they have several levels of late registration. I've seen some with close to 40 levels of late registration, because the freeroll offered re-buy ins.
- It will take a long time to get ITM, and when you do get ITM, it will be for pennies. I have never won a FR, but I have finished ITM, where I was like top 30 or something, and I won 85 cents or so. I played a 1.00 buy-in tourney with a prize pool of 1000.00. I finished top 40, I believe, and I won 3.80. I played that same tourney again, finished top 5, and won 35.00 dollars. Top 5 in a FR is around 3 or 4 dollars. I got more money for similar finishes in the buy-in tourneys.
- You also losing money ( time is money) on them, because you're putting forth tons of mental labor over long periods of time, for either pennies on the dollar, or for no money at all.
- The hand play from villains is Kamikazee style, because the game is free, and the buy-ins are micro cheap. From the start of the tourney, you will be forced to dodge shoves on 1 out of every 6 to 7 hands or so.
Maybe the exclusive club FR are worth it, but they are still insanely time consuming just to get a low payout.
People will recommend FRs for the purpose of gaining real play experience. But I disagree with that as well. You can get the same experience by playing with play money, or playing against people on a poker phone App.
calm down dear it wasn't obvious but I thought from the LOL afterward that it was a joke, and so was mine.Obviously it's a joke. A little sense of humor.
I see others have a sense of humor in the forum and I thought I could joke too.
I apologize
calm down dear it wasn't obvious but I thought from the LOL afterward that it was a joke, and so was mine.
