We're you thinking that you were only freerolling?

I started playing poker in unibet freerolling and started going very well, even joined cash games with freeroll winnings. So I tend to lose the mentality that I am just freerolling.
How about you? Tell me your experience about freerolling.

I play freerolls at least 4-5 days a week. In fact, my bankroll is constantly growing thanks to the freerolls. For me, freerolls are a great opportunity to have fun and also increase my bankroll.

From the very beginning of my poker career, I have always loved good freerolls, where the prize pool divided by the number of players gives a minimum amount of about $0.5 and up. And if there is an average expectation of a few cents per person, then it’s better not to waste your time on such freerolls!

Participation in freerolls with a good prize pool is similar to participation in MTTs with low buy-ins from $0.5 to $3 most often, but sometimes there are better freerolls with a very large prize pool.

In such freerolls, people play much tighter than in regular freerolls, and you will not see a bunch of all-ins in them in every hand ))

I start every account off by playing Freerolls, after all is said "you cannot lose what you don't have" and if the poker site doesn't have my money, what can I lose?
I have closed several accounts with other sites when things change that I don't like, One site stopped the freerolls all together and transferred my winnings to their Sports betting site, when I said that I don't gamble their reply was "but you play Poker" I said "Yes! But with your money" :)

Currently: absolutely.
I'll move on to smaller stakes tournaments as soon as my bankroll allows. Until then the freeroll will remain.
There are quite a few freerolls thanks to Cardschat, I don't have the time/need for more competitions anyway.

the canadian version of PS does not have freerolls, so i am just playing sit and go's now. I did love the freerolls to pad the bankroll. Thanks to CardsChat for continuing with their freerolls!

Yes, freerolls should always be played because you will always only win there you can't lose and increase your chances to get money that you can spend wherever you want in the future even on games and tournaments

I play freerolls almost every day. But if I want to play poker properly, I prefer to pay bu-in. Because people behave more appropriately in these tournaments.

I always enjoyed playing freerolls if I had spare time for it or just having the table open alongside regular tournament ones. I do however take them as serious as I would a regular tournament. If nothing else it's good practice, especially if you are able to make it deep.
So about the feeling of "freerolling" I don't know if I ever experienced that. I'm always in it to win it.

I play freerolls for 2 main reasons: because it's a nice way to make some cash to play micro limits, and because they're incredibly funny (you'll always see some funny plays and bad beats)
