Why in freerolls do players usually go all in randomly?

I think that if a player goes all-in with any card, he plays a lot of tables and is located on the drive ...

I guess it's the lack of rigor and discipline. or just that they are not motivating enough to play their A game. he may be lucky and touch their cards, but in the long run he will lose.

Obviously, the reasons for this behavior are different. Usually it is tilt, or haste and lack of time. But personally I am glad to see such opponents at the table.

This is his strategy, because if he double up he can press the whole table.
Probably he doesnt have a good skill so he need have more chips than other players to try win.

well to go allin with any 2 is NEVER a lack of time or they wouldnt have signed up. They are basically facebook players who have no idea how poker even works. No other reason why someone would go in with just any 2. Its one thing to go in with suited connectors or 1 or 2 gappers that are suited.

for many players, freerolls are a place where you can behave like a maniac because for them the prizes in freerolls are not significant. In freerolls they take a break from the main important tournaments.

There are several freerolls with good payouts and yet players insist on going all in with any cards! why?

Since you ask, I assume, it annoys you? Maybe you feel, they ruin the game and turn it into bingo? In that case maybe just play some paid tournaments instead. People tend to take these a bit more serious, and they also tend to have a more reasonable blind structure.

On 888 Poker most freerolls have 3 minute blind intervals, but if you pay just 50c, you can play a tournament with 8 minute blind intervals and a 400$ price pool every day at 6pm CET. That is a cheap 1-2 hours of quality entertainment, even if you fail to cash :)

That's because most freeroll players just want to have some fun. They go all-in for not being able to play postflop and take advantage of the fact that they have not invested any money to play "depend on luck".

I think these players are just not interested in playing freerolls. They believe that such tournaments can be played as anything, because it is free.

CC freerolls are actually very decent. I have seen only occasionally an overly loose all ins. I was very positively surprised by it.

In freerolls, there is no real cost to busting early and often. On the other hand, if you play for 3 hours then bust on the bubble, you've spent 3 hours of time and have nothing to show for it. So, some people play crazy fast and loose early on so that if they bust, they do it early, and it they survive the early rounds, they've got a huge stack and so have a big advantage before investing all that time in the later rounds.

It may be due to lack of knowledge of the game, lack of time to spend hours playing and not being able to reach the prize pool. So they risk everything to win the maximum chips or leave from the beginning.

It’s Free

Because it’s free. It’s like playing Zynga Poker it’s free, you have nothing to lose. Too bad people don’t take it as practice for more advanced play or to better their game.

To chip up and then play poker. Early, if you bust, you can rebuy cheaply for a lot more chips and you're on your way.

Well, play your game and once you are close to the bubble people tend to realize they might be losing their time for nothing, after the bubble they go crazy again.

To get lucky and double up on players that have real cards. Its a bad feeling and it keeps happening.

In many freerolls, it is enough to win two all in and you can really think of a payout zone.
