100% agree with this quote. Dont play scared and in early rounds shove with monsters only and hope they hold. Deep runs are very common with good play. However with only top 10 paying. It is hard to cash often. Best bet is always cardschat freerolls. Thanks guys!
Freerolls themselves are not complicated. The game is not predictable. You can have a good map and leave the table because of the fish. Here you need to play carefully. It’s not scary if you don’t hit the prize money there is an opportunity to play again another time for free.
I would say the early stages of freerolls tend to be a little crazy with people trying to hit a monster stack early on but they tend to level out a bit later in the game especially when getting closer to the money I would say at that point they tend to play more like standard micro MTTs. I really dont think they are any harder or any easier you just need to adjust your playing style to suit.
Very simple.
If you want to up for free, you will have to spend a year, the second on freerolls.
If you want to win money today, then investing in Buy-ins and learning is not enough.
By the way, patience is needed here and there.
Decide youself))

Freerolls are a gamble, and mostly a waste of time (except restricted ones, like the ones offered by CardsChat). In my early beginning, i was able to muster about 7$ in 3 weeks of freerolls, and i busted them in a few hours. It's not a matter of how good you are. Freerolls will always attract newbies and clueless people, and sooner or later, you're bound to run into them, and find yourself outed after 3/4 hours of play, by some bingo player who decided to bluff you with 72 (that is... if he even knew he was bluffing). Those that dream of cashing out, without investment... keep dreaming, it's not gonna happen, not unless you have some other ace up your sleeve or you're incredibly lucky. That's just the way it goes... it takes money, to make money... ever since it was "invented".
surely paid games are more difficult than frerrols in that frerrols has more bad players registering. Maybe if you register for a tournament with less people, you can say it's easier, but if it's the same amount of people in the tournaments paid in frerrols, freerrol is certainly easier.
I'd rather take my chances in a paid MTT with players who know their shyt, and i get to make use of mine, than a freeroll with 10k+ players of bingo, where poker... stops being poker. I can only speak for myself, because i'm trying to get better at the game. Freerolls taught me nothing, except to fold better hands in the face of craziness, which in the long run... didn't help.williamsc99 said:

Well if i'm dreaming, don't wake my a$$ up.
I know it is possible to start from nothing, and build to something.
I've done it before, and i like the challenge. Sure, it takes time, and it effort, and patience, and yes sometimes it seems it was all for nothing.
In the end it's not the destination, But the journey that matters.:icon_bigs
It all depends on what kind of freeroll. Card games freerolls are all adequate and do not differ much from tournaments with buy-ins. And if we talk about freerolls in which 1,000 or more people participate, then of course it is harder to play them, because the people there do not play adequately. And it all depends on what kind of buy-ins in the tournament is 10 cents or $ 10
to me I think freerolls can be a lot harder because of people who play bingo instead of playing real poker:0) I had As beat by some of the craziest hands like J2 and that would be an all in call:0)I try to build my stack up early in the freerolls to make the final table when most of the donks are out:0) And I agree if you play those freerolls long enough you will be more prepared for the buy ins:0)

First, I read and commented on first quoted post.
Second, and not to be rude, you skimmed the reply post and lost the meaning of it.
I guess since I'm a noob, and have no idea what I'm doing, or talking about allow me to refresh.

Point : If your a TRUE poker player, then money doesn't matter.
Money is only a reward, for those who are dedicated and disciplined enough to pursue the game.
Remember : "Poker isn't a game with cards you play against people, It is a people game you play against with cards."
Look mate... i took that out of context in order to make a point, with no disrespect, though i don't understand why u seem offended. I stand by what i said, and i'm not sorry. I can only speak for myself when i say that poker, in any form, creates addiction, and it took me a while, but i realized i want something from this game, and i am an addict, i don't deny it, i try my best to achieve my goal, which is to master the game, enough to money out of it. Having fun while doing it... that's the actual entertaining part. If you start a thread on how to make something out of nothing, and you claim to play for fun... don't know, and i'm not the one to judge, but the story seems off. For what it's worth, i wish you the best of luck, and go prove me wrong.Cajin007 said:
I would say also that in buy in tourneys players have invested the buy in and are less likely to go all in with garbage hands
I play mainly at pokerstars and unibet and I find pokerstars to be the worst site for bingo players
