I was thinking what is your take on micro/freeroll tournaments? They are always so splashy and loose and those few times I have won them or make it to top 8 I have played so nitty like foldin AKoff and hands like that and at later stages building heavy aggression. So what you think? What have worked for you?

I think playing patient works really well in freerolls and micro tournaments because many players go all in with random hands early. I usually try to stay tight at the start and then play more aggressive later when blinds get bigger and fewer players are left.

Generally, they are weaker players, so always bet when you have value hands.

Freerolls, like micro tournaments, are essentially a game of bingo. If luck is not on your side, you will have no chance, regardless of your experience and skill. But at the same time, freerolls are a good and safe way to build a bankroll from scratch.
