Are freeroll profits even possible?

How to make high profits in freerolls?
basically impossible?
They have the same probability of getting two Royal Flush rolls one after the other lol.
but it will never be profitable.

Since coming back to online poker 14 months ago I have withdraw £2000 in pure profit, I have a bankroll of over $70 cash + over $30 in poker dollars and over 70 micro and low stake tickets to play in the coming months. All of these come from playing freerolls, freeroll satellites and micro stakes with freeroll profits.
So making a profit from freerolls is possible, making high profits depends on what you mean by high profits, winning a million dollars very unlikely.

Yes, making a profit in freerolls is absolutely possible.
I don’t see them as a lottery, but as an opportunity to start without any investment. You risk nothing, yet you’re still playing for real prizes. Sure, it’s not a fast way to make money — everything depends on the long run. One tournament might bring nothing, but over time, results start to show.
In freerolls, many players act chaotically without any strategy. And simple discipline, patience, and a basic understanding of the game already give you an edge. Gradually, you can not only win small prizes but also build a starting bankroll to move on to more serious tournaments.
So yes — you can earn from freerolls. It’s not about quick success, but about patience and consistent play.
