Same here, being that it's tough to gamble my actual money away, I need all the freerolls I can get
I'm too attached to Full Tilt to try anything new though, but I guess I should try it out. Most other sites have annoyingly real people for their graphics which bugs/distracts me. Full Tilt is cute and simple.

Gotta luv the freerolls where have the table is all in on the first hand and the 9 4 offsuit wins.. Nothing but a donkfest putting in 3-4 hrs of work for 1.66.

I started out playing mostly freeerolls and I do think it helped my game. The main thing I hate about playing them is all the people who complain about the site (fulltilt) being rigged. I don't know why they keep playing there if they believe it's rigged. Those people bother me way more than the donkeys do.

I love freerolls. They are a good place to keep your ego in check. It teaches you that not everyone plays with reason or logic of traditional or standard tournament strategy. You always have to continue to re-evaluate both table situation and individual play of your opponents. As of now I am a micro stakes player(5+5 tourney my biggest online tourney, .25/.50 blinds for cash). so I am not really worried about my profit per hour. I love poker because of the competition.

I only play freerolls when I have lots of time to kill or I can't seem to fall asleep. It really doesn't matter what stakes you play at you can always find donks to go up against.

I'll play the $100 freerolls on FT but I mostly stick to just playing with this one site I joined and the freerolls they put on.

It's probably peanuts. Which is fine if you're a newbie and just getting your feet wet. But it you've played for a while and are still making very little per hour, you'd be waaay better off to spend your time improving your game instead of looking for more freerolls where you'll continue to make peanuts.

And on the other hand, if you're actually winning at a reasonable hourly rate, your game is decent enough that you should be playing buyins because you'd be making more money.

some people, like myself have no choice but to play freerolls.. i dont have the luxury of having $$$ to play in nothing but freerolls.. i'm a stay at home dad who is simply trying to win $$ here and there so i can try and turn it into something bigger.. i wish i could be playing for hundreds and thousands of dollars every day, especially when i think i'm good enough to play with anyone..

I played this freeroll on ftp yesterday 06/06/2008. Was playing with people who were sitting out. Don t know if they are people with 2 accounts and not playing that account because they were on another account that is doing well or regsiter and forgot to remeber. But finish in 16th out of 672 and made a big .14 cents.
