Freerolling!
Well... So it finally happend. Thanks to a combination of me having to cash out, me still playing the same tournies despite a short bankroll and the worst string of bad beats I've ever witnessed, my bankroll is now down to $2.94. And since my credit card company now seems to decline eGaming transactions, I can't reload...
Therefore I have to enter freerolls in the future and pray for a few final tables. Anyone playing freerolls regularly? What's the tactic? Should I just sit back and wait for killer hands and move in? My first instinct would be that players in freerolls are more inclined to take a gamble with dubious holdings, right? TIA for answers and good luck to me! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

Re: Freerolling!
Early on (before first break) you should be calling all-ins with considerably less than you would even consider in a higher buyin tournament. If you have a monster you can usually push and get a caller.
Once you get some chips you should tighten up a little but still keep your eyes open for the fish still left. Once you pass the 2nd break it plays more or less like a normal tournament. *Also you can definitely exploit many people on the bubble that are just playing to make the money. Bottom line is take chances early. Build a big stack before the 1st break or bust out. |

Here I come! |
