Are freerolls runing your game?

I don't over bet in the freerolls at all. I also use them to try new things like working on playing the double belly busters and getting the most value out of them. The freerolls are a good place to work on refining your poker skill and learning to read players.

Sometimes it becomes necessary to break bad habits and I believe that the freerolls is a good place to practice breaking those bad habits.

The play money games are great for improving your skills as well. I see better play in the 10 and 100K play money tournaments than I do in the $10.00 real money online games.

Remember there are very few online games where the entry fee is as high as the lowest entry fee in a casino or card room. You can't get into one in a casino for less than $50.00, but online that is considered high stakes poker.

This may sound weird, but i barely think when in a freeroll until im itm. That way i dont pick up any poor habits.

I do see a lot of people who do go all in way too much in freerolls but I'm not one of them lol , I do still play them sometimes because I like to play around with different ideas and I like the patience they require with all the early flippers lol , gl

Im not saying freerolls are a bad thing. Just be mindful when you transition that you can get into over betting habits. In addition, they are horrible for trying to learn bluffing strategies because they call you down "just to see"

If you raise your aces and they reraise, going all-in is never a mistake. I think the initial pot sized bet, followed by all-in reraise is the right play. You are right about aces. You will either lose a big pot or win a small one most of the time.

That is true a little. I played Fr's a month straight and when I finally started to play $3 Sng's i tented to over bet the pot a lot pre flop and on the flop. However I never go all in or shit like that

Mr. Wimpy I wrote a blog similar to this, you may want to check it out.
