The 2 factors that will make or break a freeroll for me are: finishing ITM / chatting it up with friendly folks.

Without either one of those, a long time spent in a freeroll can feel like a waste.

Well... Jimmy... I'll tell ya... when you enter one of these.. and some have a lot more entrants than others... I figure ya gotta know what your in for or you shouldn't enter in the first place. I know it's frustrating to play for 3 hours or in some cases 5, and not get anything for your efforts other than the experience of going deep into a Tourney, which is something if not any money. Other questions would come to mind... did you enjoy it or was it such a grind that you hated it? If it was fun for you... it was worth it!

As you know I played 6 hours and qualified for a 2K Tourney this weekend.... I'll let you know after I play if I think it was worth it lol! Smile Wink

my experience with freerolls is if you don t want to invest the time you shouldn t play. i played in one on AP last night made it down to 52 out of 6ooo plus and didn t qualify for weekly which was 30th and below . and didn t make a dime, and that was 3 hrs worth of play. was i mad. sure. but i'll still enter them just for the fun of it. i love the game. and i know in time i'll get that win again. patience, patience, patience,when i learn that again. i'll get my wins.

Agree with above staement if your playing for fun and chatting with friends it is worth it or if trying to build a br from 0 but if your trying to make real money I say its a waste of time
