i spend most of my time playing cash games and rarely play MTT or freerolls. I like the fast pace of a good cash game and the limit in which you can win unlike tournement play where you have to bide your time and have patience , when i do play SNG or MTT i seem to do ok i just hav not got the patience as i said.

I play more cashgame allthough i made more money in MTT and freerolls, mostly its the same way on every client, donking money on limits i cant pay and then have to play lowbuyin MTTs or freerolls, but i just like that action on cashtables damn much

Posted by Zon: Why do people play freeroll is it cuz they don't have the money to play ? Or it is cuz they think they are not good enough to put up money yet ?
i guess it's both for many people poker is just for fun and they don't want to use their own money on the tables so they play freerolls and many people surly want to train their skills in freerolls even though i don't think that that's an effictive way to improve because freerollplay has not much in common with BI MTTs or SnGs !

It really is choice, just play whatever you like or whatever you're better in playing in. I like a sit and go style cause tight aggressive strategy usually works and the sit and go finishes when theres one winner.
eww limit, i like horse tournaments and i like stud but i have never had any success with limit ring games, i never know if im ahead or behind and i cant bluff effectively.

What is it that you like about limit?
I also tried NL at the beginning but somehow i wasn't very successful with it too many suckouts, lost too much money. I just like FL because bad beats don't get so expensive and i just dont know i'mjust more into FL maybe because i make more there even though it takes more time to gain money than in NL

Thats why i hate playing freerolls dannyjon, you learn absolutely nothing about poker playing in them cause as you said, people just go all in nearly every hand and after folding 30 40 times i just end up calling with nothing frustrated lol

That why i dont play them cause people will just go all in on any thing and it does my head in. They only get serious after about 2 hours play when half the field has gone and they have a chance at cashing.
