Fulltilt is not bad in my oppinion, tho the money there is tuff to get with 2700 starters. on the other hand: smallest price is 2 $...
other sites with smaller rolls, but smaller starting fields also i enjoy playing freeroll are VCpoker and PKR.
Funnily i was looking a bit into this topic for myself today and found out that pitbullpoker has pretty interesting freerolls once per hour and everest still offers this free SNGs. oh and 888/pacific i remember also having some nice freerolls!
There are so much at Full Tilt, I mean the private ones and not the public ones but at Carbon Poker you also have interesting ones so watch out for them. Good luck newbie

I use to play a bunch of freerolls on Pokerstars. They had the ~$2500 freerolls 3-4 times a day but you could only enter once a week. Not sure what promotions Pokerstars have now.

I wanna try to make some money in some good freerolls but also not.. Because the play is so different in freerolls. Mostly its more lotto than poker, ppl who win with 29o etc etc.. Imo its much luck to win a freeroll, well .. more luck than skills
If anyone know some good freerolls that are starting the same time every day, let me know I will start play and play and see how much I can build. Just worth-playing freeroll thanks. Not like... 20$ freeroll with 1500 ppl, that is just crazy

That's truth. But if someone likes playing tourneys without thinking or basing on any kind of strategy - check out GT500 freeroll on Pokerium.com with 500EUR prize pool at 19.00 CET. Registration begins 15 mins before tourney, but it is always full (2000) and there are no sit outs. After few minutes...about 500 players are gone Another 30-40 mins and there are 500 players left. Isn't that weird? Luck is all you need there, it doesn't take long so you can give it a try.
Also, check out freerolls at Rosso poker, as far as I remember not much people plays there, pools are: Mon-Fri $200, Sat $600 and Sunday $1000.

i dont think freerolls are only luckbased to win. i score in roundabout 50 % of the freerolls i (seriously) play.
i agree tho that there is a lot more gamble in freerolls and that a lot of things that work great in most pokergames for money, do not apply to freerolls.

Try Pokerstars it offers more than a freeroll/hour of different games and with different prizes. The bad thing is that there are always a lot of people and most of them play at random.
