Since i entered this site once in a while a thread is openned to talk about donkeys in the BRM freerolls and this situation would be due to the fact that password are all around social sites.
And in these thread there is all kind of way suggested to get out the players getting the password on these sites and that would give better poker if only mobbers could play.
Yesterday there was a tournament on Full Tilt with mobbers only since we had to be track to BRM to play it.
And i have seen so many donkeys that i realize it was not better than any other freerolls with others than mobbers and i am very sorry to have seen that.

Freerolls can be just bingo the whole way through. Its a free tourney with no cost and little reward. I was in yesterdays and went allin first hand with 99. For a top prize of 5$ ticket i wasnt gonna play good poker. Best case scenario i win the flip and sitout til next decent hand. Not sure how others play freerolls but i tend to just push first good hand and go from there. I definitely understand how annoying it can be for the players who only play freerolls to have guys like me pushing allin all the time but they can wait for decent hands and take my chips when theyre ready. For me its just a flip tourney if i get enough chips to sitout n make a few free cents y not. It beats playing for 6-8hours for a little 5-10$ payday.

In those BRM freerolls it can be 5-6 hours for 5- 10 cents not $5- $10

Like arsenej1 maybe is better, in the benning i saw that freerolls like a good thing, but after playing some of then, i see the time comparated with the money that maybe win, and the amount of players in there tournament isnt enought, so i stop playing and i decided to play others freerolls, and get some money and go try in some sits of 0.02 or 0.10, is much better. But like allmost players here want, if the tournament is close only to mob players, and the password not passed on social sites, maybe for me, i start again play, but so far that not happen, and maybe will not happen, so i will continue play like i play since a few weeks.

Partypoker has 5-20 point freerolls. Some have 250$ prize pool with only 300 entrants so would be worth playing. The point amount may not be correct as i dont play there often but its definitely 50points or less.

Well arguing, or pointing to such players while playing freerolls, is a waste of time if you ask me. But when you see the same things in ring games or tournaments then thats different. And it is a fact that you will face the exact same things in real games too, at some point

There is no escape from the poker donkeys they are everywhere no matter where you play if it´s a freeroll the mumber of donks go to the roof They play like crazy men no fear no skill no attention just play bingo and hope that it will go there way Some times they will double up your bankroll but other times they crush your game

WAKEY WAKEY the most just play for fun , but i will say to them "for fun go play , play chips" i will play to win and dont like lose aa kk qq jj agains 5/8 or 4/10 ofsuit
Its hard to win the freerolls. personally i have given up and dont enter tournaments below 1 dollar/euro buy-in to avoid the freeroll donkeys. Since they dont invest anything they have nothing to lose and just clown around hoping for a lucky streak.
For the people who commit themself to play freerolls i can only advice to not get angered/frustrated by their stupid way of play and stick to the basics and dont take risks you normally wouldnt and you will beat them in the long run.

lol at your face.
Great first post. Way to give back to the forums...now piss off for another 4 years will ya
------------ Lol just realized u were the s**t monkey he was arguing with...u wouldnt push allin with A9s in a 25$ freeroll? Bud id push allin with only one card and not even hesitate if it were the deuce of clubs. Its a first place prize of like 4$....stop whinning and deposit 10$ it would take u a year to make that off these freerolls.
lol, crying because they got sucked out in freerolls?
I usually just laugh unless it's ITM before final table... At the point where most donks are gone and you don't expect donk plays anymore. Still I would never tilt bc of a freeroll. You have nothing to lose so expect very risky moves from your opponents. Freerolls shouldn't be taken seriously, especially those with a 25$ prizepool and thousands of players. It's just like play money. Play these to learn, to perfect your style against donks... or just for fun (I think 60%+ of players in freerolls play mostly for fun, not to win... which explains a major part of the bad play). You're never gonna be able to play proper strategic poker against a majority of people who don't care or who have no idea what they're doing... So stop expecting that. Just try to find ways to have an edge on the donks instead. (I find that playing post flop against donks is a lot more profitable than playing pre flop against them...)

This is an interesting thread and reminds we of a guy I used to work with. I hadn't noticed initially that one other guy called this lad, Donkey. I wondered whether it was because he was a bit of a fool, or whether it was because he was a hard worker, or because he was hung like a donkey.
It came to the time when enough was enough and I needed to know, so said to him, "why does that guy call you Donkey?"
He replied, "I dunno, it's just a case that 'ee-aw, ee-aw, ee-aw, ee-awlways just calls me Donkey!"

what ever you say pro. i like to talk bad with smartasses. besause 90% of players are cluelless ignorants. those ray-tipe players are just smartass talking, with low game skills and they lolz when they get lucky. FR or $100 bi. its a game of poker. when you say: its freeroll, who cares.. those of you are the true poker no clue donks. it shows how much you respect the game. maybe i just give a sht abt the game for being rude at some online poker chats. good luck at the tables
