it's hard to win more than a few cents in these tournaments as the participants of these tournaments play absolutely unpredictable .... Many people think that the tournament is growing free there you can play do not think about the consequences ... and therefore ridiculous bets are made .... which unfortunately sometimes win .... and in the end with a better hand initially you get nothing

Yes because here are the players who plays just like suxkysuxky, the woman who opened this thread. I played with these woman mobster in a few freerolls games and she plays almost every hand in all games with all in. He destroyed my game few times and i did not win anything.
Yes, there are several such players who, when playing in free tournaments using only one tactic .... constantly go all-in in the hope that they will be lucky ... And if they are not lucky that nothing terrible the tournament was free ... and this is of course sad .... because there is no game about poker anymore .... just a stupid lottery ... roulette .... these are costs of free tournaments

Why wasting your time in a freeroll, where you have low chances to win a good amount of money. You are trying your luck with few all ins, and if you get lucky , then you change, since now you have more chances to go deeper and get paid better. Isnt that the case?

I lost my time with few freerolls per months for few bucks or more. Sometimes you won in every months 20, 30 or more dollars and if it is a promotion chances are good to do 70 or over 100 dollars with all promotions, bonuses and freerolls.

If you are playing freerolls along with other games, or just is something you are doing while surfing the net for example, then a couple of dolalrs from here and there per month isnt bad. But the game play is like we all know. A lotto for the tournaments with many players in. You just need to choose a good hand, cross your fingers and hope.

I hope to win something but during freerolls not. Here i do not think about money and very often i risk the good cards. I like some freerolls but to play more you need to have a higher level or when you deposit money to run as much as possible. I have a middle level and i would like to improve it but in the last few months bad luck keeps track of me in real money games.

There are money to be won from free rolls but not from the free roll exactly, if the free rolls you are playing are attached to a leader board then they can be very profitable, thats what im doing, i can NOT say the site where i am doing this since its against regulations on this site, but free rolls can be profitable.

Yes they can be profitable, in some sites even now. Especially when there is a leader board as you are saying. The ones that brm was running for example had great prizes, for the ones in the board, which was an extra payout for the ones playing the game. When the poker sites strutted coming out, few years back, you could get a salary by only playing freerolls Now things have changed.
