Thats precisely the point. People DO care.

I can sit for 2-3 hours in a freeroll, and believe me, theres nothing more annoying and frustrating than getting close to the money, after all the effort you've put in, and you get a very good hand which you try to play the correct way, only to have it all undone by some clown who takes the very same attitude you take.

I care alot about my game, and I try to play the game the correct way. I dont take liberties just because its a freroll. I know how annoyed I get when someone donks me, so I sure as hell am not going to do it to them.

If I call an all in raise its because I feel my hand is as good as, if not better than theirs. Not just throwing chips in and hoping for the best.

If people want to play hit and hope card games then theres blackjack for that. Poker should be for people who understand the game, appreciate the game, and most of all will respect when a player has a better hand and aknowledge that fact. Not try and undo their hard work by turning it into a lottery...

You clearly dont know nor understand the game of poker..

Getting the cards is luck. Knowing what to do with them requires skill

If it's a freeroll,.. then one must adopt a style to play it accordingly. (ie. there will be many loose calling stations so just play strong hands for value and get them paid off,.. NEVER attempt to say semi-bluff a fl. dr., even with a ton of outs cuz you'll be called down by a player with med. pkt. pr. with a board full of overs, unable to let go of their hand, OR a player on A-rag who's hit bottom pr. on the flop).

Play tight (super tight is super right) in early going. The allin donks acquiring the big chipstack early,... target them for future chips cuz you can be assured they won't be going deep into the tourney (a huge mistake of some novices, thinking they need to double or triple up early to make it to the money). In a freeroll,.. often just surviving with your initial stack to first break is enough.

If you can get in against them from late pos. and you are assured the it won't become a community allin shovefest pot, then by all means get it in there with the best.

I try not to let how others play affect me,I tend to start to play bad and have at times played poorly cause they are playing like donkeys.Some try to get to you so you make a bad call,I know I've let it happen to me before.Yea some see it as free money but like someone else said that's money they could have won. I like to go in have fun and I'm there to try to win.I can't think of to many games i've gotten in and there hasn't been at least one that plays like a moron. But they can play their way I'll play mine.

thanks for the good advice- was never sure were to start but having a buget for 3 buy ins makes sense.
