That first hour of a freeroll is CRAZY!! It's an all out "Freeroll Madness!!" For me it's a time to be patient. I watch the table for others who are being patient and make a note of them. I also try to make note of the straight up freeroll gamblers. When the first hour is over...guess who is usually still in the tournament?....

Of course some of the gamblers have gotten lucky, but by this time in the tournament everyone knows who they are if they are paying attention and can try to use a combination of patience, skill and the ever present luck (hopefully good luck...lol) to take them out eventually...
I like the satisfaction of making to the money in a freeroll, even if it's not a lot....
