any advice?
Do you guys have any advice for playing a freeroll tournament at either pitbullpoker.com or pokerstars?
I just finished one at pitbull, and i came in 27th out of 700, but that still doesnt put me in the money.

answer: Try making the money more often?

My advice is not to waste time on freerolls unless you' e broke, bored and have nothing better to do. If you do play them, the guys are right... try making the money... first/second is good.
Perhaps if you posted some key hands (including the hand you busted on) you could get some more constructive feedback

arrite let me try again.
I am completely broke. And do not plan on putting any money into any account until I am confident I am good enough at the game.
Now, I was just wondering if there was a common strategy that you guys could offer when playing freerolls. Like things to be aware of, etc.

there really is no good answer to your question. remember it's a "freeroll"
there are usually a lot of weak players in these so if you're a decent player then you should have no problem getting at least close to being in the money. when you're getting close to making the money you should play your smartest poker meaning DO NOT go all in preflop even if you have aces because that's just a coin flip.
