Freeroll is inhabited by Millionaires! This is a fact. The average bankroll of a Freeroll of the winners of a random Freeroll will be over a million chips, that is in all 27 places. It isn’t as if we don’t know this. We just don’t talk about it. The reason we don’t talk about it is likely because every one of us played in Freeroll when we had over a million chips.
It is my guess that the total bankroll of all 255 players is over a quarter of a BILLION chips!
Here is a screen shot of a game finished just a few minutes ago:
The reason I am bringing this all up is because by demonstrating this basic truth it demonstrates clearly that multi-millionaires can get much more than the free chips they get 2,500 chips by signing in every day, which is 75,000 a month, but they can double and triple that daily amount without risking a chip in their bank!
So is there any wonder that we get people chasing every hand, calling every street, and going all in all the time?
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars. It is in the Freeroll system.
Variance is tough enough to deal with. So why can’t we find simple ways and means to teach the players not to be so cavalier with their chips?
