Message: [QUOTE="sandy358, post: 7190517, member: 1040401"] Depends on the level. Bronze level freerolls are usually an insane asylum akin to the lowest micros. Silver and Platinum usually have stronger players, so you'll have to exploit them on case-by-case basis. Continuing the topic of the bronze, technically you should in general be much more value heavy and bluff much less, because: a) far too many calling stations you should avoid bluffing against b) most of the pots are multiway, where bluffing is dangerous by default Also use hands with good multiway playability, aka suited aces, suited kings, low pocket pairs and to lesser degree suited connectors and gappers (you may want to open- or overlimp with those at passive tables). Raise offsuit big cards bigger to discourage a lot of people from calling you and therefore tighter. Avoid trapping and limping with big pairs unless someone at your table hates limpers so much they will iso-raise against them far too frequently, as with your big pairs you will extract much more value heads-up and with less risk. ICM. In general you should apply more aggression against midstacks, especially the ones you cover, but in fishier games you will often see shortstacks that nit unreasonably when payouts are on the horizon, so you can apply pressure against them too. If someone is far too aggressive and disregards ICM DO NOT apply pressure against them just for the sake of ICM and GTO-play, it will cost you money, just nit and overfold to their aggression and wait till they automatically go bust against a much stronger hand, which is just bound to happen.
