Because 1. you play alot, and 2. the players you’re playing against are usually morons. Simple…they’re morons. You raise 3x’s, the imbusile has to know that you have something…he doesn’t have anything but an ace-ten off suite…it doesn’t make any difference if he has a A7o…he has an Ace…did it ever cross his mind that maybe you had an Ace also only with a higher kicker…shit you could already have a pair…which you did…now if you had the AT and he had the KK, then a K would have flopped and he would’t have even had to wait to the river fcr it.
And it wasn’t even a micro it was a $55 game, then the Monday morning quarterbacks here will try to justify his play to you or tell you that you should have laid er down.

That is why I’m getting to like this virtual horse racing so much more…you have donkeys there also…but they lose, there are no miracles, no donkey luck and no bad beats or suck outs…you win with skill, not luck.

I just got in a freeroll and tripled up on the first hand…that put me in 106th place…I guess to get in 1st place you have to take a table of all-in sons a bitches down…LOL

5 hands later of not playing and I’m in 1,215th place.

5th hand and and I took down 3 more donk opponents large stack all-in’s and it got me back to 208th.

Freerolls definitely don’t facilitate a very good learning experience as everyone plays like fucking donkeys.
