I played the $250 freeroll on Party today 'cuz I was bored.
40 hands in I was at a table with only one other player -- all the others having given up.
I got KK and took out the other human, leaving me w/ a 20K stack.
For the next 140 hands, I just hit the raise button and took the blinds.
Talk about boring!
I thought I was toast on this hand:

UTG showed Q:s A:h and lost (-257,058 net)
But it set me up for a good run to the end.
Finished 46th out of 10371 original entrants.
I have finished higher in the daily PS freerolls, but this is the highest I've got in such a large player pool.
