The attempt to include the Pauli principle in the Monte Carlo method by acting also on the free flight step and not only at the end of each collision is investigated. The charge transport in suspended monolayer graphene is considered as test case. The results are compared with those obtained in the standard Ensemble Monte Carlo technique and in the new Direct Simulation Monte Carlo algorithm which is able to correctly handle with Pauli's principle. The physical aspects of the investigated approach are analyzed as well.
