Freeroll info on poker rooms

**pokeraddict** · 12th March 2004, 05:55 AM

I have done a bit of research and this is not all inclusive. There are many places I have never played or do not frequent enough.

Absolute Poker- Six freerolls satellites per day for the Sunday night AP $500 AP challenge. Top 5 for each satellites as well as top placers in real money multis are awarded seats. This site offers another promo for play money players, if you get your balance to $15,000,000 they give you a free $50 cash. Dont know how hard this is but there is a list of about 50 names.

Choice Poker- They have a $1000 cash new player freeroll and a freeroll tournament league. The new player freeroll gives good odds considering the low number of players here. The next one is March 14th. They have a freeroll tournament league that I think has already started for the spring. It offers $1000 in promo money and cash combined.

Prima skins which include most microgaming poker rooms- Offer $40 freerolls all day long for new signups. You can play in 2 per day but cannot play in these after 48 hours of signup time. They offer several freerolls a day for playing in 50 raked hands during a 24 hour period too. Links to these can be found in casinomeisters reputable poker room section.

Americascardroom/skins- They have 3 freerolls a week. These are rebuys and pay out promo money so this does not do a bonus hunter any good. They make you make a deposit and work off your freeroll win. You start with 300 in chips but rebuys give you 1000 more. Not very good odds if you dont have any money there to rebuy. Also offer freerolls to be bought in with points earned during play. These have rebuys as well. If you read other threads you will see how I feel about this place but in fairness I posted their freerolls.

Victorias Poker-Several freeroll satellites during the week ending in a main of event of $100 freeroll on Saturday. Doesnt sound like much but there arent many signups either so you have a chance.

Pokerworld- Offers freerolls for tournament money. You buy in with points earned during play.

Truepoker- Offers many freerolls a week that are point buy in tournaments. They range from $200 - $1000 prize pool.

The last 2 are very large thus do not need to promote themselves with much in the way of free money.

Pokerstars- I love this site for all tourneys. They offer freeroll satellites all week where the top 9 are awarded seats in a $250 freeroll. This requires lots of time and effort for a $100 first prize.

Ultimate bet- UB offers 21 freeroll satellites into main event that offers tournament entry chips.

These are not all the poker room freerolls by far, maybe others know of some I have missed from rooms I dont play in. The days of the old Americascardroom $500 freerolls you could go straight to the table with are all but over due to all the bonus abuse. Those poker rooms that do pay out cash that can be played at the tables usually have strict raked hand requirements before a cashout.

Ladbrokes run a $500 FreeRoll (no points required, it really is free,

) every Friday at 1500GMT. This is for European players only (Ladbrokes don't allow my cousins in the US to sign up to their Poker Room, I have no idea why they don't allow you to play there, sorry).

Absolutepoker.com just raised the prize pool of the weekly event to $1000

Well, I don't mind looking stupid.... what exactly is a Freeroll? I mean, I THINK it's a free tournament you can enter if you get enough "points" and then you get to keep the real money you win. But... is that right?

Sometimes you dont even have to pay to enter but usually you buy in with points or some places have you win a freeroll to enter another tournament that pays cash. Other times you have to play a certain number of raked hands to qualify.

Actually players from the U.S. can play at Ladbroke's Poker Room, but not the Sportsbook.

yeah ladbrokes is good

This has probably already been stated, but you can only win the cash if you have a certain amout of rake points equal to what you've won.

ie if you have 20 dollars of rake points, and win the 75 dollars they will not give you any portion of that winning until you get up to 75 dollars in rake points.
