No Charge poker tournaments are every day competitions that occur on quite a few of the best internet poker websites. Freerolls are greatly favored by the poker betting community as they offer the poker enthusiasts the chance to gain some actual money without losing any. The entry to these freerolls is – as the name indicates – free and prize $$$$$ can vary from a handful of dollars for finishing near the top to a few hundred dollars for capturing the huge freeroll hold’em poker tournaments.
So why do the poker websites have freerolls? Is it as a result of their extremely big-hearted character and the fact that they make massive amounts of $$$$ so they have a moral obligation to give a bit of it back?
What do you think!
No of course it isn’t, the basis that the great poker sites provide free tournaments is to attract people to their web site.
Here is the idea boiled down – You come across a poker room that has an excellent freeroll, it charges you nada to enroll in and you are able to win 100 dollars. You think "fantastic!" and you head over to the site and join as a member so you can participate in the freeroll. You can play and finish quickly and are annoyed because you believe you should have done better, or you go near the end and so you are wanting even more play. What do you do? You bet some cash at the site and play a different poker game!
Make sure to check the freerolls for cash-out requirements, you’ll nearly always have to play a couple of hands for actual $$$$$ before they let you take the winnings out. Often this is on a 1 to 1 basis, so if you capture twenty dollars at the freeroll poker tournament you will need to have played for $20 in actual money in order for you to be able to take out the $$$$$.
