Free poker tournaments are daily events that happen on a lot of the best internet poker rooms. Freerolls are greatly loved by the poker playing community as they offer the poker enthusiasts the chance to aquire some bona fide cash without losing any. The buyin to these freerolls is – like the name suggests – free of charge and jackpot cash can vary from a handful of dollars for placing to a few hundred dollars for winning the huge freeroll hold’em poker tournaments.

So how come the poker websites have freerolls? Is it as a result of their incredibly altruistic nature and the reality that they make vast amounts of $$$$$ so they feel a moral accountability to provide a bit of it back?

What do you think!

No of course it isn’t, the reason that the huge poker rooms provide free tournaments is to lure people to their web site.

Here’s the theory in a abridge form – You come across a poker site that has an awesome freeroll, it charges you nada to enroll in and you are able to win 100 dollars. You think "excellent!" and you head over to the poker site and sign up as a member so that you can compete in the freeroll. You gamble and get knocked out early and are ticked off mainly because you perceive you should have faired much better, or you go close to winning and so you’re wanting even more action. What do you do? You wager some cash at the poker room and bet on a different poker game!

Always investigate the freerolls for cash-out constraints, you’ll nearly always have to wager on some hands for real money before they permit you take the money out. Generally this is on a 1 to 1 basis, so if you win 20 dollars at the no charge poker tournament you will have to have played for $20 in real $$$$ in order for you to be able to withdraw the cash.
