what are free rolls?

[scrawnybob]

hi Claire

freerolls are poker tournaments which you can enter for free but have real money prizes

basically most online poker sites run them for players and new signups to try the software and get used to playing on the site

they also run them for players who dont want to deposit and who want to try and build a bankroll for free

generally they are a great way to gain some experience of large multi table tournaments without putting any of your money in

if you win money then it goes into your poker account and you would be able to use it at the real money tables the same as any money you might deposit

most sites have a rake requirement you must clear before you can withdraw any freeroll winnings - but this is generally easy enough to clear and most freerollers are trying to build a bankroll rather than cash out straight away

you will find the players in freerolls as a whole are a bit crazy - allins etc so its not a great place to gain too much experience over the long term - but definately worth playing when starting out

hope thats a help
