good freerolls

[Wyvver]

I have spent so much time playing and searching for freerolls now, I figuered I gotta post something about it in case someone else wants to play some of them

Ill just post all the sites that I check sometimes for freerolls and what they offer.

1. The network that includes Royal Vegas, Dream Poker, Intertops Poker and several
others: You can only register the same Nickname for all those Rooms so you can play
their freerolls only at one of those sites (they share the same freerolls).
They have several 1000$ and 200$ freerolls everyday, with 6000 to 10000 players joining.
With 10k players you have to be very very lucky to get into the money though, but still
I like those the most.

2. Poker World:
You can earny playmoney (which is insanely easy), then when you have 250k you can
buy into a 1-table sng where the winner of this one gets an entry to a 3000$ deep pocket tourney.

Then they have HappyHour Freerolls with a pricepool of 100$ and a max of 1000 players, and
they have freerolls where you get PokerWorld points, but you cant buy into tourneys with them
as far as I know so they arent worth much.

Last thing is, at Sunday and Saturday they have a freeroll with a max of 350 players, where
the first 3 get a seat to the WSOP monday at poker world.

3.Ultimate Bet:
They have freerolls to the million dollar qualifier. Every new account can join one, then you
have to pay UB points to join another one.
Also they have freerolls that award UB points, which you can use to enter other tournaments
which is kinda nice, and 500$ freerolls, both of which have several thousand players though.

4. Pacific Poker:
They have freerolls for 50$, but not to many and the structure ends in a crapshoot, Im not
playing them anymore.

5. Absolute Poker:
You can join the Quater Million Qualifier, which has around 1k people if I remember correctly.
However I joined one of them and now cant join another, so they have some sort of restriction
(either one free per new player, or one free per week or something like that). EDIT: The restriction is, every new player can join one Qualifier for free, then you need "Qtr Million Points" to buy-in. They can be accumulated by playing real money games.
Also they have 50$ freerolls, but with a slower structure than Pacific (also alot of players
though), and freerolls for other crappy stuff.

6. Poker Stars:
They have the 50$ freerolls with as much as 9k players, but the first few places also advance
to weekly round two which has 1000$ pricepool and not that many players. The PS freerolls
take by far the longest though and spendig 5hrs for 50$ is kinda insane


When Im bord I will play any of those, between those 6 sites you nearly always have a freeroll or
more going. If they are worth the time is another question :P


Edit: All those freerolls are insane until about half the players are gone.
People go all-in with all kinds of crap, but the best tactics seems to be to play only the best hands at the beginning because every hand you play has a high chance to end in a huge all-in battle.
Later it gets better and you can actually play.

The best poker in freerolls suprisingly was when I got the 250k playmoney on PokerWorld and joined the 1-table SNG, this was really good, maybe I was lucky.

ah I forgot to add HoldemPoker.com:
They have MiniTurbos, that dont have to many players (less than 1k I think) and a 122$ pricepool (top 20 paid), plus top 20 get a ticket to Poker Classic, which consists of several stages and leads to a tournament with 5million price pool (at least so says the description).

Anyone considering the freerolls for the first time should HEED this advice. When he says crap ... he means CRAP. And, as he says, you should realize that each and every hand played early (usually during the first 30-45 minutes) will have the possiblity of being an "all in" hand. So don't be surprised if you push with AA and find yourself up against 9 3os and then watch as he flops 2 pair. It can suck for the first hour but play tight and the play will improve later.

As soon as you make anything from these freerolls stop playing them and take the money you won to RING and pwn.

If you mean the 250k playmoney to 3000$ deep pocket satellite:
I won the seat to the deep pocket event, so yes it is real (I couldnt play
though because it started at 3am or something for me).

If you mean the Freeroll to WSOP satellite, I have not won this one but I see no reason why it wouldnt be real. Here it shows how it works:

Paradise Poker has a Freeroll with a $1,150,000 prize pool, where the top 500 places are payed. It starts in 33 days, and there are around 4800 people signed up for it now. With that big a prize pool the odds don't seem that far to get some cash.
