Free poker tournaments are daily events that take place on quite a few of the best internet poker sites. Freerolls are greatly admired by the poker wagering community as they offer the poker players the ability to win some bonafide $$$$$ without losing any. The entry to these freerolls is – as their titles suggests – free of charge and prize money can range from a couple of bucks for finishing near the top to hundreds of dollars for winning the big freeroll holdem poker tournaments.

So why do the poker web sites have free tournaments? Is it as a result of their incredibly generous nature and the fact that they acquire massive sums of $$$$ so they have a societal accountability to give a bit of it back?

What do you think!

No of course it isn’t, the reason that the great poker sites offer freerolls is to lure folks to their website.

Here is the theory boiled down – You come across a poker site that has an excellent freeroll, it costs you nothing to enroll in and you are able to come away with 100 dollars. You think "awesome!" and you head over to the poker site and sign up as a member so that you can gamble on the freeroll. You can bet and get knocked out early and are ticked off because you feel you should have performed much better, or you get near the end and so you’re seeking even more excitement. What do you do? You spend some cash at the site and wager on a different poker game!

Make sure to check out the free tournaments for cash-out constraints, you will nearly always have to compete in some hands for actual $$$$ before they allow you take the money out. Often this is on a 1 to 1 basis, so if you capture twenty dollars at the free poker tournament you’ll have to have bet for twenty dollars in bona fide $$$$$ in order for you to be able to claim the $$$$.
