Many still believe that a poker freeroll is played by thousands and the winner only gets a few bucks for their troubles. Well whilst this may be true for a small number of free rolls this is by no means a fair reflection of the poker free roll scene. There is no doubt that compared to a couple of years ago online poker is not so popular as it was. This is due to many factors the main being the ban on US citizens playing online although many still do play on the larger sites such as Stars. Nowadays the smaller networks use free rolls as a way to attract new players to their sites and such free rolls can attract in some cases less then 100 runners. So what is in real terms a true free roll? A free roll is a poker tournament which many call a mtt (multi table tournament) where you can enter 100% free and normally the top 10 finishes win money or items such as Ipods or even holidays in some cases. The only requirements to play the free roll is that you sign up to the site hosting the event and no deposit is required.

Finding quality freerolls with decent prizes and low numbers of runners though can be sometimes very difficult. ...
... Many of the lists which appear on the internet are out of date and you find yourself signing up to a site when the monthly free roll has been discontinued many months ago. Other sites list free rolls which seem to be free until you read the small print and find out that you either need to play a certain amount of raked hands or even make a small deposit. These to me are not free rolls! Searching the internet I have found a great online site that not only list most available freerolls but also set up private freerolls for their members. Best of all you can join the site for free! Members also post screenshots of their winning which total over £11,000 in cash plus holidays and items such as Ipod Touch. The name of this site is Poker Freeroll World and I class it as the best freeroll site on the internet!

If you Google for Poker Freeroll World and look through the members winning screenshots you will be surprised to see that some of the free rolls have less then 70 runners with the top 10 players being paid. It is a no brainer to calculate that you are getting generous odds of 6/1 to cash. Freerolls are not just a great way to generate a second income but a great way to develop a winning poker game for free as proven by one of the best poker players in the world Annette "Annette_15" Obrestad. Annette has improve from playing poker freerolls to winning millions online and live including the European WSOP for over a million pounds.

If you are new to the game of poker there are many online communities that are packed with winning tips to help you become a winning player. One of the best UK online poker communities is the Eat My Stack Poker Forum which caters for players of all abilities and again is free to join. So if you have an hour or two spare each week why not give free rolls a try because if you are successful you could win a few bucks, payment for your next holiday or even a generous second income!
