Build Your Bankroll: Freeroll Style

July 28 2010, PokerNews Staff

Not everyone has a huge bankroll to deposit online to play poker with. Even some of your favorite players had meager beginnings online at one time. They just knew what to do to build on what they had. Unlike some of the greats like Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey and Daniel Negreanu who had to grind it out for their bankrolls, online phenoms like Annette "Annette_15" Obrestad started from nothing and built their bankrolls by playing freerolls. Online poker sites run freerolls frequently, and if you're a Club PokerNews member, you're one up on the other grinders trying to build a roll online because PokerNews offers exclusive freerolls weekly with huge prize pools.

PartyPoker Summer Step-Up

The PartyPoker Summer Step-Up is bringing you a series of tournaments and freerolls to help you pad your bankroll. All you have to do is sign up for a PartyPoker account through PokerNews for an awesome deal whereby PartyPoker will give you $50 FREE with no deposit just for signing up for an account. Then, you can play one of three tournaments that range from $1 to $10 buy-ins to gain entry or acquire 10 PartyPoker Points to buy in to Step D, which is a $100 freeroll. The top 100 players who finish in Step D gain entry into the $1,000 Step E freeroll.

Here's more on the PartyPoker Summer Step Up.

UltimateBet and Absolute Poker $1,500 Freerolls

Signing up for an UltimateBet or Absolute Poker account makes you eligible for the series of $1,500 freerolls.

I think this is terribly misleading. It's not a freeroll if you have to deposit money or play some cash hands in order to play the tournament. Shame on poker news. Stop calling these freerolls. They're not freerolls. A freeroll has no requirements for cash deposits or cash play.
