Freerolls is a widely used term for free online games where you can win actual money prizes whether it be it be in traditional casino games, bingo or poker without investing money yourself. According to Wikipedia the term freeroll origins from the ‘Early 1950s Las Vegas, when guests would often be given a "free roll" of nickels to play at the slot machines upon check-in. Guests would often ask for their "free rolls" and the words became fused together and expanded to mean any complimentary gaming bonus.’ (Wikipedia) Today the term freerolls is mostly used online and is used by the casinos for two purposes: 1. Rewarding existing customers for using their gambling site. 2. Attracting new customers. Play money vs. freerolls Every casino or poker room with a bit respect for themselves have a play money version, where you always can play for free – if you lose all your play money you can reload next day and at some sites you can reload several times a day. If you win a lot of play money – that’s nice - unfortunately the play money has no real money value they are just for play – nothing else. Playing freerolls is a lot like playing with play money – you enter a tournament or get some free spins but the difference is that you actually get the chance to win something real! In traditional casino games you are always ending up losing money in the end – you can play the perfect systems – but you will still only win 98 % of the money invested in a game if you play the perfect game in some very specific games like Black Jack. This is naturally ok – as long as the players are aware of this fact. But to us at Poker-Freeroller it amazes us that people want to waste their time and money on those traditional casino games – even on freerolls - when they might be able to start a poker career playing poker freerolls. A lot of poker pros have started their professional career playing for pennies. I am not saying that it is easy to make money on poker. Only between 3-5 % of all poker players can be considered winning players but that is a lot more than 0 % which is the case in Bingo games and traditional casino games. Poker freerolls What defines a poker freeroll? Unlike traditional casino games there are no such things as free spins or ‘rolls’ in poker. Instead the term poker freerolls is used to describe free poker tournaments. These poker freerolls varies very much from one site to the other in character, size, price pools, types of prices (from a few bonus dollars to real live events) and different kind of restrictions (from none at all to poker points made or regional or national restrictions).
