Free Online Texas Hold em Tournaments - Learn And Improve Your Poker Game
De CidesaWiki
Many of the popular online card rooms today give you the chance to play Texas hold em Tournaments at no cost:
1) Freerolls and 2) Play Money tournaments, where you could play big field multi-table tournaments (MTT's) down to a little 6-handed Sit-n-Go table.
FREEROLLS
A "free roll" tournament is a regular poker tournament with a $0. 00 buy-in, thus the name "freerolls". The nice thing is they still pay out "real money! " Through the duration of every day, on line card rooms have freeroll tournaments scheduled, and often times have promotional freeroll Sit-n-Go's every 5-10 minutes.
Freerolls are a good way for people to establish and create a "real money" bankroll with no real money deposit. It may take awhile to cash-in, as many freeroll tournaments are huge, some going up to 30, 000 players in one tournament. But it's free, fun, fills your poker crave, offers you a great way to learn and improve your game. Plus you will ultimately get "in-the-money" (ITM) as you become a much better tournament player. When you cash-in at your first freeroll tournament, you'll feel just like you just won the WSOP (lol)!
PLAY MONEY
The other option you have is to play in "Play Money" games. Similar to the freeroll schedule, there are always tournaments and Sit-n-Go games ready for Play Money. This is a great way to play as much poker as you want, whenever you want, for FREE!
At the same time, you've got a "play chip" bankroll to manage and try to develop. While real cash is not at risk, you will still have a great poker experience on the Play Money tables. It's perfect for beginner's to understand the basics of Texas Hold 'Em and basic poker strategy. Even for more experienced poker players, Play Money is a good way to try out different strategies in their game without risking any real cash.
WHERE TO PLAY
The big and more popular online poker sites are: Full Tilt Poker (), PokerStars () and Cake Poker (). I personally play at Full Tilt Poker because many of my favorite professional poker players not merely endorse the site, but they play there too. The software is excellent, the user interface is beautiful and they are constantly making improvements with their play and technology.
To start out playing on the web, simply sign-up at one of many online card rooms, install their free software application, and you'll be in a totally free tournament in no time. Good luck and have fun! See you on the virtual felt of online poker.
