Freeroll refers to poker tournaments that are organised around the world and online where it is possible to gain free entry into the tournaments by avoiding the buy-in. This is usually obtained by winning in qualifying rounds of other tournaments, although some poker rooms have true freerolls that are free to enter and have cash or gift prizes associated with them.

Some online poker rooms offer daily freerolls for their members that can buy-in with collected iPoints or can qualify by having completed previous tournaments. Some also offer beginners freerolls for members who have been signed up for a certain period, which is usually 90 days prior to the start of the tournament.

Playing in a freeroll tournament is no different from playing in any other Poker tournament so these are a good way to hone your poker skills for no outlay.
