What are Syncronized Breaks?

Most breaks for multi-table poker tournaments for all online poker rooms now have syncronized breaks. Most all breaks for multi-table tournaments, even sit 'n goes begin at 55 minutes past each hour and in most cases last for 5 minutes.

Bodog Poker is one of the few poker rooms online that does not have syncronized breaks.

Syncronized breaks are very helpful if you are playing more than one tournament at a particular room or playing multiple poker rooms.

Playing Poker Freerolls

Are Poker Freeroll Tournaments Really Free?

The answer is yes, they are free to play. Sometimes, freerolls do have a rebuy and add-on option for a small fee.

There are different types of freeroll poker tournaments. The first type we are going to talk about is the basic Prize Pool Freeroll. This freeroll has a stated prize pool and pays out cash money to the winning players. Rules for cashing out money from freerolls varies from poker room to poker room, so check the terms and conditions for the room you are playing. Merge Poker Rooms allow you to cashout after 7 days have passed from the time you won. Other rooms may ask that you make a set number of "points". Points can be easily achieved at "ring games" or "tables".

The next type of poker freeroll we are going to explore is the satellite freeroll. Many poker rooms offer freeroll satellite tournaments. In this type of freeroll, you need to "place" to be included in the main tournament or another leg of the satellite series. Often the satellite is to a freeroll with a nice prize pool.

The last type of freeroll is the points freeroll. For this freeroll you need to redeem the required amount of "Poker Points" to enter. Prizes vary from cash to seats to other tournaments.

Have fun playing poker freeroll tournaments. They are a great way to build your bankroll without risk.
