bet365, one of the UK’s and the world’s leading online gambling sites, has a strong reputation for running excellent and frequent promotions. It seems like almost every other week a new announcement is made, offering great rewards to users of their online casino or sportsbook. This time it’s poker players who should be getting excited, as in an effort to boost their numbers bet365 recently launched a New Depositor Freeroll promotion, which will see new users to the site rewarded handsomely.
bet365 is a very well-known brand within the United Kingdom that has also made its mark around the world, primarily through its role as a leading online casino and sportsbook. The site also offers poker, however, with both cash games and tournaments running in a variety of different variants, with everything from Texas Holdem and Omaha to 7 Card Stud and Razz. Players from the United States are sadly not accepted at this time, but if you’re from virtually anywhere else in the world you shouldn’t have any trouble getting in on the action.
Their latest promotion is, as said, a New Depositor Freeroll. Freeroll tournaments are an awesome way to get your poker bankroll started, as they cost literally nothing to enter, but always boast a prizepool of either cash or entry into a more valuable tournament, giving you the chance to play for serious money. Unfortunately for existing bet365 players, these New Depositor Freerolls are, as the name suggests, only for new members to bet365 making their first deposit. If you’ve never played at bet365 before this is excellent news, as it means that the field of competition is significantly reduced.
If you’re still worrying about having to battle you way through innumerable players to make the money, you can think again, as bet365 is not simply hosting one large freeroll, but rather one freeroll every week. Simply sign up and make your first deposit of $10 or more, and you’ll automatically receive a Tournament Token granting you entry into the next freeroll. The tournaments take place each Wednesday at 19:30GMT, and the qualifying period is the Monday-Sunday before that, so if you sign up on a Monday you won’t be sitting at the tournament table in two days’ time, but rather you’ll have to wait for the following week.
Once you’ve signed up and made your deposit, it’s as easy as locating the freeroll in the Tournaments lobby of the bet365 client and pressing the register button. Each week’s freeroll has a prize pool of €100, and when you consider that there can’t be very many new users creating accounts and making deposits every week, this promotion starts to look very profitable indeed. Given that entry is completely free, these tournaments are also a great way to get your feet wet if you’ve never played online poker before and want to become familiar with how it all works!
