simply, its good business. helps promote the site/forum and bring in more money in the long run.

most poker rooms try to shedule freeolls in their sites for the reason that they want as many players in their site as possible,that makes their site know and give it a free advertisement because of the mouth to ear advertisement,another reason is that the freerolls are not very expensive and the beneficts are enoumous,another reason is even if you win a freeroll, the money will stay in the poker room,most of the poker will not pay it untill you have a certain number of ranked hands.I think another reason is if you try a freeroll ,you might be interested to play for real money after you have confidence in yourself .

I think all the sites like this one that sponsor freerolls are great. Not only are the tournaments fun to play in but they introduce you to great forums and keep you up to date with the promotions for many different online poker rooms. I've gotten my bankroll started at a few different rooms with sponsored freerolls. It was a great way to get my confidence up with playing with real money before I actually made deposits with my own money.

i agree. all sites that sponsor freerolls are amazing and my lifesavers lol. Its not to bad of a part time job playing these. i mean i enjoy them and could make a few bucks off it.

nms4912, there is truth in your words - freerolls can be really profitable and if a player is good he can build up his/her bankroll without making a deposit
