Plenty of freerolls just aren’t worth the time, unless you’re looking for experience. But, even if you just want to raise your skill, the smaller freerolls aren’t ideal for that. The prize pool is insignificant, so nobody’s playing realistic strategies.
But when the prize pool reaches several hundreds of dollars, that changes. Serious money makes these freerolls worth playing.
Here are freerolls from seven different trusted poker sites, and each one runs in October.
#1. GGPoker Freerolls in October
The biggest poker site has the biggest freerolls, of course.
Check out GGPoker’s October freeroll schedule below, then we’ll explain.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | NoLimit Freeroll | $0 | $100 | N/A | Password |
| Saturdays | 100K Weekly Freeroll | $0 | $100,000 | 16:00 | Ticket |
| Sunday to Friday | Daily Freeroll (feeder to 100K) | $0 | 2,000 / 4,000 tickets | 10:00, 22:00 | Ticket |
| Saturdays | GGPoker Community Freeroll | $0 | $1,000 | 18:00 | Password on X / Facebook / Telegram / Reddit |
One of GGPoker’s standout promotions is the Weekly $100,000 Freeroll, a free tournament you qualify for, and cannot enter directly. Qualify by depositing $500, playing 1,000 hands in cash games, winning a Daily Freeroll, or referring a friend.
GG’s Community Freeroll is genuinely one of the highest value free tournaments on the list, but it will take some watching to get the password. The best way to get the password is to switch notifications on for GGPoker’s social media, or reach out to GipsyTeam Support and ask there.
#2. WPT Global Freerolls in October
WPT Global freerolls are consistent, and offer solid prize pools every day of the week. There’s $3,500 split across six freerolls each day, perfect for building up a bankroll.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | $1,000 Daily Freeroll | $0 | $1,000 | 13:02 | Open (verified accounts) |
| Daily | $500 Daily Freeroll | $0 | $500 | 05:02, 07:02, 09:02, 11:02, 15:02 | Open (verified accounts) |
Unlike GGPoker’s schedule, WPT Global doesn’t need you to monitor any social media accounts or qualify for the next event. Just enter the freerolls and go for deep runs.
These fields often grow to be massive, but luckily you have plenty of chances each week.
#3. CoinPoker Freerolls in October
CoinPoker does freerolls differently. Instead of just giving real money prizes, players can work from these free tournaments into massive MTTs like the CoinMillion, or The One with $5,000,000 GTD.
Basically all of their flagship events get supported by these freerolls. Play one and finish well, enter the step satellites, then the direct satellite next. If you can do that, you’ve turned a freeroll into a ticket worth hundreds of dollars.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | 100 Seats Freeroll to $1,000 GTD Daily Dollar and $5,000 GTD Sunday Dollar | $0 | $100 | 16:10 | Open |
| Daily | LevelUp Freeroll | $0 | $50 | 15:00–20:00, hourly | Open |
| Daily | LevelUp Freeroll | $0 | $20 | 13:00, 14:00, 21:00, 22:00, 23:00 | Open |
| Daily | LevelUp Freeroll | $0 | $10 | 00:00, 01:00, 09:00–12:00 | Open |
| Daily | LevelUp Freeroll | $0 | $5 | 02:00–04:00 | Open |
For the players who just want to leave the freeroll with some cash, CoinPoker doesn’t get above the $50 GTD mark. These run all day, every day, but the winners will probably only walk away with low double digit prizes.
#4. 888poker Freerolls in October
On 888poker, the value lies in the Discord and the 888pokerTV Special Freeroll, both with $500 GTD prize pools.
Pair these with the $100 GTD freeroll, running twice-a-day, and 888poker is one of the more solid free tournament poker sites on our list.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | The $100 Freeroll | $0 | $100 | 14:00, 17:00 | Open |
| Weekly, Mon | 888pokerTV Special Freeroll | $0 | $500 | 19:30 | Password |
| Every 2 weeks, Fri (25.09) | 888poker Discord Special Freeroll | $0 | $500 | 20:30 | Password |
First time depositors also get offered a selection of up to $2,000 in freerolls, but it’s a one time offer, and technically isn’t free.
#5. QQPoker Freerolls in October
QQPoker is a site that some people aren’t familiar with, but their freerolls rival (and beat) well-known brands like ACR Poker.
What makes the freeroll schedule attractive is how regular the tournaments are; 6 times per day for both the $50 and $100 Daily Beginners. That’s about $900 in prizes per day.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | Daily Beginner #1 | $0 | $50 | 10:30, 11:30, 12:30, 13:30, 14:30, 17:30 (whole series) | New players, 10 tickets after phone verification |
| Daily | Daily Beginner #2 | $0 | $100 | 10:30, 11:30, 12:30, 13:30, 14:30, 17:30 (whole series) | New players |
#6. RedStar Poker Freerolls in October
The freerolls at RedStar aren’t the most worthwhile way to spend your time, unless you’re in our private free tournament. It has a smaller field, so the prize is far less split up by the time the event ends.
Open-to-the-public €25 (~USD 28) and €50 (~USD 57) freerolls also run every day, but you’ll only win a small amount for victory in these.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | 25 Daily Freeroll | $0 | €25 | 01:05, 06:00, 12:00 | Depositors |
| Fridays | GipsyTeam Freeroll | $0 | €50 | 17:00 | GipsyTeam sign-up |
| Daily | €50 Daily Freeroll | $0 | €50 | 20:00 | Depositors |
#7. WPN Network Freerolls in October (ACR Poker)
For a network with some of the biggest real money MTTs in online poker, the freerolls on WPN are surprisingly low value.
Still, they do run very frequently, starting six times a day.
| Date / Frequency | Tournament Name | Buy-in | GTD | Start (UTC) | Access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | $50 GTD Freeroll | $0 | $50 | 01:05, 09:05, 12:05, 16:05, 19:05, 22:05 | Open |
But even with consistent freerolls throughout the day, the value just isn’t there. Top players will walk away with a few dollars after multiple hours of hard work.
