Big Bet Poker is getting into the holiday spirt of giving by hosting five online poker freerolls every other day from now through Monday, December 27, 2010. If you missed the first day of poker freerolls yesterday, get into the poker action starting tomorrow. Here is the schedule for each day of the Big Bet Poker online poker freerolls.

Real-money players are all automatically entered into 12 48-hour holiday dashes — the top ten point earners from real money play share in $1000 prize pool. $350 is the prize for the first-place finish, and there’s an additional $100 bonus awarded to any player that wins consecutive dashes (one bonus per player).

Big Bet Poker is on the Merge Poker Network, and welcomes players from all US states.

I’ve just finished a long-overdue update to the online poker freeroll schedule that lists over 200 online poker freerolls across a dozen or so online poker rooms. The online poker freerolls schedule page displays all online poker freerolls for the current day in an easily filterable list. In addition, there is a PDF version of a full week’s worth of online poker freerolls.

Check out the schedule and use it to plan your attack on the many online poker freerolls that are available.

Let me know when you take down a online poker freeroll tournament. And please — tell your friends about this online poker freerolls schedule. They’ll appreciate it!

I’ve combined the online poker freeroll schedule from several online poker sites. You can filter the schedule by day of week, time of day, and game, etc. There’s a freeroll running 24-7, and nearly all of them are available to US players.

The Poker Player’s Alliance (PPA), the leading poker grassroots advocacy group with more than one million members nationwide, seeks to raise additional funds leading up to a crucial vote this summer on legislation to license and regulate online poker. On July 1, their goal is to raise $50K.

Rand Paul, the son of Ron Paul, has entered the 2010 Kentucky Senate Race. This is good news for Kentucky residents who feel that the state’s current leadership’s attempts to seize 141 Internet domain names is just plain silly and a waste of money. Rand Paul, like his father, is a firm proponent of preserving personal liberty; if elected, this belief will no doubt be reflected in Paul ceasing the state’s efforts to seize these domain names and other efforts to block access to online poker by Kentucky residents.

You can contribute to Rand Paul’s campaign, if you are so inclined.

This one’s a game changer. We’ve added a sweet side pot to select tables to bring you a more intense kind of poker – and UltimateBet is the only place to play it.

It’s called Seven Deuce and it’s guaranteed to bring more action, bigger bets, larger pots and insane rivalries to the tables in a way that makes most regular high stakes games look like amateur hour.

What’s the Deal?

Monstrous pots are what online poker is all about. And Seven Deuce delivers.

Everyone who sits down at a Seven Deuce table places a prop bet into an additional side pot. The next player at the table to win a hand of online poker holding 7-2 as their hole cards wins the side pot.

Now here’s where it gets interesting. Winning with 7-2 isn’t about calling every raise and getting lucky on the river. It’s about playing your cards like a champion regardless of the hand you’ve been dealt.

Winning while holding the nuts is one thing. But winning with 7-2 after enticing big bets and forcing everyone to fold on the river? Now that’s just nuts.

More Action. More Intensity. More Money.

The side pot is a magical addition that dramatically changes the game in a way you won’t believe.

With the additional side pot, you’ll find more players bluffing with 7-2, hoping that everyone will fold like a cheap chair so that they can grab the side pot and laugh in everyone’s face. And that means you’ll find lots of people calling big bluffs to try to stop the worst hand in poker from winning big.

You’ll also find people playing amazing hole cards but trying to fool the table into thinking they’re bluffing so that they can lure in the bets and snag an even bigger pot.

And that means enormous bets and more action from pretty much everyone at the table. It’s a crazy circle and you’re going to love it.

Feeding the Pot

Each time you join a Seven Deuce table, you pay into the side pot. You do not have to feed the pot again until someone wins with a 7-2. If you leave a table, you’ll get your side pot money back.

Winning the Pot

To win the side pot, just take down a pot with 7-2 at any point in a hand. You’ll have to show everyone that you were holding 7-2, but it’ll definitely be worth it.
