    Interesting timing with there being £110 tickets available via fr's on the hour all day today working out at £1,320.

    In addition to that there are 3 seats available in the 6.30 fr, which runs nightly, £330.

    5 x 1k nightly rewards fr's.

    Quick scan of the lobby shows 3 x £20 fr's, its 5pm so some have presumably already run.

    Oh, and a 40k fr festival starts tomorrow.

    But apart from that, what have the Romans ever done for us?

    There's plenty of freerolls if you play enough Poker on the site to earn entry.

    Tbh I dont use the freerolls I have, I find they play more akin to any 2 bingo than poker. I suffer enough from tilt issues anyway and dont see how getting my big holdings run down by multiple players coz its free is going to help

    NO- every day there are 7 (SEVEN) freerolls with 8 from Monday to Friday.
    1.00am £20gtd Turbo FR
    6.45am £20gtd Turbo FR
    10.00am £20gtd Turbo FR
    12.00pm £20gtd Turbo FR
    2.00pm £20gtd Turbo FR
    5.30pm £20gtd PLO FR
    6.30pm Sunday Major FR (top 3 places win a seat into Sunday Major although this may change if another promo (Vegas, UKOPS, Super Sunday, SPT) is running). These are everyday but from Monday to Friday
    7.30pm £1000gtd Rewards FR (also may change due to various promos being run with added seats as prizes)
    These are without the excellent promos that run with extra FR's taking place.
    Not enough FR's? I think there are but that is just my opinion...

    sky do a great job with freerolls and promos - I fail to see how you could be dissatisfied with something they put on for free

    Always amazes me just how much people complain about the free stuff.

    Only got to look at some threads in the past-the majority of poker-related complaints relate to stuff Sky give us for free. Sky does not get everything right-no site does. But they do try, despite the total lack of thanks.

    Do people honestly feel that the free stuff isn't value for money? Would you prefer a little "treasure chest" containing free points towards your next meaningless treasure chest?

    Where did i say i am compaining about something free esssexphill? i asked a question because of the amount of freeroll entries per day the other 2 sites 888poker and pokerstars that i am signed upto seem to have alot more daily 2 three times more to the point. My most general point though is most of them dont require earnings in the first place to enter? i am a big fan of skys, vegas and bingo mostly. and although i like there android table layout better than any, i think they are lagging behind here. ps i deposit to all 3 weekly but wont mention the dpsts weekly bonuses either :D

    Both 888 & 'Stars have a (much) bigger player pool than Sky, therefore make more in rake to allow more FR's to be offered. As to having to 'pay' on Sky, you only need 10 points to play in 6 of the FR's, 20pts in the 24 hours leading up to the 6.30pm FR, 50 points the previous week to qualify for the 5x £1000 Rewards FR's and when you join you are given 500 points to start you off

    Complaining? Words like "barely one", "lagging behind". With your first ever post, trying to demand change via a poll. That sort of stuff.

    Then, what Andy (SidV) said. You are not comparing like with like. Firstly, size-Stars are hundreds of times bigger, 888 many times bigger. Then there is reach-the others are worldwide, this UK/Ire only. Don't just look at frequency-look at total prizes, and divide by the entrants.

    Stars freerolls are awful. In every sense. 888? Prob similar to here.

    Sky freerolls? Put it this way. I've been to Vegas from one. And I am going again next week, for free. So I get tetchy when people complain.

    Incredible poll.

    A few weeks ago, I won a £4,000 Las Vegas package, from a freeroll! B)
