To be eligible for our freeroll tournaments you need to signup for an account through our exclusive links and make a minimum deposit.
When you have done a minimum deposit to your account you need to send your account number to me in a private message.
Me our ixgames staff will check your account number to see if you are eligible. If we can see your account number you will be sent the freeroll password.
You are not eligible if you send us an old account that isn't an ixgames account or referral.
If you are already a member at the poker room through our exclusive link you will not have to do anything. You will receive the password in an email from the poker room.
Accounts must have done a minimum deposit and participated in real money activity.
We are giving freerolls to those that actively plays poker in cash games / buy-in tournaments etc.
We want to make sure that our freerolls are quality and not only based on how many players that are registered. Also giving back action to those that support ixgames. By signing up through our exclusive links and making a minimum deposit you are already eligible for future private tournaments by ixgames.
Following major poker rooms are ixgames approved:"
if people are members of all these sites already, how do they get eligible for the freerolls? or are you telling me we cant?... thats some SERIOUS bs. how do you EVER expect people to support your site when you have guidelines like this?.... you want "quality" for your freerolls, yet you wont let people who've been playing for years... no, you want people who are NEWWWWWWW to online poker to signup through your site, most of which probably barely know how to play.. thats quality😟
done now.. but you should seriously rethink this.
I don't think you see the real point or meaning with this.
We could easily fill freerolls with participants in 1,000's.
We are giving back freerolls to those that have earnt them. For those players this means quality not for you perhabst. Lets say all of our players are new at online poker (not all of them are though), still they support us and we will still give back tournaments and such to them. They will learn and they will raise their skill if their mind is up to it.
Lets say you already have an account at most major poker rooms as it sounds you are a veteran when it comes to online poker, then perhabst ixgames are not for you. I still hope you will come back reading news, promotions and other good information that we publish at a regular basis.
If we would give out passwords on the forum, this would mean we have to think about all the users that SHARES passwords over all the other poker forums and sites online that already is specialized in just sharing passwords.
This also means that those sites/forums will have a large base of players ONLY LOOKING FOR FREEROLL PASSWORDS. This is something we DONT support at ixgames. Publishing passwords on the forum has been done in the past resulting in freeroll tournaments with 1,000's of participants and 70% of them are not even a member at the ixgames forum.
I really hope you see this from a different point of view now BadAssOutlaw.
