Month End Means a New Tourney Calendar and Another PSOC Event

It's just about the end of July and Pokerspace will be putting out it's new tournament calendar for the month of August. There are going to changes nearly across the board. From freerolls to new cash buy-in tournaments there's a lot of new tournaments coming down the pipe. New partnerships and deals are sure to blossom this August as the online poker world gears up for all of the major tournament series from Full Tilt's FTOPS series to UltimateBet's UBOP and PokerStars SCOOP tournaments. In all there's roughly $30 million in guaranteed tournaments to be won.

Pokerspace Online Championships Event #5 (Fixed Limit Hold'em)

So far the PSOC has been a smashing success with thousands of dollars in prize money and guaranteed cash. Every tournament has had a prize pool at least 50% over the guaranteed limit and Event #4 was the best yet, going nearly to $1,500 which would have been about $700 over the guarantee of $800! All of these huge prize pools are certainly helped out by the fact that every guaranteed prize pool is supported by half free added cash. The upcoming PSOC Event #5 is sure to be no different as it is packing a solid $600 GTD with $300 of it added cash!

There's more free money going down at Pokerspace then ever before. With thousands of dollars worth of Free Added Cash to tournament in the Pokerspace Online Championships, the existing Pokerspace tournaments that have huge cash added like the $10+$100 on UB, and the $300+ in Free Poker Money deals too. There's so much that Pokerspace members can gain in August it's ridiculous.

Pokerspace Online Championships Event #4 This Weekend

Another week gone by and the weekend is now upon us and of course so is Event #4 (NL Hold'em 6-max) of the Pokerspace Online Championships. This game is sure to boast an impressive prize pool that out stretches the last two events and may give Event #1 a run for it's money. At $800 guaranteed and $400 of it free added money, there a very good chance that it will grow past $1,000 and maybe all the way to $1,200 or more.

UltimateBet Hosting Event #4

They have easily the best customer service out there and oh yeah Pokerspace is giving away Free Poker Money deals there so you can get started for free and play against thousands of players without waiting hours for a table to fill up. Check it out today, because Sunday's Event #4 is coming up fast.

How to Start With No Money and Walk Away with Hundreds From Pokerspace

Over the past several years Pokerspace has been the home to thousands of poker players who want to come together and discuss the finer points of the game. One thing that does come up from time to time is a horrible bad beat that leaves a player's bankroll bust. Luckily, Pokerspace has developed a series of great promotions and tournaments that get people from zero to $100 in less time than you might think.

First, the Obvious: Free Poker Money

Let's get the first and best way Pokerspace awards those who grace it with their membership: Free Poker Money deals. Pokerspace has brought together a bunch of great free bankroll deals to amazing rooms like Absolute Poker, UltimateBet, and the exclusive Power Poker bankroll. In all members can except to be awarded with $300+ just for becoming a member. But of course there's more (no this isn't a terrible infomercial).

PS Points and Freeroll Tournaments

Pokerspace has build a tremendous currency system called PS Points that allow users to enter tournaments. These poker loyalty points can be earned through linking poker room accounts to Pokerspace but also through special PS Point freeroll tournaments, taking courses and passing tests in the school courses section, and also through regular activity on Pokerspace. These points can be redeemed for poker room cash add-ons. Win a few PS Point freerolls and a occasional PS Point game and you are sure to be close to an add-on.

There are also cash freerolls that Pokerspace runs on a weekly basis that really do hand out real money. These tournament run on various poker rooms and some do cost PS Points to enter, but this is a great way to keep non-Pokerspace members away and push the player field down. Free cash and poker tournament experience, what else could be better? If you use great bankroll management and careful game moves there's an excellent possibility that having cash to play with online should never be a problem if you're a Pokerspace member.

Free Poker Money Deals Increased Again and PSOC

For the third week in a row Pokerspace has raised its daily limit for its Free Poker Money Deals. This time the Power Poker deal was upped to 25 per day! In all Pokerspace is now giving out 145 free poker bankrolls, over 4 different poker rooms for a value well over $300 to a single person! This means players have the best chance of scoring big for free.

Pokerspace Online Championships Picking Up Again

Event #4 in the Pokerspace Online Championships is going down on Sunday on UltimateBet. The guaranteed prize pool starts at $800 ($400 of it Free Added Money!), but if the past three PSOC events have shown anything it's that the prize pool will be well above the original guarantee and will probably exceed 50% more. Especially since the game in Event #4 is NL Hold'em 6-max, which happens to be my favorite kind of table and I'm sure it's others too.

Stay tuned to some new amazing promotions that are coming down the pipe! PSOC is still going strong with massive prize pools still up for grabs and some other specials the poker community is planning.

Pokerspace has updated their Free Poker Money deals by expanding the daily limits even more than previously thought. As of right now Pokerspace has upped their free bankrolls to UltimateBet and Absolute Poker to 50-daily and the Power Poker deal is now at 10 per day.

Free Poker Money Deals Bring Added Value

With over $300 worth of free poker money it's easy to see why these deals are so popular. The Power Poker deal is very exclusive and because of that there are only 10 daily spots open. For those who really want that free money to Power it is best to wait until just after 12:00am EST as that is when the daily limits start over again.

Colebex Plays Tough for Two Moster Wins

If the World Series of Poker is any indication of how tough it is to score back to back wins, Colebex's run this past weekend shows that he might earn himself Player of the Year awards. For the PSOC Event #1 (NL Holdem) Colebex won an amazing $584 against a player field of 54. The prize pool for that event balloned to $1,460 from an original guarantee of just $1K.

Free Poker Money and Zynga Poker Connection

The Zynga Poker craze has steadily taken over Facebook. The issue is that it is now taking over the real online poker industry. For online poker players it is very possible that you know at least a hand full of poker players that are obsessed with Zynga Facebook Poker. It's just insane.

Pokerspace Free Poker Money Deals

Pokerspace, in a recent article, argues that many Facebook poker players are wasting their time and effort in playing Zynga Poker because it offers no real value to players. The article pushes that a Pokerspace Free Poker Money deal is exactly the same as Zynga Poker except Pokerspace members can actually win something other than virtual chips that mean nothing.

Check out this article on the differences between Zynga Poker and Pokerspace deals to learn more about why Zynga Poker isn't true poker and how Pokerspace can be an excellent substitute for those looking for a similar experience.

This week is going to be a huge week for Pokerspace and live tournaments. As part of the amazing Pokerspace promotion the Crew Cup, those from the winning Crew won a trip to Las Vegas to take part in the OFC Invade Vegas series of tournaments that pit Pokerspace against the best the Online Forum Challenge has to offer. I think Pokerspace is going to dominate as play begins tonight with the Warm up Event. Pokerspace has some serious talent besides the winning crew members from the M&M crew. A full contingent of Pokerspace players have come to Vegas to show the Pokerspace is the best poker forum out there.

Pokerspace Pro Steve Black and his World Series of Poker Run

After busting on a terrible bad beat in the opening hours of WSOP Event # 45, Steve bounced back in Event #47 and is about to take on Day #2 in an excellent chip position to at least cash if not take it even further. After a long a difficult day Steve moved up to about 30K in chips and in 92nd position of the remaining 476 players.

The action in Vegas is going to top notch to say the least. Show what Pokerspace has to offer! Not only free poker money, sweet promotions, and a hot spot for poker knowledge, but the home of some of the best online poker players online today.

Free Poker Money Daily Limit Increased at Pokerspace

Pokerspace's free poker money deals have become a very popular mainstay over the past few months, and one great reason for this is that so many people can take advantage of them. When Pokerspace first started their free poker money deals in March UltimateBet and Absolute Poker have been limited to just 10 free bankrolls per day, but they have now been expanded to 20.

Power Poker Free Money Deal Helps

Pokerspace added an additional free poker money deal to Power Poker recently and to coincide with this the other deals have now risen to 20/day. The Titan Poker deal has always sat at 20, but the UB and AP deals were limited to 10/day as that was the deal originally. But as popularity grew for the UB and AP brands Pokerspace was only happy to broaden the number of free bankrolls given out.

Pokerspace now hands out 65 bankrolls per day worth a combined $1,600!No one can say Pokerspace doesn't want to get players started on their own poker journey for free.

Poker Advice on Playing Pot Limit Omaha

Playing Pot Limit Omaha (PLO) has become a very popular game over the past few years as the major online poker pros like Tom Dwan have started to play high stakes games almost exclusively on PLO tables. The major advantage of this is that the action is almost constant as there is a higher percentage of players actively playing nearly every hand. This is where good Omaha poker advice becomes very important. Pot Limit Omaha is a hard game to master.

Betting in Pot Limit Omaha

Pokerspace's SocialDave recently posted an interesting piece of poker advice on how to properly bet in PLO as it easy to see the betting stakes go up quickly given that each player is given 4 hole cards instead of the 2 players receive in Hold'em. It is important be patient and not play too many hands. Pre-Flop betting is by far the most important part of betting in Omaha because this is usually where many inexperienced players become pot committed without having a decent hand.

The betting come post-flop comes down to the number of outs available to the player. The article runs down some quick stats on the number of outs prospective hands will have and in Omaha the number of hand combinations does go up.

Be sure to check out SocialDave's article on how to properly bet in Pot Limit Omaha, and of course stay connected with all of Pokerspace's great poker advice in it's article sections.

How to Use Free Poker Money to Start a Large Bankroll

One question that comes up often is how to take a small amount of money and turn it into thousands? There is no easy answer to this question, but there is a plan and it certainly involves finding a free poker money deal and using it properly to build up a bankroll that will become the envy of your friends.

First: Get a Free Poker Money Deal From Pokerspace

The first step has to be to get the free poker money from Pokerspace. There are a number of great poker rooms to choose from like Absolute Poker, UltimateBet, and the new Power Poker. Each of these deals will give you a small influx of money to play with. The deals always require a certain amount of raked hands before you are allowed to withdraw the money, but this is a small price to pay for free money.

To get the number of raked hands in you should stick to some micro level ring games. In the process it is always hopeful that you will win some money, but if you break even in your quest that's always good too. Staying at micro levels will help keep the potential losses at a minimum in the process.

What to Play With Your Free Bankroll

A lot of pros obviously play cash ring games, but when you're starting out with a small bankroll it is better to stay away from cash games, the possibility of losing it all after going tilt is very easy. The start should be at the Sit'n'Go level. By playing SNGs you are opening yourself up to better odds of cashing than if you went to a cash game table or entered into a MTT. The time value of SNGs is the best way to keep your winning percentages up, and by playing more you are helping yourself keep up with the natural variances of poker. You're not going to win every time, but SNGs will help you win some of the time.

As far as what buy-in levels you are at this is directly contingent upon your bankroll level. You should try and never go above 5% of your bankroll per session. This means that if you have a $40 bankroll you should be playing in no higher than $2 SNGs. This will give you more chances to win. As you begin winning and moving your bankroll up be sure to move the stakes up very cautiously. You don't want to lose everything you've won just because you moved the stakes up too early and lost and few sessions in a row.

These are just some of the easiest ways to begin a successful online poker career with just a little bit of free poker money from Pokerspace.

Pokerspace and the Truth about No Deposit Bonus Codes

One of the biggest features of online poker rooms in comparison to brick and mortar casinos is that almost every single poker room offers some kind of bonus code to either give you added cash the second you deposit or an additional bonus money as you earn frequent player points. Neither way there are countless different types and Pokerspace has a lot too.

No Deposit Bonuses and Free Bankroll Comparisons

In the world of poker promotions there are differences in no deposit bonuses and free bankrolls. They are both filled with their pros and cons, but I find that it all depends on the poker room you want to play on and what you want to get out of your time playing online poker. For those out there who want to try out a new poker room or if you're very new to online poker you really can't do better than a free poker bankroll as Pokerspace members receive a free influx of cash deposited on a specific poker room to play around with.

I find that no deposit bonus codes that add money to your poker room account are great when there are no other deals present on Pokerspace, such as their PS Points deals, and I plan on depositing a decent amount of money. At the very least Pokerspace always has the best bonus codes for the best online poker rooms they don't already have private PS Point and rakeback deals.

How to Use Pokerspace's No Deposit Bonus Codes to Their Fullest

One thing to remember about any bonus code is that you will usually have to work a bit at releasing all that the deal has to offer. This means you will probably have to rake a bit on the room to release enough of that bonus to make a difference. If instant cash is what you are looking for in a bonus code then it is best to look at a smaller room or even Party Poker as they have a solid deposit bonus with Pokerspace.

Pokerspace, US Players, and the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act

Today is the day that U.S. poker players have been waiting for for over 4 years. Today is the day the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) goes into effect. This piece of legislation has created a lot of problems for many online poker players, poker rooms, legislators, and banking institutions. For months now the Pokerspace forum and blogs have been active with people wondering if they will turn on their computer and try to deposit money the full force of the U.S. government would all upon them, however, nothing of note has occurred. It's Y2K all over again. All hype and nothing to show for it.

Pokerspace: A Home for U.S. Poker Players

Pokerspace is perfectly able to deal with the problems the UIGEA creates for players. Pokerspace's virtual currency system (PS Points) allows U.S. players who have faced problems depositing on a poker room play for real value. PS Point tournaments dot the Pokerspace weekly tournament calendar as does member's only cash freerolls that require small PS Points buy-ins. This is a great way for U.S.-based players to get some cash onto a poker room without actually depositing the money themselves. Remember, it's not illegal to play online poker, it's illegal for a U.S. financial institution to knowingly deposit the money to a poker room.

If freerolls aren't what you want a free poker bankroll from Pokerspace is probably the best option for American players. At Pokerspace there are free bankrolls to UltimateBet, Absolute Poker, and Power Poker who are all willing to get more U.S. players. For one of these bankrolls just become a member and apply, it's as easy as that.

Good luck on the virtual felt and watch out for ole' Uncle Sam.

One of the defining features of Pokerspace is its poker forums. Since the beginning of the poker community the forums have been an active and informative part of the site. With topics from poker strategy to off poker topics like sports and poker legislation.

Value of Pokerspace Poker Forums

The Pokerspace forums are full of tips for new players and of course constant discussion about strategy, the best poker room, and of course debating the ins and outs of the online poker lifestyle. Members come together to support one another and trade everyday poker tips. Often members will add in a nice little poll to gauge people's reactions.

What many people to is they write a blog post on their profile perhaps detailing a horrible bad beat they just went through and they'll post a little forum thread about what others in the community would have done. On the lead up to the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) there has been a lot of discussion about what will happen come June 1st. For the most part people think that nothing will happen, but there's always more discussion going on.

Be sure to check out one of the best online poker forums out there and add your two cents.

Best Online Poker Freerolls

One of the main feature of Pokerspace's weekly tournament schedule is the number of great poker freerolls the site offers for members. Traditionally freerolls on poker rooms bring out hundreds if not thousands of players even if the the prize pool is as little as $100. With Pokerspace members-only freerolls players get smaller player fields with over $1K in freerolls to choose from every week.

Where to Find Pokerspace Freerolls

Pokerspace hosts a number of freerolls every week with varying prize pools from $100 all the way up to $500. There are even DeepStacks University scholarship freerolls every week with a cash value of nearly $100. Each Pokerspace tournament has its own special password to keep out non-Pokerspace members, but sometimes the passwords get leaked. You have to be a Pokerspace member to enter the majority of the freerolls are there are small PS Point buy-ins required to keep out password thieves.

As of right now Pokerspace has freerolls to Oddsmaker (an up and coming Merge room with good traffic), Power Poker (Strong Cake Network room), Doyles Room (Doyle Brunson's personal room), Walker Poker, and PokerStars. Excluding the PokerStars one the majority of Pokerspace's freerolls have less than a hundred people which equals great odds for anyone wanting to cash. Poker freerolls are great, and Pokerspace freerolls are even better.

If freerolls are quite your thing, but your looking to either establish a bankrolls on a new room or you're new to online poker Pokerspace also has a variety of free bankrolls too.

UltimateBet and Absolute Poker Plug All Their Security Holes

Over the past two weeks the CEREUS Poker Network has been faced with a series of challenging security problems that came to light after the website PokerTableRatings set up a test account on UltimateBet and began trying to hack it. In no time at all, and with no special equipment, the hackers were able to get into the test account in order to reveal the player's hole cards. On Sunday, however, CEREUS announced that it had solved all the security problems and that a team of hackers and third party auditors approved that the network was indeed secure.

What the Security Problems Meant For Players

It seems like there was no issue with potential hackers clawing their way into the players account information such as banking info or personal details, just players hole cards. While this is a glaring lapse in security the network found the problem and with a team of hackers and software engineers solved the problem with a secure OpenSSL encryption that is at industry standard.

Once the story broke there was an immediate dip in player traffic that was felt this past weekend during their weekly $200,000 GTD game where only 903 players showed up, equaling a $20,000 shortfall for UltimateBet. UB and AP players and prospective players should rest easy this coming week with all of the new security measures and with the player migration back to the CEREUS Network.

I know I feel confident in the CEREUS Network. The thing to remember about this latest lapse in online poker security is that it could have been worse and completely avoided if every player takes proper precautions like set up your own secure internet connection. With security issues at UltimateBet and Absolute Poker now finalized and resolved new players should feel confident in playing there and especially if you take advantage of a Pokerspace free bankroll to one of them.

Free Poker School From Pokerspace

Finding online poker schools is easy, but finding poker schools that are free is a different story. Luckily, Pokerspace has players covered with a multi-level poker school that will test even the most seasoned poker shark to sharpen their skills.

Poker Lessons from Pokerspace's Online Poker School

Pokerspace has a poker school that is complete with a series of in depth strategy lessons and tests as well. While it's easy to find random strategy articles all over the web, these lessons are grouped by skill level and category such as Bankroll Management, Calculating Pot Odds, and even Bluffing Strategy. And all of it is free. Yeah, free.

These lessons go from Basic poker knowledge all the way to Expert level. The lessons become more in detailed and useful as you pass from level to level. The calculating pot odds tutorials were very helpful in my own play as pot odds is very important to becoming a strong, well rounded player. Any player of any level will find value in these lessons.

Poker Quizzes and Tests From Pokerspace

Probably the best part about the Pokerspace poker school is the fact that you actually get to take tests to see how you have done and whether you are retaining the information. If you pass all of the quizzes and tests you will even gain a Pokerspace accolade that will go on your Pokerspace profile, setting you apart from others in the community. While the poker tests might seem easy the first couple of skill levels, trust me they get harder. No matter how broad you might think your poker knowledge is there is always something new to learn and the Pokerspace poker school tests will prove that.

Taking the Next Step in Your Poker Education

The only downside to the Pokerspace poker school is that it ends. It goes over the basics and to the advanced levels, but eventually you will get to that last test and want to learn more. Pokerspace also has a solution to that: DeepStacks University (DSU). DSU is the most innovative online poker school in the world with interactive video lessons that is based on the same technology that the U.S. military uses to train its troops. The best part is Pokerspace has partnered with DSU and that means Pokerspace members get a solid discount that can't be found anywhere else.

To put it simply, if you want a poker education Pokerspace should be the first place you go to. There's just so much to learn about poker, why not do it for free?
