PokerSourceOnline now called PokerSource.com
October 14, 2008
It’s hardly a big news story, but PokerSourceOnline.com has changed its name, and its web address, to PokerSource.com. Nothing else seems to have changed. They still offer the most free poker bankroll offers, and the most free poker gifts.
Currently, they have free bankroll offers at eight online poker rooms. Not all offers are available to all countries, but most countries seem to have at least two or three bankrolls available to them.
It might be worth your while to check them out and see what else is available for free to players in your country.
No Deposit Bonus guide
October 12, 2008
This is our guide to getting the best use out of the various No Deposit Poker Bonus offers that are currently available. It is only intended as a general suggestion, and cannot take into account that some offers may not be available to the player.
Many free poker bankroll offers are available at the same poker room but are offered by different bankroll providers. For example, Titan Poker is the most popular of the ‘no deposit poker rooms’. There are currently 5 different providers that offer free poker money at Titan Poker. But you can only have one poker account at Titan poker, so it is obvious that you can only claim one of these free bonuses.
Ok, that is fair enough. But it gets more complicated than that. Some of these bankroll providers have other offers available at other online poker rooms, and some have only one offer available (the Titan one).
To make things worse, some of these bankroll providers that have multiple free poker money promotions available restrict how many of them you can claim. So taking the Titan Poker offer from a bankroll provider that has other offers might mean that you can’t claim the other offers.
So now you can see that it makes sense (and it pays!) to take your time and see all the offers that are available first before deciding which one to take. We have here our idea of the best way to approach the various no deposit poker bonuses.
Four Simple Steps to $523 in No Deposit Poker Bonuses
We are going to start with the poker rooms that offer a no deposit sign up bonus. Currently there are three of these poker room bonuses available – Poker770, VCPoker and Pitbull Poker.
None of these no deposit bonuses is available anywhere other than from the poker room directly so we can claim these without worrying that it will affect us later on.
Next we take the poker bankroll providers that have only one offer available.
Starting with PokerRoomSchool we see that they have a free poker bonus available at CDPoker. The only other site with an offer at CDPoker is PokerSource. As PokerSource is the biggest poker bankroll provider with a number of unique offers we can safely take the PokerRoomSchool offer.
Next in the list of poker bankroll providers with only one offer is PokerNetOnline. Their free bankroll is at Titan Poker. As we know, there are 5 Titan Poker bankrolls available. We can pass this offer on the sites with multiple bankrolls available, but unfortunately this leaves PokerProfessor, which is also a single bankroll provider and also offering Titan Poker as its sole choice. So we must choose between PokerNetONline and PokerProfessor.
As PokerProfessor is a ‘poker school’ type of site, we will probably choose the PokerNetONline offer for the Titan Poker Bankroll. We will have to pass on PokerProfessor for now, and hope that they bring out another free bankroll offer at a different poker site.
Now we get to the bankroll providers that have multiple offers available. So let’s find the unique offers amongst them. Starting with PokerSource, they have a bankroll available at Poker Stars, which no other provider has, so we should probably go for that.
The unfortunate thing about PokerStrategy is that they offer only one bankroll to their members but they give you the choice of four different poker rooms to claim it at. When we claim the Poker Stars bankroll we cannot claim any more bankrolls from PokerStrategy.
The next multiple bankroll provider that has unique poker rooms available is PokerSource. As the largest provider of free online poker bankrolls it stands to reason that they would have the most unique offers too. And they do; three in fact, at Redkings, Doyles Room and Action Poker. You can only claim one of these free bonuses from PokerSource every six months, so we must choose one here. Most players will be restricted by their country of origin to only being able to claim at most two of the available offers here, except for Canadian Players, who can claim all three.
Players that can only claim one of these will obviously claim that one; players that can claim two should claim whichever one they like now, and the other in six months time.
Canadian players will have to decide which one they prefer and go for it, then claim a second one in six months time and fore go the third one. At a guess it would seem that the Redkings offer is the most attractive at an initial $50 plus a pending bonus of another $50. It seems to be a toss up between the Action Poker bonus of an initial $40 with a $35 pending bonus or the Doyles Room bonus of an initial $50 with no extra bonus.
The last unique free poker bankroll offer is at Cake Poker. This is from YourPokerCash. Things get a bit better now, because YourPokerCash will let you claim as many of their bankroll bonuses as you can, provided that you make a ‘minimum play requirement’. We won’t go into that here – check the YourPokerCash review for more details. We will assume that you will be able to make the minimum play amount required, and so you can claim as many of the bankrolls here as you are eligible for.
Starting with the Cake Poker offer, as it is unique to this provider, that leaves us with most of the other free bankrolls at YourPokerCash available to us. We have already claimed a bankroll at Titan Poker, so we can have the Party Poker, Absolute Poker, UltimateBet Poker and FullTilt Poker free bankroll offers from YourPokerCash too.
And there you have it. Six months later you have thirteen online poker accounts and you have scored $523 in free poker money with absolutely no deposit required, and you will have got some or even all of an extra $522 in free poker bonus money!
