New daily freeroll at online poker room

The popular online poker room PokerStars is the world's largest online poker site and they keep on reinventing themselves with new promotions and tournaments. Their latest invention is a new daily freeroll for the British and Irish players, where the poker site will be adding £2000 to the prize pool each day.

The new tournament started on the 22nd of January and will run for six weeks. The daily freeroll will take place at 9.30PM GMT every evening and players will be able to re-buy for $50c. If you do not make it for the 9.30 tournament there is also a £250 tournament starting at 10.30pm.

PokerStars' Regional Marketing Director, Emma Crowe said: "The cold, dark nights of January and February are traditionally the most popular months of the year for online poker play. We feel that the new daily freeroll will appeal to a wide range of poker players. By adding £2,000 to the prize pool everyday for six weeks PokerStars are once again showing their commitment to rewarding players who use the world's largest poker site."

The announcement comes soon after PokerStars announced the launch of the new UK and Ireland Poker Tour which began in Galway in December 2009 and makes its way across the Irish Sea to Manchester on February 11th – 14th
