The beauty of the online game is that there are no commitments whatsoever when you sign up at a poker room. You can sign up and do not even have to give any payment details. You are entitled to sign up and simply look around the room. In fact you never have to deposit any money if you don’t want to. There are practice tables on most poker rooms (certainly the ones that you will find on Online-Poker-Codes.com) where you can sit down and play for play money without ever having to wager a single penny of your own money.

You should take things in your stride and always play within your means. As a rule, don’t play with money you can’t afford as this will only get you into trouble. The fact that you have the opportunity to play for free really means you should get comfortable with your game of choice before committing to real money play. There is a common misconception amongst new players that by signing up at a poker room, they have to play with real money and are somehow obliged to stake their own money – this couldn't be further from the truth.

What’s more, the bonus that you were entitled to when you joined up will stay associated with your account, even if you decide not to make your first deposit for months after signing up.

Win money without depositing

I started playing poker a long time ago at a site called UKBetting. The site used to host a freeroll on Saturday for $300 and a freeroll for $600 on Sundays. At the time used to only play freerolls, mainly because i wasn’t very experienced – a sensible approach, I’m sure you’ll agree. Taking no risk whatsoever, i regularly won both events each week and supplemented my income and this really got me started all those years ago.

Every site has freerolls in which you can participate for free and earn free money without risking any of your own money. Some of our offers give entry to our new player tournaments so if you are looking to make some free cash, you have found your way to the right site. Check out our room reviews for promotional details.

Deposit Bonuses

Deposit bonuses are probably the most common of all bonuses offered online for the simple reason that the poker rooms make money taking their rake. These offers are win-win for the simple reason that if you play online, you will have to pay rake on any site (however miniscule the amount). The difference is simply that with a deposit bonus, you will earn some free cash as you play. The higher stakes and more raked hands you play, the more money and faster the process of you earning your free money. It really is as simple as that. Of course our bonuses are not targeted at high stakes players - even playing micro limits, you will clear most bonuses within the month (with regular play).
