CD Poker revs up another WSOP freeroll

By Sarah Polson

On Wednesday, CD Poker will be dealing another World Series of Poker* Main Event Freeroll exclusively for PokerListings.com players.

The freeroll is open to players who signed up at CD Poker through PokerListings.com and then accumulated 200 player points during the qualification period.

The qualification period for Wednesday's WSOP freeroll ends today, but the poker site will have one more freeroll for PokerListings.com players in May.

The qualifying window for the May 14 freeroll begins today and ends on May 13.

Each freeroll will offer participants a shot at a $12,500 WSOP Main Event prize package. It includes the $10,000 buy-in to the 2008 Main Event plus money for travel and accommodation.

A free trip to play in the World Series is certainly nothing poker players are going to want to pass up. The WSOP Main Event has rocketed many players to millionaire status.

Jerry Yang picked up $8.25 million for his win last year, and Jamie Gold won a record-breaking $12 million in 2006.

Along with the cash has come quite a bit of fame for many of the Main Event winners. The CD Poker freeroll winners have the potential to join the ranks of Doyle Brunson, Phil Hellmuth, Johnny Chan, Greg Raymer and others who have attained world champion status.

CD Poker isn't letting the other players in the freeroll leave completely empty handed either. The poker site is putting up $2,500 to spread deep into the freeroll standings.
