Do You Want to Play in a $272,000 Freeroll at WPT Global? Here’s How

Freeroll tournaments are not new to the online poker world. Almost every online poker site runs free-to-play tournaments daily, but most have small prize pools of between $10 and $50. However, WPT Global is running a Lantern Festival PKO Bounty Freeroll on February 12 that has an almost unbelievable prize pool up for grabs, one worth an incredible $272,000!

The $272,000 Lantern Festival PKO Bounty Freerolls commences at 11:00 a.m. UTC on February 12, with registration opening two minutes before the first cards are dealt. A 20,000-player cap is in place, which seems plenty, but you should still act quickly to avoid disappointment.

Although the freeroll has no buy-in – otherwise, it wouldn’t be a freeroll – entry is restricted to those with valid tickets. How do you get your hands on such a ticket?

The only way to secure a ticket for this $272,000 freeroll at WPT Global is to hit the jackpot, literally. Between 12:00 a.m. UTC on February 6 through to 11:59 p.m. UTC on February 10, WPT Global invites you to play at its No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha (four card) cash game tables. Anyone who triggers the High Hand Jackpot not only wins their share of the level’s jackpot amount but also receives a ticket to the $272,000 freeroll on February 12.

Whenever you enter a pot, keep your fingers crossed that your winning hand is a monster. You must use both hole cards to make the winning hand for it to trigger the jackpot.

Four-of-a-kind wins you 2% of the High Hand Jackpot plus a $272,000 freeroll ticket. Make a straight flush to bank 10% of the jackpot plus a ticket to this huge freeroll, or a royal flush to see your bankroll swell by 20% of the current jackpot plus, of course, a ticket to one of the largest freerolls PokerNews has ever seen!

You’ll need Lady Luck to shine down on you to win a ticket, but that also means that the freeroll’s field will be limited, meaning your chances of capturing a substantial prize are greater should you win a ticket.
