Time Is Running Out To Qualify For $20,000 Worth Of WCOOP Freerolls
The 2012 PokerStars World Championship Of Online Poker (WCOOP), kicks off on Sept. 2 with the first of 62 high-stakes poker tournaments over 22 days. Winning a WCOOP event is a fantastic experience, but words are not enough to express what it must feel like to win the $5,200 No-Limit Hold'em Main Event that guarantees at least $1,000,000 to the eventual winner.
You could be in with a chance of playing in the 2012 WCOOP Main Event for free thanks to our $20,000 WCOOP Freerolls. We have three PokerNews-exclusive freerolls that all take place on Sept. 7 at 14:00 ET (19:00 BST) and you could be playing in them for free.
The first of the three freerolls is open to new PokerNews registered players who make a deposit from Aug. 1 through 31 and existing PokerNews customers who have generated at least 35 VPPs from Aug. 1 through 31.
The second freeroll is open to existing PokerNews players who have accumulated at least 100 VPPs from Aug. 1 through 31, and the third and final freeroll is available to existing PokerNews players who have earned at least 200 VPPs from Aug. 1 through 31. You can play in all three freerolls if you meet the qualifying criteria, earn just 200 VPPs from Aug. 1 through 31 and entry to each of the three freerolls will be yours. As you can see it is possible to play in all three freerolls, — a $20,000 value — for earning just 200 VPPs.

- Freeroll #1: $5,200 WCOOP Main Event Ticket to the winner plus $1,000 shared between places second through ninth as per PokerStars' regular payout structure
