Gaining access to this value-added freeroll is a simple task; all you need to do is create a real-money account at Winamax. Creating a Winamax account is easy, but a few extra steps are required because of the French gaming laws.

To take part in our freeroll, you must create a Winamax account, enter your date of birth, provide bank account details (IBAN and BIC/Swift numbers), and define certain spending and playing limits. Once this is completed, you should be able to register for the PokerNews Winamax Freeroll

If you win a Winamax Series VI ticket and then go on to cash in whichever event you choose to use it in, you will need to fully finalize your Winamax account to withdraw funds. Finalizing your account is done by providing Winamax with a copy of an ID document (such as a passport or driver's license) and a copy of your bank statement. Once Winamax has verified these documents, you will receive a personal verification code sent to your postal address. Then you must enter the code into the Winamax software to complete the sign-up process.
