PokerStars has resurrected its depositor freerolls, and it will give away $500,000 to depositing players from 28 November to 13 December.

Whether you are a new PokerStars player or an existing one, you can enter into this promotion and join in the freerolls fun. Simply make a deposit from now until December 12, using the promotional code ‘500K’ if you are already a PokerStars player or using ‘FIRST500K’ if you are a new member. Once this is done, you receive a ticket giving you entry into all remaining depositor freerolls in this period. If you want to enter them all, then be sure to make a deposit before 28 November.

The initial qualifying freerolls will be held eight times each day from 28 November to 13 December at 05:00 ET, 08:00 ET, 11:00 ET, 13:00 ET, 15:00 ET, 17:00 ET, 20:00 ET, and 23:00 ET. Each qualifier freeroll has a prize pool of $2,500, paid down to 500th place with a $200 first place prize. Players who make the cash in any of the qualifier freerolls will receive an entry into one of the finals on 13 December, where they can play for a share of $25,000.

Freeroll finals will be held at the same times of day as the qualifiers, and each will have a $25,000 prize pool with a $2,500 first place prize. The finals will pay down to 500th place, the lowest prize tier paying $10. Considering you pay nothing on top of your deposit in order to enter into the qualifiers, this entire promotion is great value.

If you are a new player at PokerStars, you can take advantage of the 100% bonus on first deposits of up to $600, as well as playing in the depositor freerolls. Just download the PokerStars software, sign up, make a deposit, and start playing!
