The qualification period for the PokerNews $20,000 Freeroll on PokerStars may have been extended until July 31, but that date is less than a week away! Do not miss out on this massive freeroll, earn your seat today!
The PokerNews $20,000 Freeroll takes place on PokerStars on Aug. 7 at 14:00 EDT and is only open to our valued PokerNews customers who have signed up for a PokerStars account using our links and marketing codes. Due to the fact this is not an open event, the field size should be much smaller than in a typical freeroll, which in turn means your chances of winning some free cash are increased.

It is even easier for new players to play in the $20,000 freeroll. All you need to do if you do not have a PokerStars account is to download PokerStars through PokerNews, enter the marketing code “POKERNEWS.COM” and make a deposit using the bonus code “STARS600.” Do this and not only will you be eligible for a 100% match up to $600 first-deposit bonus, but you will also be given a free ticket to the PokerNews $20,000 Freeroll.
