It's finally time to announce all the details of the very first FreeOnes Poker Tournament for MyFreeOnes users! The tournament will be held on Saturday, February 7th at 9pm GMT (4pm EST) over at PKR! There will be a $250 freeroll AND there's a special event within the tournament itself! A bounty on our very own self proclaimed poker guru, FreeOnes Team Member Rory!

​

• The cost of a seat in the tournament is 200 MyFreeOnes points. In order to purchase your seat, login to your MyFreeOnes account and visit the MyFreeOnes Store. The buy-in is located in the Miscellaneous category! Please make sure you have a working email address so tournament password can be emailed to you! --> Click here if you're logged into MyFreeOnes for a direct link to the tournament buy-in!
  
  
• Once your seat has been purchased from the store, head on over to PKR by following THIS LINK to download the PKR software and set up your free account. Note: You must download the software and set up an account with PKR to play in the tournament. This download is safe according to McAfee SiteAdvisor.
  
  
• The tournament will show up in the PKR lobby (you must have the software runnning to see this) 48 hours before the start time and will be listed as Freeroll#FreeO.

And as stated before, FreeOnes Team Member Rory will be playing in this tournament! Rory claims that he is the guru of poker so it is YOUR responsibility to knock him down a few pegs and out of the tournament! The MyFreeOnes member who is able to knock Rory out of the tournament will recieve a special FreeOnes goodie bag!​

So, time is running out! There's only 2 weeks left until the tournament so hurry up and go buy your seat so you don't miss out! If you don't have a MyFreeOnes account yet, read THIS THREAD to find out more about getting signed up and getting your points!

Naw...I fixed it. Word to the wise: This poker site has a glitch during sign-up. You may not be able to log in with your newly-set information--i.e. username/password. I had to go back and change my password to a temporary one, then go back in and change it back to the original one again to finally be able to log on.

Ok, I thought that was just me forgetting to capatilize one of the letters in my password yesterday. I'll let them know.

Software won't work with Macs or my old Windows machine. So I won't be there.

as a somewhat veteran member, I am ashamed to ask, but how do I get into my MyFreeones account. I signed up a LOOONG time ago and have NO idea what my login info and password may be!

On a side note PKR doesn't allow US players.

US players can play with play money, but they can't play for real money if they should decide to do so. And by that I mean, they can't deposit real money into their account but that's a moot point for the tournament.

I'll take a look at it on Monday. If you remember the email you used to register your MyFreeOnes account can you PM it to me? That will make finding it much easier.

Well if I US player decided to play the freeroll and happen to win they wouldn't be able to do anything with the money. That's just my point. Anyway GL to everyone in the tourney.
