What is a Freeroll in Poker?

Freeroll

A Freeroll is a poker tournament that has no required entry fee or buy-in, while also still offering a prize pool that can be real money, tournament tickets, tournament seats, or other prizes.

Freeroll / Freerolling: alternatively, a freeroll, is a hand in which a player is guaranteed to at least split the pot with his/her opponent, with a chance to win the pot outright. For example, if you have Aâ™  A♣ and your opponent has A♥ A♦, and the board comes 8â™ 9â™ 2♦Qâ™ , you’re freerolling the ability to win the whole pot with a made flush if a spade hits on the river.
