It’s not every day that an online poker site offers a completely free tournament with no deposit required, but this weekend we have one for you on Fleet Street Games. It’s a brand new subscription-based site that makes its home in the United States. It’s open to customers from around the U.S. and around the world and will be going live in September. Currently in beta-testing mode, Fleet Street Games is hosting an exclusive freeroll for PocketFivers this Saturday, August 30th. The top 20 finishers will win entry into Fleet Street Games’ $50,000 freeroll on Sunday, August 31st.

The freeroll for PocketFivers takes place on Saturday at 6:00pm ET (18:00 ET). Here’s a list of prizes up for grabs in the freeroll:

1st Place - One year paid membership to Fleet Street Games plus a $50K Freeroll entry

2nd Place - Three months paid membership to Fleet Street Games plus a $50K Freeroll entry

3rd-10th - One month paid membership to Fleet Street Games plus a $50K Freeroll entry

11th-20th – Entry into the $50k Freeroll

In order to be eligible to play in the exclusive PocketFives.com freeroll, you must download Fleet Street Games through the links on PocketFives or by clicking here. No deposit is required and the site is not yet subscription-based. Fleet Street Games is using this freeroll as a test to see if what kind of response PocketFives.com members can give. Registration for the PocketFives freeroll on Fleet Street Games closes at 4:00pm ET on Saturday, so sign up today.

You will be automatically registered into the PocketFives Freeroll if you sign up through our links and create an account. If you aren't registered, e-mail us and we'll help you out. All of the details are available in this thread in Poker Discussion.

The $50,000 freeroll takes place on Sunday, August 31st. It’s one of the largest freerolls offered online that I can recall and will usher in the launch of the site live in September. Fleet Street Games is run by Dan Goldman, the former Vice President of Marketing for PokerStars.

If you decide to become a member of Fleet Street Games after the freeroll, you have four different subscription options to choose from:
Weekly: $9.99
Monthly: $19.99
Quarterly: $49.99 ($16.66 per month)

Over $200,000 in monthly prizes will be given away on the site, whose members will also have unbridled access to PokerSchoolOnline, which features a bevy of educational poker materials. When you sign up for an account on Fleet Street Games, you’ll receive $1,000 in Play Money Chips and $1,000 in Tournament Dollars (or T$). Prize pools will range from $10 to $100,000 once the site gets up and running. Tournament buy-ins will range from T$1 to T$5,000 and each member can top up to T$1,000 once every 24 hours.
