Poker sites can also offer a set amount of free poker play in the form of tournament tickets or cash equivalent for real-money play. The 'free' poker games on any poker site are played with play money, meaning they have no actual exchangeable value (other than maybe cashing them in at the poker website's store for some branded merchandise). These sites offer both real money and play-money poker games but the 'freeroll' sits somewhere in between and serves as a great bridge for players looking to cross over from the free poker games to the real-money games.
