So, do they host a tournament, and then send a check to the winners? or what?
Anyway im new here so I dont even think i'd even be eligible, but Id like to know.
A link to a forum that answers this or a answer would be greatly appreciated,
thanks in advance

hi and welcome to the forum
you mean CC freerolls?
they give money to whatever site is hosting them,
then if you win its added to your site balance,
many ways to withdraw including by check

What he said.
That answer also applies to a freeroll at any site.
Once a prize is won it will be posted to your cashier.
Some sites however have a playthrough requirement on freeroll winnings before you are able to cash them out.
IE you have to gamble that value a number of iterations or to pay a certain amount of rake on that money.

Freerolls are just free tournaments usually hosted for promotional reasons. Different sites have different freerolls and may require different things to be eligible. The freeroll sites just pay out poker cash on whichever site is hosting the freeroll. Great for learning poker, passing time, or even trying to build a bankroll from nothing.

Normally a site will require you to deposit money before you can make withdrawals, sometimes with a play through requirement (= you need to use the money to play a certain amount of hands/tournaments).

Freerolls and how they work

You register if you happen to cash the money is put in your account to play with most of the time though in order to make a cashout you have to deposit at least once. this is to verify who you are and where your from. Not to mention winning a freeroll wont get you enough to make a cashout.
