I used to be a regular cash player before the laws changed and I started playing more live games. I still play freerolls just to mess around, but it seems on UB every 4-6 months I'll have $10 in my account. I've gone up and down with it and always have bonus $s to get but just wondered if anyone else has received the same or better?

Never got anything free at any site, except the original bonusses I got when I signed up. I'm assuming you lose the money and then it's back again after awhile?

I haven't lost, yet, on any of the sites. I guess that's why I haven't gotten any. Not that I'm complaining, I'd rather win than get free money.

Stars and Full Tilt have both sent me money before, FT is
usually because of technical problems and Stars cuz I won't
deposit there.

When I was making deposits regularly I was also making withdrawls regularly. This was when I could have it direct deposited to my bank account. Since then I've made two deposits and one check withdrawl.
The free $10 I've only ever worked up to about $40 and usually make the mistake of taking my whole bankroll to a NL table.

I have the same thing happen in my account on UB.Ten dollars every few months.You can get it wether you have money in your account or not.They always send an e-mail to let me know it is in there.I have noticed it usually comes when my time at the site has dropped quite a bit.Holdem

yep FullTilt will always give you at least $5.00 if you were playing while they had technical difficulties (even you were sitting on a last position during your freeroll you would get $5.00 if site goes down). If you were in the money game you'll get reimbursed your last hand + $5.00.

I have received $5 from PS, about a wek after I created an account. I did not deposit any money though, maybe that's why they sent me the free $5.
I have been playing on FT for a few years now, but I have never gotten straight up cash, just several bonus offers, where u have to earn so and so FT points to get the bonus...

:D This is my favorite when Sites randomly drop money into your accounts.
So far:
bodog: 2 times - $5 dollars each time
Poker stars: 2 times $5 dollars each
Full Tilt: Am not really sure because it was kind of a mess around account.

Wow.
UB has never given me anything!
Never deposited there either though.
PS have given and FT
A few other sites give depending on how I download the program software and what PROMO I use etc.

Good luck to you

Wow Free money I am jealous!

lets see, I have deposited and run thru including matching bonuses about 400$ in the last six months and I have never gotten ANY free$ from Poker Stars.

I won at least five $ in freerolls on FT, but no free money, I am down to nothing in FT...I play PS almost exclusively.

The only time I have ever received free money from a poker site is after I haven't played there for awhile. It's their we want your $ back tactic. The most I ever received was $20 from party poker when U.S. players were still allowed to play real money there. I'm pretty sure Ultimate Bet gave me about $10 not that long ago but, I never was able to find out why. I'm just guessing because i stopped playing there for several months. HO Ho HO All

Free money is awsome...
I have recieved from a few sites.
Take what you can get, because usually once you have a BR you will not receive it anymore.

PS

I have recieved $10 from pokerstars before thats about it and they give you a certain time limit to use it, it is pointless they can keep there money I am fulltilt all the way, I have tried all the other poker sites and they just do not float my boat like FT does.
