The Bankroll Builder comprises exclusive entries into $100 freeroll qualifiers for 60 days after their first real money deposit. The top 50 places are paid out and also receive an entry into the weekly $2,500 freeroll every Saturday. Those who finish in the top 200 of the $2,500 freeroll are not only guaranteed to cash but also qualify for the monthly $10,000 freeroll, which takes place on the last Sunday of every month where 500 places are paid.<\/p>\n<p>As an added incentive, any new real money player can enter the weekly $2,500 tournament directly without going through the $100 freerolls during the first seven days after they have made their first deposit.
