Victor
Chandler Poker is a site that might be new to you, but it's
gaining a lot of popularity and is a well trafficked site.
There's good news and there's bad news
about Victor Chandler Poker. The bad news is that the freerolls aren't
entirely free in the pure sense of the word, you need some player points
(called Action Points) to enter them.
The good news however is that if you
are a real money player at Victor Chandler Poker you will gain these
Action Points very easily. Here's what VC says about how to get your
Action Points:
"For every $1 you spend in
tournament fees, you will immediately receive 100 Action Points (not
including re-buy fees)."
The $100 speed freerolls are fast and
furious and only cost 400 Action Points to enter, so just by entering
tournaments to the value of $4 you will be able to get in to the
freeroll. There are loads of daily freerolls available (more good
news) and they seem to only be about half full (even MORE good news!).
There's also a 25% bonus on offer on
your first real money deposit.

PokerChamps
has decided to close it's doors to players from USA. The site, which Gus
Hansen is a leading light in, is based in Europe and because of
legislation issues it has decided to exclude US residents. Here's what
they say:-
"As part of the recent upgrade, PokerChamps has performed a
system change that begins the process of moving to a new platform. We
have also
incorporated geo-location software which enables us to implement a long
standing and consistent Group Company policy of not permitting access to
individuals in the United States. Affected individuals have until
tomorrow
21st July 2006 at 12pm EST/5pm BST to withdraw funds after which time
accounts will be locked and funds returned by arrangement with our
customer service team."
The good news for non-US players is
that PokerChamps might give you a better chance of winning. There are
concerns about legislation affecting the whole poker industry in
America, but I believe it's too much of a juggernaut to control. Most of
the big poker rooms are based offshore and don't fall under US law. I
think the biggest gripe USA has is in that it's not colecting taxes from
the poker operations.
