If you cant afford to deposit a small amount like $50-100, then the best option is to solve whatever situation, that is causing that, before spending time playing poker. Poker is not a solution to being broke, and spending time and energy on it might keep you stuck in that situation for longer than needed. Best of luck.

In some spots in South & Central America, it can be EXTREMELY difficult for people to come up with 'small' amount like $50-$100 ($50 for many CC members can go a long way). Many have no option but to try to grind it up from freerolls.

All of them. Get experience wherever you can!


this ^

And if you can, try to make at least the min. deposit on any site you find yourself playing on most often... because you'll need to do this if you're hoping to make the process of Withdrawals easier.

i’m starting on poker now and idont have any big money to deposit, where is the best to play free rolls and gain slowly?
I would recommend you Coin Poker. There's a lot of satellites from 0.1,0.2,0.5 cents to 1,2,5,10 $ mtts. Field is very soft, and you can build bankroll very easily. Freerolls runs every half an hour but its a grind. I manage to build classy bankroll there (around 3k) without deposit, starting with freerolls.

You could play the freerolls and daily bonuses at GG poker and build up a bankroll without investing much own Money

I suggest you:
ACR BCP etc. there are $50.00 freerolls every 3 hours every day. You can play them and build a small bankroll to try playing micro limits.

Coin Poker is also great, they offer freerolls every 30 minutes.

and GG poker as well

In my opinion, the best poker room right now is 888poker.
I don’t know any other site that offers so many freerolls where you can improve your skills and build a bankroll.
It’s a great way to start and later move on to $5–$10 tournaments without risking your own money.

If you do not plan to spend your own money on the game, then you should definitely pay attention to 888. You don't actually need money there. The freerolls that will be available to you after your first deposit will allow you to build up your bankroll from scratch quite quickly.

For me, GGPoker and 888poker have been the best platforms — especially as a beginner and low-stakes player. They both offer free play options and regular freerolls that help you build experience (and maybe even a bankroll) without needing a deposit right away.

And of course, I can’t forget the CardsChat freerolls — they’ve been a huge part of my early poker journey. Great community, solid structure, and a good place to learn while playing for real prizes.
