Do you want to play in it? Of course you do! Keep reading to find out how you can get involved in the $4,000 PokerNews Rising Star Freeroll.

The $4,000 PokerNews Rising Star Freeroll is to take place at 19:00 GMT on June 2. All players will start with a generous stack of 3,000 tournament chips and will play to a tried and tested blind structure that increases every 15 minutes. As the name of the freeroll suggests, the guaranteed prize pool for this tournament is a whopping $4,000!

Qualifying for the $4,000 PokerNews Rising Star Freeroll is a simple task. All you need to do is make your first deposit at Poker770 and then earn just 150 Points770 and a seat in the freeroll is all yours. Although 150 Points770 may sound like a large amount, in reality it is not because you earn 20 Points770 per $1 paid in cash game rake and 22 points770 per $1 paid in tournament fees. This means you could be playing in a $4,000 freeroll for less than $7 in rake!

Your first deposit must be made and your 150 Points770 generated between 00:01 GMT on April 29 and 23:59 GMT on May 31, otherwise you will miss out on this value-packed tournament.

Please note: This promotion is only open to customers who are making their first deposit at Poker770. If you have already made a deposit at Poker770 you will not be eligible for this particular promotion.

Summary

Poker770 is part of the iPoker network, which features many great sites. Poker 770 is primarily a French site, but can be used in most languages. Poker770 offers a large selection of Freerolls, promotions, bonuses and special satellite programs to make it to the EPT, WPT and WSOP. Poker 770 has an extensive section that covers "Team 770." This is the team of sponsored players on the site, and includes Fabien Barthez as a spokesperson. Guess what? You too can actually become a member of the Team by using Poker770, and get to travel and play with the pros!

Poker 770 is in on a big network so it has solid traffic overall, especially in peak hours. The graphics are not the best, and the lobby is old-fashioned, but the games are good. The bonuses and promotions are good, so it is worth a download, especially for players in France and other French speaking countries. There is also a casino attached to the site, so if poker isn't enough to satisfy, there are always the casino games.

Cash Games

Poker 770 has good action at all times in its cash games. They provide the usual games: Holdem, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, 7 Card Stud, and 5 Card Stud. These are available in No Limit, Limit and Pot Limit structures. They have full ring games in addition to 6 handed or heads-up tables. Poker770 also has 'turbo' cash tables enabling many hands per hour. The limits range from $0.02c-$0.04c to $300-$600, so there is something for everyone. Most of the traffic is concentrated in the middle to lower spectrum; however there are bigger games readily available.

Sit and Gos

The SnGs are unique on Poker770, and this is due to the enormous amount of satellite and promotional tournaments available. There are of course normal tournaments that range in the amounts from $0.12 to $1050, and come in all the games the room offers. The regular one table SnGs are 10 or 6 handed. There is also 20 and 30 person SnGs. The satellite SnGs vary in size and structure more, depending on the event it's targeting. There are enough satellites of different kinds to provide options for qualification, which is always a bonus.

MTTs

The crux of the Multi Table Tournaments on Poker770 revolves around Satellite entries to the WSOP, tournaments around Europe and of course the ECOOP. The tournaments here start as high a $1060, and go all the way down to the micro limits. They showcase rebuy and regular tournaments and hold Freerolls for the new and recreational players. The tournaments are easy to find in the lobby, and start often. Generally the players are not very solid, so winning a MTT isn't as difficult as some of the other big sites on the market.

Freerolls

Joining Poker770 through PokerNews right now is one of the best times to do so.

You could take part in several Freerolls, including - Monthly $2,770 Cash Freerolls

Interface User/Friendliness

As mentioned before, the graphics leave something to be desired. They are not bad or anything, they are just not very good or modern. The avatars at the table are good 3D graphics, and the animations are pretty basic. Navigation is simple, and nothing is hard to find. The speed of the actual games is good, and the hand history feature is nice. They have note taking and friend finding features too which are useful. Overall the interface and playability is modest and efficient.

Support Cashier

Poker770 support consists of phone, email and live chat support. The support is quite fast, efficient and friendly.

The cashier is easy to navigate and processes quickly. This site believes in security first, so don't be surprised if they request ID checks.

Conclusion

Poker770 is especially recommended to people in France, as it is aimed at them primarily. Poker 770 does have something for everybody, and hopefully will expand even more into other areas. The traffic is good, and the game play is smooth and comfortable. The graphics are basic, but are not a negative so it not a big deal. If you are a player who wants to try and parlay some satellites into the biggest tournament entries, this is most definitely a site you want to take a crack at.
