What are Freerolls and Tournaments?
Freeroll: A Freeroll is a Tournament with no buy-in or entry fee. Also it does not allow for any re-buys. Freezeout Tournament: A freezeout Tournament is a Tournament where you cannot re-buy.

What are the different kinds of Tournaments?
Scheduled - Tournaments scheduled by PokerNordica to start at a specific time. PokerNordica Freerolls can be found under the scheduled tab.
Sit & Go - Tournaments that will only start once the required number of players has been reached. Registered Sit & Go tournaments are usually single table tournaments.
Satellites - Tournaments that 'feed' winners into bigger tournaments. Satellites are held in various stages leading up to a large tournament such as a WPT, WSOP or PokerNordica special event.
Special - These are tournaments arranged by third parties and hosted by PokerNordica. For example if you have a local Poker club, you may like to hold an online tournament at PokerNordica. For more information, please contact marketing@partnernordica.com.

What are Raked Hands?
Raked hands are when a small amount is removed from the pot of real money ring games as a fee to use the poker server. Our rake chart shows how we rake our games. When playing, if a small amount of the pot is moved to the left of the board cards then a rake has been taken. You will only be counted in a raked hand if you have contributed to the pot (bet or posted a blind). We also have a "No flop, No drop" policy, whereby we take no rake if the hand ends before the flop.

How do I withdraw Freeroll winnings?
If you wish to make a withdrawal of Freeroll winnings you simply need to fulfill the following criteria.

• Any Freeroll winnings can be withdrawn after seven days. However, during this seven day period your winnings will be placed into your PokerNordica player wallet and can be accessed for immediate play.

How do I register and de-register for Freerolls and Tournaments?
To register, simply double click on the Freeroll or the Tournament you wish to enter and click on the 'Register' button in the bottom right hand side of your screen.
You must be registered before the start time. For Freerolls and scheduled tournaments, registration usually begins two hours before and will finish one minute prior to commencement.
Sit N Go Tournaments also require registration; however, there are no time limits. Registration begins when a table is available and will finish when the required player total is reached.
To de-register from any tournament, click the 'De-Register' button in the tournament details. Any buy-in cost will be refunded if you de-register prior to commencement.

What happens if I am disconnected during a Freeroll or a Tournament
If you are disconnected during a Freeroll or Tournament you can log in again and still have your seat. Keep in mind, you will continue to post blinds during the time you are disconnected.

Can I watch Tournament tables?
In the tournament details (choose the tournament and click "details") all of the tables being played at are listed in the "Tables" chart in the bottom left hand corner. To open a table, you simply double click on that particular table. If you want to find a certain player at a certain table, double click on the players name in the "Players and Results" table.

What happens if a Freeroll or Tournament is Shutdown or Cancelled?
From time to time Freerolls and Sit N Go Tournaments may need to be shut down or cancelled. If a tournament is shutdown it will be rescheduled, or bonus freerolls will be offered.

What is Hand For Hand Mode and when does it happen?
‘Hand For Hand Mode’ is used in all Multi-Table Tournaments and allows all tables to play the same exact number of hands at critical times. The following chart is used to determine when ‘Hand For Hand Mode’ will start and stop. See PokerNordica's Hand For Hand Mode chart.

I am unable to register for a Tournament and am told that somebody already has with the same IP address The way home networks are configured, players are not able to enter Tournaments at the same time as other players on the same network. However, it is possible with Private Tournaments and Sit n Go Tournaments.
