Mermaid Poker is a site from poker star Gus Hansen's homeland of Denmark. All of the Scandinavian countries have a strong interest in poker and you can expect to see more sites like this emerging in the future. The site is a kind of co-operative venture, being owned by 262 Danish poker players, all of whom have a common goal of "creating a great poker site by players for players"

They have some great freerolls going with a stated prize pool of $2900 per week, although $1000 of this is taken up by a freeroll that you need to have 25 raked hands to enter. The 25 raked hand minimum is very easy to achieve however - especially considering Mermaid are offering $100 bonus on deposits. There's also a daily $200 freeroll and a weekly $500 game.

"I came 12th in Canbets' $10,000 guaranteed! I rebought and added on once only, and although I thoroughly enjoyed myself, when we got to the last 2 tables the blinds were so high it became a bit of an all-in fest. I was chip leader in the later stages many times, but the all in aspect made it difficult to play 'tight'. Thanks Ian, and KUTGW!"
