2010
In
December, PartyPoker
will unveil the Five Star Poker Challenge, offering
31 freerolls worth $5,000 each plus other high-stakes
cash prizes. PartyPoker
offers some of the industry’s most unique promotions
every month.
All
you have to do to take full advantage of the Five
Star Poker Challenge is rack up five Party Points
in a single day. That’s it; that’s really
all you have to do. When you amass five points, PartyPoker
will grant you entry into a $5,000 freeroll the next
day. There are 31 freerolls that will be held in total,
meaning that the site is putting up over $150,000
for this part of the Five Star Poker Challenge promotion.
Now,
if you qualify for five of the aforementioned $5,000
freerolls, you’ll score entry into a $50,000
freeroll that will be held on January 2nd. You’ll
be ringing in the new year in style as you vie for
a five-figure prize pool, all for playing on one of
the world’s largest online poker sites.
In
addition, repeat winners of the $5,000 freerolls will
be in for a special treat. Win two daily $5,000 freerolls
and you’ll take home a $5,000 cash prize. If
you manage to win three daily freerolls, then your
prize will be increased to $50,000. Finally, any PartyPoker
player who manages to take down five daily $5,000
freerolls will win a colossal $500,000 cash prize.
Your
$5,000 freeroll victories don’t have to be consecutive;
rather, they can happen on any days during the promotion.
Finally, PartyPoker
is offering up one $5,000, $50,000, and $500,000 bonus,
so start playing early to claim your prize, as jackpots
will be paid out on a first come, first served basis.
Text
found on PartyPoker’s
website explains how bonuses can be claimed: “To
make a claim, players must send an email to info@partypoker.com
and confirm their account name. PartyPoker
will respond to all claims within 48 hours in order
to verify all claims and ensure no fraudulent play
has taken place.” PartyPoker
expects to pay out bonuses within 48 hours.
The
$5,000 tournaments will kick off at 15:00 ET each
day during the Five Star Poker Challenge. According
to PartyPoker’s terms, a “day” runs
from 00:00 ET to 23:59 ET, so make sure to pick up
five Party Points during this time span to qualify.
Also
in December, PartyPoker
is holding the VIP Gift Accumulator for its VIP
members. All players need to do is earn Party Points.
Then, at certain thresholds, they’ll receive
rewards for their play, ranging from a $50 cash prize
to a $5,000 World Poker Tour (WPT) buy-in. Other prizes
include $100 in cash, an iPod Touch, $700 in cash,
and a 16 GB iPad, which will likely be one of the
hottest gift items for the holiday season. All prizes
are cumulative, which could make for a pretty full
stocking come Christmas morning.
The
VIP Gift Accumulator also includes a prize draw that
will shell out $10,000. The top payout in the prize
draw is $5,000, with cash sums of $3,000 and $2,000
also available. The VIP Gift Accumulator promotion
runs from December 1st to 14th, with the prize draw
occurring on December 17th. Players must opt into
the VIP Gift Accumulator in order to participate.
The
WPT buy-in is good for any event before March 31st.
Players who would rather not head to a live poker
tournament can opt for a cash alternative of $3,500.
In order to check out how many VIP Gift Accumulator
points you’ve earned, head to your PartyPoker

Virgin
Poker is all about value. Apologies for the marketing
speak but we've tried to pack as much extra value
into the great game of poker as possible.
That
naturally means freerolls and decent guaranteed tournaments
(without the whole world in them) but it also means
V*POINTS.
V*POINTS
are unique to Virgin Poker and players earn them for
every cash hand played on both tournament and cash
tables. Whether you win or lose you, every time you
play a hand you earn V*POINTS. Simple. Players can
then exchange V*POINTS for lots of Virgin extras.
That's Virgin Atlantic Flying Club miles, Virgin Vouchers
that can be spent on a variety of things from mobile
top-ups to digital downloads, and of course Virgin
Poker cash for the tables.

Card 2nd Chance™
