Everest Poker is running a special rake race promotion throughout February with $20,000 in potential prizes.
The promotion makes sure to not single out low stakes grinders, as the weekly leader boards are broken up into medium stakes and low stakes. Also, the winners are selected by number of hands played instead of rake paid, so anyone playing any stake has an equal shot.
The top 10 of each category gets a cash prize at the end of each of the 4 weeks of the month, making for 80 cash prizes that total $6,000. $300 is the top prize for the medium stake player of each week, and $150 is the top prize for the low stake race.
Any low stake grinder knows that is a hefty piece of cheese, but those cash prizes are just the beginning. All of this culminates in a $3,000 freeroll for the top 100 players (50 from each race) with some creative rules. The player who had the most raked hands over the 4-week promotion has access to a $10,000 jackpot! That player needs to win the tournament to get that massive prize, and he/she is sure to have their chances to build their stack as they’ll have a $100 bounty on their head that players will be aiming at.
The tournament will be hosted by World Champion Fabrice Soulier who will also have a $100 bounty on his head. Any player who knocks out the top rake racer and the world champ will parlay that feat into a $1,000 bounty prize.
As you might be able to tell, the promotion is built to give plenty of players plenty of opportunities to cash in. Just so long as you put in the necessary hands, you’re guaranteed the cash prizes given out every week, but then there’s access to so much more for those seeking a big haul.
