What's up poker players! I'm a big fan of poker and online poker and I will be giving you some industry updates, poker strategies, and inside information on online poker!
If you know anything about online poker, then you've probably heard of PokerStars. PokerStars.com is the largest poker room in the world, and hosts over 200,000 players simultaneously during peak hours.
Today I'm going to talk about the PokerStars VIP club, which is one of the best poker player points programs available in all of online poker.
PokerStars VIP Club
Starting with the very first time you play a poker hand with real money you move up to the PokerStars VIP Club. It's an exciting place to be and the more you play, the more rewards you will earn! How does a seat at the World Series of Poker sound? Or a MILLION DOLLAR Prize Pool? Here's how you can get into the action...It's easy! Play any game for real money and you are at the starting line -- the Bronze Star VIP. From your first game as a BronzeStar member you will begin to earn the currency of PokerStars the VIP Player Points (V P P's) and the Frequent Player Points ( F P P's).
V P P's are measured on both a monthly and yearly basis and you earn them in any game that has a rake (fee) as long as you are there until the end of the game. The more points you earn, the higher your VIP level -- and the better the benefits! You don't redeem V P P's -- just watch them as they grow and get you to the higher Star levels.
F P P's are awarded as a percentage of your V P P's -- you earn starting from 50% F P P bonus (at the Silver Level) to 500% F P P bonus (at the Supernova Elite Level). Then the fun continues because you can spend these points all over the PokerStars site and get to major tournaments around the world!
Your first stop might be a trip to the PokerStars VIP store where you will have a great selection of exciting things to choose from. Everything from leather bike jackets, poker accessories, books and gadgets -- including Luxury Poker Chip sets with gold plated hinges!
Keep moving up in the club and you'll be eligible for plasma TV's, travel gift certificates, lap top computers, LIVE tournaments around the world -- oh, and did we mention CASH? Yes, absolutely!
So here are the goals:
BronzeStar VIP -- just start playing with real money. You'll earn a F P P for each V P P.
Get just 1,200 V P P's in a month and move up to SilverStar -- cash bonuses start here!
3000 V P P' s gives you the GoldStar - and a monthly $100,000 FREE ENTRY tournament!
7,500 V P P's earns you = the coveted PlatinumStar -- with all the previous benefits PLUS an opportunity to use your F P P's to buy into major events like the European Poker Tour!
PokerStars will track your yearly V P P's and when you hit 100,000 during a calendar year, you have made it -- Supernova VIP -- with the opportunity to enter the World Series of Poker Main Event!
Now for the big one - at 1,00,000 V P P's per calendar year, you earn a free entry to the World Championship of Online Poker -- PLUS a free entry to a major world tournament of your choice -- PLUS $10,000 to spend while you are there!
