The room is introducing plenty of new tournaments, including the €60,000 guaranteed Masters tournament on every Sunday.

Microgaming has always been pretty creative with tournament and promotion names and the new tournaments bear the names of popular casino slots titles for a littlbe bit of cross-promotion.

A new €215 buy-in tournament on Monday (€10,000) guarantee will for example be called Mega Moolah while Thursday's €215/€10k guaranteed will run under the Thunderstruck Thursday name.


Other additions to the schedule include the following tournaments:

PLOt Thickens - €55 buy-in, €2,000 guarantee
Kilobyte - €3.30 buy-in, €500 guarantee
Megabyte - €33 buy-in, €2,500 guarantee
Gigabyte - €110 buy-in, €7,500 guarantee

The biggest new tournament in the schedule is the €320 buy-in, €60,000 guaranteed Masters, which will run evey Sunday.

The new tournaments will be available from next Monday and soon after the network will be hosting the Four Card Fright Fest, an Omaha tournament series with a Halloween theme. You can read about the Four Card Fright Fest in detail here.


In November, the network will be running a Cyber Mondays promotion where they reduce the buy-ins and increase the guarantees (to a total of €100,000) of the new Monday tournaments.

Rakerace.com players in the Microgaming network can also take advantage of various exclusive and central promotions to get the most value out of their play.

Betsson is running a €4,000 exclusive race and a €20,000 pooled race in October and a $2,000 exclusive points race in November.

The Betsson race is available through four rooms of the Betsson Group (Betsson, Triobet, Nordicbet and Betsafe) and players registered through Rakerace.com can also take advantage of the first deposit bonus and the Loyalty Program to earn further details.

November on Rakerace.com - Take a look at our outstanding offers!


We are glad to announce, that all of our partner rooms have extended our partnership for November 2016, so we are still running the same line-up of rooms as last month. Take a look at our list of exclusive races:


Highlights:

PokerKing - the weak player pool of the Winning Poker Network is a bait that attracts many poker players. How about an exclusive race besides the available promotions to boost your earnings. The PokerKing exclusive race has been increased to $1,500 for November, so we expect 15-20% cashback for our players just from the race!

Betsson - Microgaming discontinued rake races, so we have another plan to make our players earn value back! The "Raise Your Stack" promo allows players to collect chips to a flip tournament worth $3,000. You only have to collect 200 Player Points, but the more you collect, the better your chances are for winning!

PartyPoker - What could be better than a monthly $4,000 cash race? Well, try a monthly $4,000 cash race guaranteed at least through March 2017!

Good luck and have fun at the tables!

Outstanding cashback available for Twister players in our Everest Poker race!

As you may have heard, Everest Poker returned to RakeRace last month with $3,000 played out in monthly rake races.

What makes this especially interesting is that you can earn double points by playing Twister games! The races are played out in 3 x $1,000 10-day races.


If you take a look at the results of the first race, you can see that a player could win the first-place $250 prize with 7,000 points. Playing Twister games, this would only be €350. Considering that you can also enjoy the benefits of the VIP system (which is roughly paying back 27.5% for €1,100 monthly rake) and the first deposit bonus (worth 25% cashback), you can quickly realize you can even earn 100% returns!

Don't forget the fact that points generated on 20 November will count in both races!

From December 1st, there won't be any private rake races in the Microgaming network. This meant that we couldn't host any promotions like that either, which is why we have successfully trialled a different type of promotion on Stan James Poker and Betsson Poker.

In November and December as well, you can play in both exclusive promotions:

Stan James Poker - exclusive chase - 1 - 30 November 2016
Stan James Poker - exclusive chase - 1 - 31 December 2016
Betsson Poker - exclusive chase - 1 - 30 November 2016
Betsson Poker - exclusive chase - 1 - 31 December 2016

Betsson Poker - Microgaming - the €20.000 promotion continues!

From December onwards, the usual €20k promotion will be held in a somewhat different fashion than our exclusive chase.


Players will take part in a leaderboard promotion, which will result in the top 100 players will be invited in a €20,000 monthly freeroll. Players will start with stacks based on their generated rake. Because a small-stack player can still win the freeroll, there is a chance of winning thousands of Euros starting from the last place. Naturally, the best chance to win is to have the biggest stack, so it pays out to grind as well!

Betsson Poker - pooled chase - 1 - 31 December 2016

With no private rake races on Microgaming, it is still great value to play on RakeRace's exclusive promotions!

Unibet Poker 2.0 launches – Win a trip around the world!

It is up to the players, how much will be paid out in our exclusive cash race!

As a member of the Winning Poker Network (WPN), PokerKing already offers a soft player pool, but we have decided we pass the incentive to the players: As the collective generated rake of players increase, so will the prize pool!

This means that the $2,000 cash race could award up to $4,000!

Introducing the Target Cash Race! - the more the rake, the higher the prize pool


Our succesful cash race will start with a $2,000 prize pool. However, if the collective monthly rake will reach $18,000, the prize pool will instantly grow to $3,000! And if you reach $26,000 by the end of February, the original prize pool will double, which means we will be handing out $4,000!

It means it is one for all, all for all! Invite your friends to help to reach the goals!

Is the tigergaming rakerace done As in not being offered anymore?

Hello,

Yes, unfortunately there will be no TigerGaming rake race this month and it is uncertain whether it's going to be re-launched or not.

But there's plenty of other exclusive rake races you can join through our site, here's a list sorted by the average expected rakeback.

On Everest Poker only 9 players entered so far for 20 paying places which makes for a great opportunity to finish in the money.

Great Expected Value on iPoker



Don't miss out on an opportunity like this - in two iPoker network rooms, Everest and Betclic fewer players compete in our exclusive rake races than there are positions that pay!

On Everest Poker only 12 users are up of 20 paying places, while on Betclic 18 of you fight for also 20 ITM positions.

This means the odds are in your favor. In February, many of our members scored over 100% rakeback in the race thanks to the similarly scarce competition. You can do it too in March!
