There is still time to win big with a festive promotion from paddypowerpoker.

Christmas Comes Early started on November 21, and will carry on until December 16 at 23:59 GMT.

The prizes can be exchanged for cash.

These prizes in addition to the normal benefits at paddypowerpoker can be worth up to 40% cashback.

Tell-a-Friend Fast Two: Earn an Additional $2 for Just 1 StrategyPoint



This winter we have our easiest ever Tell-a-Friend promotion. A $2 bonus for every new friend referred who earns just a single StrategyPoint. This is on top of the normal Tell-a-Friend commission you can earn for referring friends.


1 StrategyPoint = 2 Fast Dollars

This winter you can earn $2 extra for every referred friend who signs up in December and earns just 1 StrategyPoint by January 5, 2013.

This means that even if they bust their free poker money right away, you would still get a commission payment for them.

This is on top of the normal Tell-a-Friend commission which can be worth up to $500 per player.



This promotion is based on StrategyPoints earned from real money play only. Deposit promotions or other StrategyPoints promotions do not count towards this promotion.

Discussion Forum: Tell-a-Friend Fast Two

How to refer a friend

Referring a friend is as simple as giving them your PokerStrategy.com referral link, getting them to join PokerStrategy.com via our marketing material, or them giving us your PokerStrategy.com user name when they sign up.

Then your friend has to sign up to one of our online poker partners and start playing real money poker. Every time they achieve a certain StrategyPoints target they generate more commission for you.

Exclusive Gemstone VIP promotion goes into the next round - with even more value for you!!!

The Gemstone VIP Promotion will be returning in 2013, with the twist that now even 2,500 monthly StrategyPoints (from $500 rake) will earn you consistent rewards throughout the calendar year.

The objective is simple: Earn Gemstones for every 2,500 SP (from $500 rake) or 7,500 SP (from $1500 rake) you earn per calendar month.

Collect as many Gemstones throughout 2013 as possible and collect your well-deserved rewards at the end of the promotion!

• Each Gemstone will pay you $25!
• Each Gemstone will pay you $75!

Find out more about the exclusive Gemstone VIP promotion!!!

Excuse me, we forgot to list some important information here that is of course not obvious!

Cliffs:

1. The participating rooms are William Hill (iPoker), Ladbrokes (Microgaming), 24h Poker (Microgaming), Poker Heaven (IPN) and Cake Poker.

2. All of the cash returns of the Gemstone promotion are on top of the full VIP system & our exclusive races.

3. In January, you get triple gemstones & thus triple cash!

4. It's a year long promotion - thus, it's based on loyalty. Read the promo details carefully to get the full reward.





January triple Gemstones

Example: you earn 7,500 SP in William Hill.
This means you paid $1,500 of rake.
You get 3x3=9 green Gemstones + 3x1 red Gemstone.
This means you get Gems worth 9x $25 + 3x $75 = $450.
If you continuously play to keep all Gemstones, this means an additional 30% rakeback - on top of the VIP system & our rake race!


Consistency pays off: deductions system

The Gemstone VIP Promotion rewards consistent play throughout the year - missing months will count against you!

Miss one month of green and/or red Gemstones:
1x green and/or red Gemstone is deducted from your total balance at the start of the following month.

Miss sequential months:
Green and/or red Gemstone balance reset to 0.

Example 1: BobbyFishSticks earns 19 green Gemstones from January to July 2013, but he fails to earn a Gemstone in August. 1x green Gemstone is deducted from his yearly total at the start of September.

Example 2: BobbyFishSticks earns 5 green and 1 red Gemstones each month from January to July. He then earns only 2 green Gemstones per month from August until December. His red Gemstone balance is reset to 0 in October.


Further information

Deductions of green Gemstones and red Gemstones are independent - if you lose your red Gemstone balance, you will still be able to cash in your green Gemstones if you do not miss earning 2,500SPs in consecutive months.

It is not possible to have a negative Gemstone balance. If you miss consecutive months, you'll have to start from the beginning - but you won't be grinding your way out of negative figures.


Get paid in January 2014

In January 2014, your Gemstones will be paid out into the poker account of the rooms where they were earned.

Read all details in our news:
http://www.pokerstrategy.com/news/pokerstrategy/67237/

Hello,

This is a great opportunity for me as I do not have both HM2 and gala/coral account yet. (I have PT4). But I dont sure if I can register at gala or coral.

I'm from Indonesia. Can you check if I'm allowed to register at gala or coral? These room do not appear if I clicked link at http://www.pokerstrategy.com/online-poker-rooms/

Hey sangalla,

We check with Gala/Coral, if they allow registrations from Indonesia and get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Joerg
