Party Poker VIP: The High Roller

[No_Skillz_]

I just received this email from Party Poker:


Hi xxxxx,

Take advantage of an exclusive chance to win a share of $300,000 and get even more cash for your PartyPoints.


Not only will you be able to swap your PartyPoints for instant cash for the duration of the promotion, but you’ll also get a slice of a $300,000 USD prize pool if you’re one of the top 150 points earners.

Earn the most points and you’ll take home a huge $20,000, guaranteed.

You can cash in your PartyPoints at the end of every week. Points will be worth the following amounts:

PartyPoints earned in a week Exchange value per PartyPoint (USD)
150 3 cents
750 3.5 cents
2,500 4 cents
4,000 4.5 cents
6,000 5.5 cents

Reach the dizzy heights of the High Roller

Becoming a high roller is easy. Just play on your favorite Party sites and accumulate PartyPoints as usual.

You’ll be ranked on the High Roller Leader Board according to how many points you earn during the promotion. The Leader Board will be updated daily from February 28.

Six weeks to get to the top

Once you’re on the board it’s a straight race to the top. The $300,000 USD prize pool will be split between the top 150 Highest Rollers at the end of the six weeks. Prizes will be awarded as follows:

Prize structure

Prize Number of players Cash (USD)
1st prize 1 $20,000
2nd prize 5 $10,000
3rd prize 11 $5,000
4th prize 28 $2,500
5th prize 105 $1,000

Remember, all you need to earn is 4,000 PartyPoints to make it onto the Leader Board. From there on it’s a race to the top.

The High Roller will run from February 27 to April 9, so make sure you're ready.

Sincerely,
The PartyAccount Team

nice. Notice they increased the value since the last promo, wich gave 4.5cent at 6k points.

[netstorm]

Got the same email. Then converted it into rakeback with this promo.

at 6max 100nl, the highest PP points a week, 6000 points, amounts a little over 11% rakeback. I dont know how it is calculated for the other limits, but it doesnt look that good after doing some math.

Or can anyone tell me Im wrong?

[Overi]

Can anyone tell me if this really is a VIP offer or did everyone get it? Because I was turned down by Party VIP about a month ago and now I received this.

[ClockWyze]

I am a VIP and didn't recieve this.

Does anyone know if tournament points count as well as cash games?

If it is only cash game points fixed limit players will CRUSH this!

[nufc4ever]

all points will count because all players get points of the same variety no matter what you play. however there is bound to be an opitimal game to play to achieve points the quickest.

but also notice theyve nixed the lump sum bonus for achieving a certain amount of points over the course of the promotion.

ya but you got the $20k to fight for instead

How good is the party promotion in comparison with point for cash at UB, isnt it much easier to get points at UB:
750-999 UltimatePoints earned – convert to cash at a rate of 3 cents per point

1000-1999 UltimatePoints earned - convert to cash at a rate of 5 cents per point

2000 or more UltimatePoints earned - convert to cash at a rate of 7.5 cents per point
