Party Poker Hits The Accelerator for $67,000 in Cash & Prizes

Last Updated on


Party Poker has launched a new points race promotion for the month of September, 2011, and like other similar races of past PartyPoker promotions, in this one players are racing only themselves and the clock. In the Party Poker Accelerator race, like their previous Snowball promotion, players try to earn as many PartyPoker Points as they possibly can in the time allowed — in this case the one month period between September 1 and 30. The more points a player can accumulate, not only the bigger the prizes in store, but the more prizes also — as every prize a player earns the player gets to keep, even as they advance up the tiers toward ever-increasing rewards.

The prizes start out with freeroll entries, worth $2,000 for 5 PartyPoker Points, $5,000 for 25 PartyPoker Points, $10,000 for 50 PartyPoker Points, $15,000 for 100 PartyPoker Points and $25,000 for 200 PartyPoker Points. Then, with entries to all $57,000 in freerolls, players start to earn cash, climbing from $3 for 300 PartyPoker Points all the way to $10,000 for 75,000 PartyPoker Points.

Players will be awarded each of the prizes they earn in succession as soon as they reach the set number of points to release each one. After one minute before midnight on September 30, the Accelerator promotion ends and the Accelerator freerolls begin, taking place one per day starting with the $2K event and ending with the $25K event between October 3 and 7, each at 2:30 pm ET.

Remember: you must opt-in to the Accelerator promotion at the Party Poker website or the “My Accounts” section of their PartyPoker lobby before the points you earn in September will start being applied toward earning you prizes.
