On the heels of the successful $15K Blackjack WSOP Draw that wrapped up earlier this month at Bovada Poker, the site is now offering $1K Blackjack Draws every week. Just play the blackjack game made available in the Bovada Poker software (not the Bovada Casino blackjack game) at stakes of at least $5 per hand and gain entry into that week’s $1,000 grand prize draw. For every hand you play of blackjack in the Bovada Poker software you will get an additional ticket in that week’s drawing.

The $1K Blackjack Draw itself happens each Monday, and players can earn unlimited tickets into each one of them. The promotional week for the Bovada Poker $1K Blackjack Draw is from Monday at 00:00:00 ET through the following Sunday at 11:59:59 ET.

Remember, blackjack play at Bovada Casino does not count for this promotion. Only the blackjack you can play through the Bovada Poker software.

There is no rollover requirement (aka playthrough) for this cash award. Other standard Bovada Poker terms and conditions apply.

Meanwhile, in other Bovada Poker news, keep in mind you still have until June 2, 2013 to earn a VIP Vegas Vacation to play in the World Series of Poker. In addition to the $5K Vegas VIP Weekend prize package being awarded as the grand prize, players can also each earn $300 worth of bonuses, just by earning a requisite number of poker points in a given promotional week. Plus you get an entry into the drawing for the Vegas VIP Vacation grand prize.

And be sure to opt in to the promotion with the red Enter Now button on the Vegas VIP Vacation page at the Bovada website so that your poker points earnings will count toward cash bonuses and $5K grand prize package drawing.
