PokerNews and PokerStars have come together to bring you a PokerNews-exclusive freeroll that has a massive $22,500 prize pool, but you are in serious danger of missing out on it because qualification ends at midnight tonight!

New Year’s Eve is traditionally a night spent partying and celebrating with loved ones but put that to one side, for a few hours at least, and get yourself qualified for the PokerNews-exclusive $22,500 PokerStars Freeroll. As the bells sound and 2013 rolls in, you could be signing Auld Lang Syne safe in the knowledge that you have a seat to this amazing freeoll locked up!

The PokerNews $22,500 Freeroll is only open to players who have downloaded and signed up to PokerStars using the PokerNews links and marketing codes. New customers who have entered the marketing code “POKERNEWS.COM” when creating their PokerStars account will need to make their first real-money deposit onto PokerStars between Dec. 1 and 31 and a seat in the $22,500 freeroll will be all theirs.

Existing customers who have a PokerStars account that was created via PokerNews will have already been enjoying the benefits of our previous promotions, which over the past two years have had combined prize pools in excess of $500,000. These players can also get involved in the $22,500 freeroll by simply generating 100 VPPs between Dec.1 and 31. It’s as simple as that.

The $22,500 freeroll is set to take place on Jan. 7, 2013 at 14:00ET (19:00 WET), and the giant prize pool will be paid out in accordance to PokerStars’ standard payout structure. Make sure you keep that date free in your busy schedules because you do not want to miss out on the chance to give your bankroll a substantial boost at the turn of the new year.

Download PokerStars through PokerNews, enter the marketing code “POKERNEWS.COM” and the bonus code “STARS600” and you will be eligible for a 100% match bonus on your deposit up to $600.
