Qualification for the next PokerNews $15,000 Sunday Million Freeroll on PokerStars ends soon. To qualify, all you need to do is download PokerStars, and when signing up, use the marketing code POKERNEWS.COM. Then you need to earn 75 VPPs during March and you’ll be eligible to play in the $15,000 Sunday Million Freeroll in April.

The next $15,000 Sunday Million Freeroll series from PokerNews and PokerStars kicks off April 10 at 14:35 EST.

The Payout

1st: $1,000
2nd: $750
3rd: $600
4th: $450
5th – 50th: $215 Sunday Million Ticket
51th – 260th: $11 Sunday 1/4 Million Ticket

To play in the series, all you need to do is download PokerStars via PokerNews, register a new account using our marketing code, POKERNEWS.COM, and earn 75 VPPs before the end of March. Existing PokerNews-referred PokerStars account holders are also welcome to play, as long as they achieve the VPP target.

Although 75 VPPs may seem like a lot, this turns out to be less than $13 in rake paid. That’s the equivalent of about 250 hands for a $1/$2 limit hold’em player, less than 400 hands for a $0.25/$0.50 no-limit hold’em player, or 13 $11 SNGs.

So download PokerStars today and earn 75 VPPs before it’s too late!
