Download Everest Poker through PokerNews now to get a Super Ticket to enter the Big Prime Freeroll!

Everest Poker has made it easier than ever for players to qualify for its largest weekly guarantee – the Big Prime Freeroll. Each week, Everest Poker is giving away up to 30 seats for the freeroll, which takes place every Saturday at 15:00 GMT and guarantees $75,000! Not only that, players can earn a Super Ticket for the Big Prime Freeroll simply by either opening an account and making a deposit, referring at least one friend during a qualifying period, or collecting 100 Summit Points or more during a qualifying period.

As if that wasn’t enough, every Saturday at 20:30 GMT, Everest Poker hosts the Big Prime Loyalty tournament, which guarantees 20 seats to the Big Prime. For that satellite, players can either buy-in directly with 1,000 Summit Points or win their way in via 50 or 100 Summit Point daily satellites.
