The Pokerfest III online festival ends this Sunday with the $1,500,000 guaranteed Main Event, a tournament you could play in for $1. Interested in how you can spend your dollar? Then keep on reading.

The $1,500,000 guaranteed Pokerfest III Main Event begins at 19:30 GMT on Sunday 5 May and costs $640 to buy into. However, thanks to the special relationship that PokerNews, PartyPoker and bwin share, PokerNews customers have the chance to win their way into the Pokerfest III Main Event for $1.

Check your diaries and make sure you keep 21:00 CEST free on Saturday May 4 because that is when the PokerNews Pokerfest Satellite kicks off. The PokerNews-exclusive satellite only costs $1 to enter so buying in is not going to break the bank, but despite the low buy-in, there is still going to be two Pokerfest III Main Event seats added to the prize pool! Furthermore, an additional Main Event seat will be added for every $640 in the prize pool.

This superb value satellite is only open to players who have created their PartyPoker or bwin accounts via PokerNews or PokerNews-related companies’ links and bonus codes. That’s correct. You can choose to play this satellite and the Pokerfest III Main Event on either PartyPoker or bwin!

If you do not have a bwin or PartyPoker account – you are allowed both by the way – then PokerNews can help you. Download bwin via PokerNews links and you will be able to compete in our special Pokerfest Main Event satellite. What’s more, you will also be eligible for a 100% match up to $500 bonus on your first deposit.

Those of you who prefer to play on PartyPoker can download the PartyPoker software via PokerNews and then claim a free $50 bankroll. All you need to do to get your hands on the free $50 bankroll is follow the steps below and $50 will be all yours.

• Download the PartyPoker software through PokerNews
• Create a new PartyPoker account and enter the bonus code “PN50FREE”
• Fill out the registration form in the PartyPoker cashier
• Return to PokerNews and fill out our brief registration form
• Check your email inbox for a confirmation email from free50@pokernews.com

Once you receive a confirmation email, $20 will be placed in your PartyPoker account. You must earn at least 40 PartyPoints before you will be able to withdraw the free $20. If you don’t earn 40 PartyPoints within 60 days, the initial $20, or whatever remains of it, will be forfeited. PartyPoints are earned at a rate of two PartyPoints per $1 in rake or tournament fees, so earning 40 within 60 days is easy.

Once you have earned 40 PartyPoints, an additional $30 will be deposited in your account, bringing the total free cash to $50. You must then generate 160 points before you can cash out any of the $30 and must do so within 120 days, otherwise the $30, or the remainder of it, will be forfeited.

What are you waiting for? Download bwin or PartyPoker now and win your way to the Pokerfest III Main Event.
