Chilipoker Raked Hand Race Starts Now
This November, Chilipoker is giving away free money to any players who play a minimum of 11 raked hands. No, that isn’t a typo. All you have to do to be eligible to play in one of the exclusive invitation-only freerolls, taking place on Nov.11, is have a Chilipoker account and play a minimum of 11 raked hands between Oct. 11 and Nov. 10. If you meet these qualifications, you will be invited to play in an exclusive $600 freeroll. Those who manage to log 111 raked hands during the qualification period will be awarded with entry into a $1,400 freeroll.
With the rake race already under way, be sure to get to the tables and start raking those hands to qualify for your place in one the exclusive invitation-only freerolls!
Qualifying Is So Easy
Chilipoker has made it ridiculously easy for players to qualify for at least one of the exclusive freerolls. Players only need 11 raked hands to qualify for the Rookie November, and those who put in a bit more volume will be awarded entry into the Big November just for playing 111 raked hands.
The Rookie November
Do you know how long it will take you to rake just 11 hands? We here at PokerNews would set the line at under 10 minutes. That means for just ten minutes play at the tables, you could be winning free money in one of the Chilipoker raked-hand race freerolls.
It really is as easy as hitting the tables during the qualification period, and when you have raked 11 hands you will be invited to play in the Rookie November where a free $600 prize pool will be up for grabs. Imagine having played 11 hands at the micro-stakes, effectively risking no money at all, and then being awarded entry into a freeroll that will pay out $200 to the eventual winner!
How to Qualify for The Rookie November: Play in 11 raked hands between Oct. 11 and Nov. 10.
The Big November
If you’re a player who will breeze past the 11 raked hand mark in no time, then don’t fret because players who manage to rake 111 or more hands will be awarded with an entry into the Big November where a staggering $1,400 will be given away to the qualifying players.
With cash games being raked from as low as the micro-stakes, the winner of the Big November could qualify to take a shot at the $400 first prize in the invitation-only freeroll for effectively no outlay. For the best possible outcome, we suggest you crush your opponents at the cash tables on your way to raking 111 hands and then take your seat in the exclusive freeroll and start crushing some more!
