Poker Heaven €90,000 SnG race

January 22nd, 2010

For those SnG grinders looking for soft games, rakeback, a large signup bonus AND a lucrative rake race then just maybe Poker Heaven’s offerings for February and March might fit the bill.

Admittedly the Boss Media software makes mass-multitabling pretty challenging (there is a 2+2 thread detailing a couple of Boss Media mods that might help) but the shear abundance of fish should make up for that.

Here’s a rundown of the value of grinding Poker Heaven SnGs during this rake race:

1. A 200% up to €1000 signup bonus that clears at 13.33% rakeback for SnG players.

2. An additional 30% rakeback paid directly to your account each month via Poker Heaven.

3. An additional 20% boost on any rake race winnings you earn via our VIP program if you signup with Poker Heaven via our banner at the bottom of this page. Just leave a comment on this page if you’ve signed up for the race via us and we’ll get back to you straight away to confirm you’re enrolled.

4. VIP program – players receive monthly cash bonuses, reload bonuses and freerolls.

5. VIP store – players can spend FPPs to buy, LCD TVs, iPods, poker chip sets and exclusive poker trips to major live events.

6. The below SnG rake race is likely to add anywhere from 5-50% rakeback depending on your finishing spot.

€90,000 Sit ’n’ Go Race Series – Ready, Sit, Go!

Are you a Sit ‘n’ Go player? Are you the best of the best? Then the Poker Heaven Sit ‘n’ Go Race Series are for you! We will run six Sit ‘n’ Go Races from February until April with a total prize pool of €90,000 designed to reward the top Sit ‘n’ Go players at all levels. Compete in our Bronze, Silver and Gold Races, all with different buy-ins to suit everyone’s bankroll and preference.
