Promotion Information
YOU FIND WSOP 2011 HERE!
RakeBrain is offering all of our members the chance to be staked for the $10,000 WSOP Main Event this July.
We will be running qualification freerolls for all members interested in participating in the WSOP Staking Promotion in June.
Prizes:
- 1st Prize: WSOP Main Event Ticket, 50% of all prize money, free airfare and accommodation to Las Vegas
- 2nd Prize: $2,000
- 3rd Prize: $1,000
Staking is contingent on a 50/50 split of all winnings in the Main Event (airfare + accommodations paid for by RakeBrain).
The 'staked' member will receive 50% of any winnings in the Main Event, with RakeBrain giving 50% of any winnings to our members the following month through added promotions!
Qualification:
All RakeBrain new signs ups and members who rake during April and May will be invited to participate in the qualifying freeroll June 5th 2011.
Top 6 placements from the 'qualifying freeroll' will move onto a 12 player freeroll June 12th with 1st place prize being staked to the WSOP Main Event.
*** 6 RakeBrain VIP Members (selected by RakeBrain) will also participate in the 12 player freeroll June 12th 2011.
Staking Details:
The winner of the final 12 player freeroll will be offered a staking deal to the WSOP Main Event plus free travel and accommodation to Las Vegas. If the winner is unable to participate, the 2nd place winner in the freeroll would then receive the staking offer and so prizes being moved down.
RakeBrain is offering a 50/50 split on all winnings for the Main Event Staking promotion. RakeBrain's 50% of any winnings will be given to RakeBrain members through additional promotions in August 2011 (or December if the member plays the November 9).
