January is Rake Free Tourmament Month at Party Poker

Last Updated on


For the entire month of January 2012, Party Poker is suspending the tournament rake for all tournaments at the site.

The tournament rake is the fee listed after the buy-in cost, such as in $20 + $2, the $2 is the rake. In most sites, this is called the tournament “fee”. In any case, that amount will be added into the respective tournament prize pools rather than be taken out by the site as a fee or rake. So in the above example, the full buy-in for that tournament in January of 2012 will be $22 still, but 100% of that cost will be in the prize pool, rather than only $20 of it. When you consider how many players enter each tournament, that little bit adds up to a much bigger potential prize pool from the same tournaments.

As part of this promotion, Party Poker is also giving players two extra ways to boost their bankroll for these tournament deals and only one eligibility requirement to earn both. The first is a 100% reload bonus up to $100. Minimum eligible deposit is $50 and you must use the bonus code: RAKEFREE to claim the bonus. Claim this bonus and you’ll also gain free entry into a $50,000 Depositor’s Freeroll. That event takes place at 11:00 ET on February 5, 2012.

Remember, all Rake Free promotions–that’s the Rake Free Tournaments, 100% Reload Bonus and $50K Depositor’s Freeroll–are valid from midnight January 1 to the minute before midnight on January 31.
