Leading online poker room PartyPoker.com has announced a special leaderboard challenge promotion that will award 35 packages to attend Munich’s world-famous Oktoberfest alongside a total of $75,000 in cash
The Gibraltar-licensed domain will hold four week-long point races next month beginning from August 2 with $2,000 and 1,000 points for each of the four winners. The runners-up will each receive $1,500 in cash and 975 points while those finishing in third spot will take home $1,200 and 950 points.
Participants finishing in the top 100 will take away cash prizes each week while points will be awarded all the way down to 500th spot.
“We've got 35 of these unique packages to give away via our brand-new style of leaderboard challenge where there's also $75,000 in cash prizes to be won,” read a statement from PartyPoker.com.
“From August 2, we'll be holding four weekly VIP points races. Each week you'll be able to win your share of our big-money prize pools as well as gain valuable points towards our overall Oktoberfest leaderboard. Please note that this promotion is exclusive to Palladium Lounge members only and requires a weekly opt-in.
“This new style of leaderboard means there's a whole four weeks of competition. No one player can run away with the lead after just a few days as there are vital leaderboard points up for grabs for the entire duration of the promotion.”
This special leaderboard promotion will end on August 29 with the top-placed 35 players each receiving two night's accommodation with breakfast at a five-star hotel in Munich for themselves and a friend alongside two passes to Oktoberfest on Saturday evening. There will also be a special dinner with an open bar followed by a poker tournament in the Davidoff Lounge at the city’s Allianz Arena alongside entry to a VIP party at Pacha and an activity or spa treatment.
