What can I do with my player points?
The points can soon be used for collecting various bonuses, qualifying for special tournaments and claiming freeroll tournament cash prizes.
You can also soon use your points to buy tournament tickets in the Ticket Vendor and buy bonuses in the Bonus Vendor.
Please note that all points earned will be balanced prior to the introduction of the bonus and tournament vendors plus the VIP scheme. Points previously earned for paid out bonuses will not count towards the new VIP/Vendor offers. Only new points from the date of introduction of the VIP scheme will count towards the various incentives on offer.
How do I earn player points?
You earn player points through playing games for real money at Ongame. These points accumulate by being active in raked hands. Player points are available at nearly all of the games for real money at Ongame such as any of our poker games, Black Jack, Caribbean Pirate Poker, Video Poker, Jackpot Slots,and Let It Ride.
Please Note: in Holdem and Omaha Ongame operates a 'no flop no drop' policy, but with effect from the 16th March a player will need to contibute to the pot in order to earn player points. In 7-Card Stud all players that are dealt cards will earn player points.
Each player that is eligible for points earns 0.1 player points for $0.10 that is raked in a pot.This implies that at most 3 player points can be earned per hand since the maximum rake cap lies at $3.
How long are my player points valid for?
Player Points are valid from the day they were collected including that month plus the following six full calendar months. Example: if you earn 10 PP the 15th of June they will expire 31st of December. The oldest Player Points will be used first, if you have 1000 Player Points and spend 100, it will it automatically be the oldest 100 Player Points spent.
