Ok, here is what I know about the Christmas promotion that InterPoker is doing. This info comes right off a mailer that they sent to someone on another board. This falls in line from everything else that I had heard about this promo. However, of course we will have to wait until each particular day to see if this info is 100% accurate.

This information will be appearing on the following website the day of the given promotion: www.interpoker.com/12days

December 13th: 20% match deposit bonus
December 14th: $10 for pocket Queens
December 15th: 10x payout for being a prop player
December 16th: All tournament fees refunded
December 17th: $10 for pocket Kings
December 18th: $10 free
December 19th: $50K gauranteed tournament
December 20th: $10 for pocket Aces
December 21st: $20 free
December 22nd: $1000 prize drawing
December 23rd: Five poker points tournaments
December 24th: $30 free

Makes me wonder why the bigger sites like Party/Empire, etc. don't have promos like this. Although, being as big as they are they will still get the traffic they always get by just being Party Poker that a site like Interpoker has to pimp for.

 Deposit the 12th to get the 100% match bonus.
Deposit the 13th to get the 20% match bonus.
Play on the 14th and pray for QQ (once per hour hopefully)
Play on the 17th and pray for KK
Play long enough on the 18th to get $10 free
Play on the 20th and pray for AA
Play on the 21st long enough to get $20 free
Play on the 24th long enough to get $30 free

Hopefully after all this time the December match bonuses will be clear and i can rest a week before going after the January bonus.

Yo Mike!!!! Those 10 20 and 30 frees are mine if u get em straight up or have to deposit or whatever - i dont give away free money Anyway u want to do the 20% match bonus just added to our current deal - Im not sure what the max is gonna be but just stay with the percentage of our current deal? Let me know.



And feel free to take a break from mine if u need to clear shit on your own accounts. Ill never play it so u can take as long as you want and I can make the deposits for the match bonus and everything.

Unsure, but I would assume a minimum number of raked hands.

They have good freerolls, and the players are bad. Unless you mean something else when you say I'm Nuts.

Also, they have upped the wagering requirements for this promotion from their customary 5x to 10x raked hands. So, if you deposit $250 and get the max of $50 bonus you must play 500 raked hands to clear.

For the regular monthly bonus, if you deposited $100 to get the full $100 bonus you also need to play 5x the raked hands or 500 raked hands to clear that bonus.

I would imagine that if you've already deposited for the monthly bonus and haven't cleared it yet then this bonus will just piggy-back that one.

Hey all I done some calcs on the QQ/KK/AA free $10 thingy and its worth around 4.5c a hand (involved or not 1:220 or was that 1:219 ??). So don't play there specifically for that bonus if you feel you could do better else where on that day i.e. PP...

 Hey, thanks for the post guys, you helped me decide where to take my action for the month. I just opened an account at InterPoker. Offering a nice 100% deposit bonus for up to $100, so I deposited $100.

Probably deposit again to get the extra 20% you guys mentioned on the 13th.

If anyone else is interested in joining, here's the FTR link to sign up to InterPoker.

I'll take some notes and write up a review of this room. Right now, it's Saturday morning, 9:30am PT, and there are 3062 connected players. That's not bad...

 I had better hurry and make my deposit. It sucks that I have to play 500 hands to get a measly $50 bonus. Damn Interpoker....

Its 11 pm EST Sunday Night, and there are 870 players online. Not too good, but you have to remember this is an european site.

They just unveiled the terms for the "Free $10" day on the 18th. You must enter a bonus code prior to playing that day and then you must play 200 raked hands before they will deposit the $10 into your account. The 200 raked hands must be played on the 18th (the site says the 13th but I am certain that that is a misprint).

So, basically, 20x the raked hands for the $10. Kinda harsh with their slow software. If they do 20x on the days they offer the $20 and $30 then I doubt that I can see myself playing 600 raked hands at Interpoker in one day to get $30. The software is just waaaaaaay to slow to stick around for 600 raked hands (which would be close to 800 total hands of poker). Again, not certain if this is how they will do the $20 and $30 promos but that would suck if it is.

 I deposited 500 dollars and they only gave me a 50 dollar bonus...I called them and they said it was a mistake but would take 3-4 days to show up in my account.

Was this deposit for the monthly 100% match or did you use the bonus code for the 20% bonus for today's promo? The 20% promo is only up to $50 max.

It requires 10 x's bonus amount in raked hands. You should clear the bonus by next xmas.

Well, I went to take advantage of the 20% deposit bonus last night only to be greeted with a message telling me there was no promotion associated with the bonus code (PEARTREE) that I provided.

I wasn't in the mood to be e-mailing support over it so, oh well. Anyone else have this issue? I saw many people on 2+2 had a similar problem with this bonus code.

On the 1st day of Christmas, I got screwed out of a deposit bonus......

No big deal. Not really going to worry about it.

Anyone hit the pocket Q's yet today for the promo?
