888poker Goes Hollywood With Its Royal Premiere Promotion

Who said the glitz and glam of Hollywood was reserved for the A-listers?

888poker doesn’t seem to think so; and to make this a moot point, the online poker room is coming out with its newest poker promotion – the Royal Premiere!

At the heart of it, the promotion is a special poker freeroll series that guarantees to pay out $300,000 in cash and prizes; easily making it the freeroll event of the season. Without wasting any more time, let’s get into the details.

Lights! Camera! 888poker!

The Royal Premiere – A Few Details

While the Royal Premiere has already hit the ground running, don’t worry – there’s more than enough time to try your luck. The 888poker promotion will be running through almost the entire summer, concluding only on August 18th. Until then, you have the chance to play your way into some epic freeroll tournaments, even those with a $20,000 prize pool!

The promotion is a three-fold affair; it comprises three separate freerolls, all just waiting for you to play your way into them. There’s the $500 Red Carpet Freeroll, taking place three times per day, the $4,000 Silver Screen Freeroll, played each Sunday, and finally the crème de la crème, the $20,000 Golden Era Freeroll, running only once each month.

To enter each of the three freerolls, you’ll need a ticket. Luckily, obtaining one is relatively simple. However, as each freeroll comes with it’s own set of terms, condition, and fine print, we’ve broken down everything you need to know about each one below!

$500 Red Carpet Freeroll

Think of the the $500 Red Carpet Freeroll as your appetizer.

The freeroll is running three times per day, Monday through Saturday; meaning this is the place you have the biggest chance of catching your (relatively) big break. To receive a ticket (up to three per day) for the red carpet, players need to complete any combination of the following daily challenges:

  • Poker Tournaments – play poker tournaments (including BLAST), with buy-ins totaling $5 or more
  • Sports Betting – place bets totaling $2 on any sports events
  • Casino Games – place bets totaling $2 in any casino games
  • Cash Games – win a cash game with any royal card on tables with minimum stakes of $0.01/$0.02

 $4,000 Silver Screen Freeroll

The $4,000 Silver Screen Freeroll is the second tier of this freeroll cake.

The freeroll will run once per week, every Sunday at 06:00 PM GMT. To earn a ticket to the silver screen, players will need to complete nine challenges during a calendar week. All the eligible challenges are listed below:

  • Poker Tournaments – play poker tournaments (including BLAST), with buy-ins totaling $5 or more
  • Sports Betting – place bets totaling $2 on any sports events
  • Casino Games – place bets totaling $2 in any casino games
  • Cash Games – win a cash game with any royal card on tables with minimum stakes of $0.01/$0.02

Just keep in mind a maximum of three challenges per day will be counted towards the weekly freeroll ticket challenge. In translation, players will need to play at least three days per week to make their way into the $4,000 Silver Screen Freeroll. The tickets you earn during the week will be valid for 14 days.

$20,000 Golden Era Freeroll

The most coveted Royal Premiere tournament of all, the $20,000 Golden Era Freeroll – it can’t be easy to secure a seat at the table, right?

Wrong. Just like the previous two freerolls, players need to complete one of the following challenges and grind their way into the tournament.

  • Cash Games – win five cash game hands (including Snap) with a pair of kings
  • Finish in the Money – finish in the money in three tournaments (excluding BLAST and freerolls)
  • Blackjack – win five games of Blackjack with a Jack

Since the Golden Era Freeroll will take place only once per month (three times in total), consider securing your spot ahead of time. The poker tournament will run at 4:00 p.m. GMT on June 22, and 6:00 p.m. GMT on July 13 and August 17.
