Christmas season is the busiest time for all poker operators. The days are short, the evenings long and many casual poker players come back to the virtual tables for some action and fun.

Naturally all operators try to get the players engaged in their product and most offer extra incentives during the holiday season.

Today we take a look at the Christmas program Bet365 poker has in store for its players.

Bet365 offers a poker advent calendar which offers up to €1,000 in cash each day. The calendar works rather simple:

• Each day you can open the calendar once and you receive a mission to fulfill. (Those missions are more or less simple tasks like “Be dealt JJ at a Twister Tournament”.)
• After fulfilling a mission you get to spin the Advent Calendar Prize Wheel and will receive a random prize. We break down the prizes below.

Bet365 Advent Missions

Those are the missions for each day:

Some of the missions are almost trivially easy to fulfil while other a bit more difficult, but all of them should be easily done within one or two hours of regular play.

Bet365 Advent Calendar Prize Breakdown

Those are the prizes you can win when spinning the Advent Calendar Prize Wheel:

The top prize is very difficult to get – only 1 in 100,000 spins will net you €1,000. But the average expected value of each spin is worth roughly 90 Cent.

Let’s say you’re playing 20 out of the 24 days. Then on average you can expect to win €18 extra through the Christmas promotion. While this probably won’t make you rich right away, it’s extra value just for playing.
