How to Earn PKR Points
PKR
Points are PKR’s way of rewarding loyal players for playing at
PKR Poker. As you play in real money ring games and tournaments,
you will automatically be rewarded with PKR Points.
These points can then be used to take advantage of a wide range of rewards that include things like bonus cash, free entry to tournaments, and poker merchandise.
PKR Points Rewards
In most industries, customer loyalty programs are just a bunch of talk that don’t really have any substance. When it comes to online poker, it’s a completely different story – especially at PKR.com. You won’t get a stupid little punch card at PKR. What you’ll get is access to a wide range of cash giveaways and real prizes.
Here are a few of the things you can do with your PKR Points:
1. Cash them in for gifts in the PKR Shop
You can use your points at the PKR Shop without having to spend real cash. The PKR Shop has everything from PKR apparel to iPods to Sony laptops. Other things you can purchase include buy-ins to major live tournaments, poker tables, poker chips, computer monitors, and more.
2. Use them to improve your character
If you want to stand out from the crowd, you can use your PKR points to purchase premium items that the other characters can’t get. It might be vain but it sure is fun! Players can purchase things like new clothing, new emotions, or even accessories like watches and glasses.
3. Gain entry to freeroll tournaments
PKR rewards its players with special freeroll tournaments that cost nothing to enter but, still give away real cash prizes. Use your PKR points to enter these exclusive tournaments with guaranteed prize pools.
4. Earn free cash
You can’t ever go wrong with free cash. If you don’t have anything else to do with your points, you can always turn them in for free cash bonuses. You’ll have to release these bonuses by playing in real money poker games, but if you were planning on playing anyways, it’s as good as free money.
5. Move up in Club PKR
Club PKR is designed to reward loyal players with special loyalty prizes that include things like special gifts, a subscription to Stacked Magazine, VIP access to live events, and much more. There are six levels in Club PKR, each one with increasingly attractive benefits. The more PKR points you earn, the higher up you travel in the club.
How to Earn PKR Points
Players can earn PKR points in one of two ways:
Real Money Ring Tables
PKR Points are awarded in cash games based on the rake of the pot and how much you contribute to each pot. Your points total can add up quickly in cash games because players can earn up to 150 points per hand.
The number of points given away in any single hand is based upon how much rake is taken. At the maximum $3 rake, PKR will give away 300 points. These points are then divvied out to each player in proportion to how much money they have contributed to each pot.
For example, if you and two other opponents get into a large pot and you each put in the same amount of money, you’ll both earn the same number of PKR Points. If $3 of rake is taken out of that pot, you’ll each earn 100 PKR Points.
Real Money Tournaments
Earning PKR points in tournaments is even easier. For every one dollar you pay in tournament fees, you’ll earn 100 PKR Points. If you enter a $20 + $2 tournament, you’ll earn 200 PKR points for playing in that tournament.
