Online Poker Strike Update: Partypoker Brings Back The Gladiator
Whatever you think of the protest that some players organized to convince PokerStars to rethink some of their policies - one thing is for sure: you want to play poker.
Whether you chose to take a break from the world’s biggest online poker until December 3 or not, nothing can be strong enough to keep you away from the virtual felt for three consecutive days. Let’s face, it’s just not going to happen.
Put Your Time To Good Use With The Gladiator
One of Partypoker’s most appreciated promotions is back this month and promises to give you plenty to enjoy the holiday season. The Gladiator runs throughout December and rewards all the player who remember to opt-in in time with tickets to play for a share of $10,000 in seven amazing freerolls and free cash for up to $4,000.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
- Opt-in to the promotion via the desktop client
- Play your games and earn points on multiple days playing any form of real money poker
Do You Know What’s Better Than a Big, Fat Freeroll?
Easy: SEVEN big, fat freerolls. One of the best parts of the new edition of The Gladiator is that your games in December allow you to unlock some great freerolls running on Sunday, January 3, 2016.
Earn one point on five different days in December, and you will receive a ticket to a $250 freeroll taking place on Jan. 3. Put together one point on ten different days, and the guarantee of your freeroll will go all the way up to $500.
Do you know what happens if you manage to put together 10 points a day on 15 days? The freeroll you will play on Jan 3 will have a guarantee of $3,500!

Note: You don’t have to earn your points on consecutive days. All the tournaments take place at 12:00 ET on Sunday, Jan. 3, 2016. For players using CET, each day starts at 06.00 CET and ends at 05.59 CET. For players using ET, a day starts at 00.00 ET and ends at 23.59 ET.
What About The Free Cash?
Although there’s a lot of money to be won in the tournaments running in January, the points you earn in December are going to give you also that one thing every poker player loves more than free tournaments: free money.
Once you opt-in to the promotion, every single point you earn with your real money games at partypoker translates into tournament tickets and free money.
While you need only 20 points on five different days to earn a $5 bonus, partypoker gives you the opportunity to bring home up to $4,000 if you can dedicate to your games the time it takes to collect as much as 1,200 points in 30 days.
