Party Poker will be starting off 2012 with a bang, and it is you the online poker player who will reap the rewards.  Throughout January 2012 there will be zero rake charged on all multi-table tournaments.  That means that 100% of your money will go straight into the prize pool, with no fees to pay across the whole multi-table tournament schedule. This includes their flagship $200k guaranteed Sunday tournament which is normally a $200 + $15 buyin.  You will still be paying the $215, but instead the whole $215 goes into the prize pool.  Unfortunately the Party Poker Winter Million takes place on February 5, so a rake free on that tourney is a no-go.

There will also be a special Reload Bonus and a Depositor’s Freeroll in January.  Deposit using bonus code RAKEFREE and get a 100% bonus up to $100.  You will have 30 days from the date of deposit to meet the wagering requirements which is 8 points for every $1 released.

Deposit at least $50 with the RAKEFREE bonus code and you will also be entered into a $50,000 Freeroll which takes place on Sunday Feb 5 at 11:00 ET.

If you don’t have a Party Poker Account, SIGN UP now and receive a deposit bonus of 100% up to $600.
