This week, PokerStars announced it would award double Frequent Player Points to players who played in cash ring games from 3PM-4PM ET and 10PM-11PM ET. This promotion will last until June 18. If you're one of the few who haven't figured out the benefits of FPPs, now may be the time to take a look at the program.
Take a look at this page to learn how you can earn FPPs and how you can use them to use them to buy into tournaments and buy PokerStars gear.
More than that, FPPs can get you noticed. How?
Well, consider PokerStars player Hassan. Hassan is one of PokerStars most frequent players. He started off as a part-time Sit and Go player.
"I was working as a loan officer and would play at the end of my day," he said.
Eventually, Hassan discovered he could make more money playing on PokerStars full-time. So, he went pro and hasn't looked back.
He also happens to be from Michigan. Oh, and he also happens to be a lifelong Detroit Pistons fan.
So, when some great tickets to Game 3 of the NBA finals showed up at PokerStars, it seemed like a great idea to hand them over to a valuable and frequent player like Hassan.
In short, you never know how far a little player loyalty can go.
Hope you have fun, Hassan.
What good are Frequent Player Points?
