Our special rake race on Betfred has a total prize pool of $20,000 and it will only run in January. The race at the moment is very soft and you can get a share of the money quite easily, so hurry up and join the race!
In January, besides our Top 250 and 8 rake races, we are hosting a special, one-month race on Betfred, where $20,000 are at stake.
If you can finish in the top 100 players, then you are guaranteed to get a share of the prize pool. The first place finisher will win a cool $2,000 for his efforts.

That's right - for a little over 100 StrategyPoints you can grab a share of the $20,000 prize pool. If you don't have an account yet, you can still take part in the race.
Looking for more rake races?
Also, if you are looking for more "soft" races, why not try the Ladbrokes rake race? Its prize pool for January has been increased up to $8,000 and it will be split amongst the top 40 finishers. The #1 spot will be rewarded with $1,000 at the end of the month.According to the standings so far, you can get in the first place with just 5,000 StrategyPoints. If you want to finish in the money, you should know that the 40th place only has 20 StrategyPoints!

Yup, this is great rake extra prize. but... this poker room client is so bad, why can't use mouse wheel, preferred seating feature none? play so difficult, stressful.#3

Hi narucy,like all other iPoker skins, also Betfred are in means of improving their software including some features that make playing or multitabling more pleasant and easier.
Even if not ready yet, it might be worth it to invest some time (and patience) into the pokerroom for the next 2 weeks until the race is over.
Being a diamond as you are, it shouldn't be too difficult to get into the top rankings ;)
