TOP 250 March: Results Are In!
This March we had two events for our top players - the Top 250 and the Jackpot promotion. The International Jackpot promotion has a prize pool of $6,800 and three lucky winners will get to split it.
The final standings for the month of March are here and now we have the details for both the Top 250 and the Top 10 Jackpot promotions.
Regarding the Jackpot promotion, it has taken place between the 1st and the 31st of March 2009, when our English community members had the opportunity to show their skills and be rewarded with up to $500.
The ten PokerStrategists who have accumulated the most StrategyPoints by the end of that period got their share of $1,750.
Just as we previously mentioned, in case one of our community member belongs to both the best 250 players of the TOP250 promotion and the Top Ten Jackpot, he will receive the higher prize of the two. The lower prize will go into our international jackpot.
The top 5 of our English community members have managed to end in the overall Top 250, meaning that they won two prizes, one of which went to the Jackpot.
Here is the prize distribution for our community in March:

promotions or not.
Members who collected at least 3,000 StrategyPoints
will get one lottery ticket each and members who collected at least 7,500
StrategyPoints will get two lottery tickets each.
This means that you will
simultaneously reach the Platinum or Diamond status respectively.
Three of the lottery ticket holders will get their share of the
jackpot: 50% will go to number 1, 30% to number 2 and the remaining 20%
to number 3. The results for this lottery will be announced shortly.
