Level Up to Platinum or Diamond Status!

To some players, reaching Platinum or even Diamond status seems impossible. This month, it is anything but as earning just 90 StrategyPoints per day for 20 days will launch you to Platinum status. What's more, Diamond status is easier than ever as well!

A few days ago, we announced our new Level Up promotion which begins on August 1 and makes it easier than ever for you to make that jump to PlatinumPlatinum or even DiamondDiamond status.

Play 20 days in August at any of our poker rooms and you can level up - simply earn the qualifying amount of StrategyPoints on at least 20 days in August on any of our poker rooms and you'll be leveled up!

What's more, if you earn all your StrategyPoints on one of 11 partner poker rooms (see table below) you will also earn a cash reward - if you reach PlatinumPlatinum status you will receive $50; reach DiamondDiamond status and you will receive $100!
