I already read at pokerstars site how it works but the true is I did not understand.
Could you explain it in easy way?

Hi RuiVieira78,
I sure can 
I moved this thread to the PokerStars forum, since it is a question about that room.
I spent a fair bit of time analysing this promotion over the past month or so, and it has changed twice since I started.
The current rules and conditions will last all summer though.
Read through the thread " https://forums.pokerstrategy.com/forum/thread.php?postid=3397515#post3397515 "
If you have any questions, post them either in this thread or that one.
First of all — it is all luck.
Your score in each hand is just made by adding the card values together:
so 3♣:2♦: is just worth 5 points.
Aces are 14 points, Kings 13 and so on down.
Pocket pairs have a 4x multiplier, so 88 is 16 x 4 = 64 points.
AA is special — is is 125 points instead of 112
Suited connectors have a 2x multiplier.
so 8♣:7♦: is worth only 15 but 8♣:7♣: is worth 30.
The average of all possible hole card combos is 19.8
Your point count over 200 hands are totalled — whoever has the highest total at 04:00 GMT wins.
The best I've done is 5th place for $40.
You need to be somewhat above average to cash.
Currently, the person in 300th place has a score of 4062 which is at the 78th percentile.
(average is 3892)
The promo is worthwhile playing in my opinion.
it has nothing to do what kind of hand we made in flop right?
Just the hole cards we get thats it?

Exactly.
You do not even need to play them.
If you fold TT to a 3Bet, you still get the full 80 points.
