Sunpoker's raked hands and poker points and $100,000 MPP Ice Breaker Tournament

Pokers points and My Poker Points (MPP) = Raked hands.

There has been some confusion with the new poker points system. Starting January 1st, 2006 the amount of raked hands a player accumulates is equal to the amount of My Poker Points (MPP) a player receives. This will help your players in regards to the SunPoker.com bonus clearing. Remember, returning players need just 200 raked hands or (200 MPP) to receive their $40 monthly bonus!

My Poker Points (MPP) = Raked hands$0.25 - $0.99 units in rake = 0.25 raked hands$0.25 - $0.99 units in rake = 0.25 MPP$1 and greater = 1 raked hand$1 and greater = 1 MPP

$100,000 MPP ICE BREAKER TOURNAMENT

The tournament will cost 5,000 MPP's to play.

The date will be March 19th at 13:00 ET (18:00 UK) ... so players will have plenty of time to accumulate MPP's before the tournament.

And don't worry if they do not play enough to accumulate 5,000 MPP's before then ... as we will provide players with Satellites into $100,000 MPP Ice Breaker beginning in mid-February for as low as 200 MPP's.
