An exclusive 150% WSOP Poker bonus of up to £500 is being offered to players making their initial deposit with the World Series of Poker online poker room. This is the maximum WSOP Poker bonus available, and may only be activated by entering the WSOP Poker promotion code when players fund their online poker account for the very first time.

To release the World Series of Poker bonus, players will be required to accumulate 10 Bonus Points (Bonus Points), for each $1 of the total bonus amount. Bonus Points are earned for participation in WSOP Poker's real money cash games, tournaments, and casino games. WSOP Poker issues 2 Bonus Points to players with a pending bonus for every $1 contributed to rake or tournament entry fees. Casino games will earn players 1 Bonus Point for every $16 wagered from their poker account.

Players will have 30 days in which to meet the WSOP Poker bonus requirements. Players who acquire the necessary Bonus Points within the time allotted will receive the World Series of Poker bonus in full at the end of the bonus earning period. A bonus meter above the WSOP Poker tables shows players how close they are to earning their pending bonus.

Players who successfully release the WSOP Poker bonus will be able to use the bonus cash for wagering at WSOP poker and casino games. However, the WSOP Poker bonus may not be cashed out until the player has wagered 10 times the amount of the bonus total.

An amateur poker player decides to open an account at the World Series of Poker online poker room, and deposit $100 into his poker account. Entering into the World Series of Poker promotion code field during deposit, he is granted a pending WSOP Poker bonus matching 150% of his first deposit.

An STT specialist, the player starts out at the $2+$0.20 Sit and Gos, earning .4 Bonus Points and .4 Status Points for each single table tournament he enters. After cashing in several $2.20 SNGs, he moves on to the $5+$0.50 Sit and Gos, accumulating 1 Bonus Point for every tournament entry. He continues in this fashion, moving up to larger buy-ins and prizes as his bankroll increases.

If the player manages to acquire 10 Bonus Points for every $1 of his total pending WSOP Poker bonus within 30 days, WSOP Poker will transfer the entire amount of the bonus into his poker account. The free bonus cash may then be used to play poker and casino games until he has wagered ten times the amount of the bonus; at which point he is free to withdraw the World Series of Poker bonus money.
