Poker Stars VIP Tournaments

Ok so I hear a lot of people saying that they forget about these and some actually have some good prize pools, so here is the complete list with the time and days. I only see two stickies in this so possibly that could happen or I could bump it every now and then?

Good call.

it seems the only way moving up in rank could be good is if you are gold or above...that stinks. thanks for the info though.

Thx for the info, somehow I'm a bronze star and for a few fpp's those are nice prize pools

I know right? Like the monthly 20k for only 50fpps, who wouldn't take advantage of that??

This is handy - I stickied it. Stuck it. Sticked it. Whatever lol.

The supernova freerolls are awesome value imo

I always wonder what those meant thanks for that info

the silverstar freerolls usually have around 3k players, the gold ones have less than 1k. the payout structure is also good with almost 1 in 5 getting paid

i always forget these, never played one nor do i know how many points i got, may have to look into it, thanks for the reminder, buck

yea this is definitely a good promotional thing, i myself am only a bronze star haha

Is it worth it for bronze stars also? Any idea how many players are usually in the 20k, and what 1st pays?

No Bronze FR's...

I was wondering what the field size for the bronze ones were as well. Looking at the chart it looks like the highest for Bronze is the weekly 2K.

Still worth it

Thanks for this thread.

you need like 5000 fpp to even start..the best is the sunday million tho

When you are a bronze,silver,gold VIP and have a lot in your bankroll this is for you.

To get promotion faster play open up a lot of ring game table of 0.25/0.50, I'm open up 5 table with a min of 10$, but to claimed your points you need to win your raked hands.
There is also tournament you can earn FPP, if you pay 1$ you earn 1 FPP, I dunno how much you earn while playing raked in tournament.
Silver Status was quite easy to claimed, did it really quick.

you need at least 2000 fpps to play this...this means 2000 DOLLARS!!

Not really you can play ring game too for getting FPP, not only for playing tournament.

Well they quite good in 10FPP, is very cheap.
You higher the ring game you playing even higher FPP you get. I play once in 1/2$ ring-game and earn my silver status very easy

for the tourneys, do we play with everyone from Bronze star to SuperNova Elite? or is it Status specific?

Ok nice table, but i intresting how many Fpp points BronzStar,SilverStar,GoldStar and etc?!

Im a bronze star and Iv won a ticket to the 2k freeroll before but didnt luck out.

Make a deposit - you are automatically Bronze - after that, it takes 1500 pts in a month to make Silver, and even more for the higher levels. The top 2 levels are based on points in the calendar year. Since pts are based on rake, you have to pay a lot of rake to get to the higher levels (whether you win or lose the hand does not matter, but I believe you have to see the flop to earn the points.

Its on PS's site

I have never deposited and am Bronze. It takes 'cash' play of some kind. This is from the VIP details on Star's site:

"The first level in the VIP Club, BronzeStar, is your stepping stone to valuable rewards and benefits. You become a BronzeStar VIP from the moment you play your first qualified real money cash ring game or tournament."

You do not have to be active in a hand to earn points. Even if you fold your hole cards preflop, you earn points if the hand produces at least $.40 in rake. The only way you do not receive point/s in a cash game is if you are sitting out or the rake does not reach 40 cents.
