Starting tomorrow, February 1^st and running for the entire month, Card Rush at PartyPoker is a promotion that rewards cash game players for playing like they would on any other day. Every time you earn an additional 15 PartyPoints, PartyPoker will give out what is called a Card Rush card. These cards work like a scratch-off lottery ticket and can reveal some great prizes for certain lucky players. The best part of this whole promotion is the fact that every scratch-off ticket that is given out contains some sort of prize. You have the ability to collect up to 50 cards in a 24 hour period and if you do not reach the maximum amount of 50, any and all PartyPoints will carry over to the next day.Your scratch-off ticket can contain prizes ranging from additional PartyPoints, cash, entry into Freerolls, and Card Rush Race Points. Race Points are specific only to this promotion and will determine your place in the Card Rush, whatever player has the most Race Points by the end of the promotion is rewarded with $9,000 from PartyPoker. Positions 1 through 10 will get nice payouts and even players up to 151^st place will receive at least some cash, like $100 for 151^st place to be exact. From positions 220^th all the way up to 2,000^th every 20^th player will be given $50.Entry in to Freerolls that are held March 2^nd, 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th are the only prizes that, if won twice, offer no extra benefit. For example, if I win entry into the $7,500 Card Rush Freeroll being held on March 5^th at 14:30 GMT, I may very well win that same exact prize from another ticket, and if I do, I simply have two entries into the freeroll for my one person. The Card Rush Promotion is supposed to last until the end of February, but with a card limit of 1.8 million, it may go faster than that.
