How many player played this tourneys? There are nice prizes and the point buyin are nice for only 20 pp, but not when over 5.000 players or more are involved. Then the chanc eis to low to win a good prize.

Wow, Party Poker opened their pockets and started throwing money and iPads away to anyone who wants to grab them. And, as the last sentence says, some buy-ins look really low. These fields must be really crowded, which means that, in order to reach the minimum requirements to get on of these prizes, one must play at least 20 hours (I am saying this imagining about four hours per game till the final table in five Pokerfest II tournaments, which would pay $7,500 + iPad). Guess I just got myself a 48 hour program for next weekend.

Thats a good promotion that will keep a lot of players busy for the time its up. Not an easy task though to finish at the places required to get the mulah and the ipads. You need definitely a touch from lady luck. gl to all participating on this.

well this is gonna cost a lot to pp- probably they think this promo will help to lure back some of the lost customers, or even attract new ones- but to be fair, the players will come for the pokerfest, and leave when it's done...money being given away left and right is the only thing that keeps pp alive atm
