people you gotta admire the legend working at pokerstars who has this marketing idea for the first few days of christmass its epic when you think about it lets break it down. people where hating on ps not giving any money away so lets see what ps did here
day 1: milestone hands people deposit to hope to make the milestone hand thus rake for ps
day 2 : a 5$ to 25000(correct me if i'm wrong ) on a 25$ deposit thus rake thus money for ps
day 3: missed this one
day 4: BOOM patience pays of ps thorws the money in the air like they just don' t care... because they don't they don' t really care anyway 1000 x 48 is stil 48000 they give away for nothing
in other words ps i gotta say that are some serious marketing skills

So. While I am still not convinced about the way a number of poker sites (and a whole wider world of companies) are running their Christmas calendars, ( you click the days window and everyone gets the same offering) I have to say that here at BankRollMob, the Christmas calendar continues to be the grearptest offering there is out there. You get five clicks every day, you have no idea whether you will win or which one of the range of fantastic prizes you could win and then at the end of it all if you have shown commitment and dedication, you get entry into a freeroll.
Long live the glory of the BRM Christmas Calendar!
well i just got thrown out of the first pretty quick in the second one now with 4500 remaing out of almost 16000 people current position 290 doesnt say anything yet but could be doing worse

I completly agree with most here, pokerstars promotion is terrible for now.
These 1000$ freerolls are a joke, with like 14789498 players in it. They should atleast make it an interesting prizepool because the actual value of these tournaments is next to 0.
The only one of the bonuses I thought of using was the deposit bonus because a friend needed money on stars but I was able to transfer it to him by playing a home game and winning it

so far so... epically bad. 4th day, plenty of cash... well... wasted on those 1k freerolls- you have to spend half of working day to earn yourself a dollaro, which then you have to spend on food, since you worked your socks off in the first place by putting in the extra shift... me no approve stars promos so far

Yeah, but you have to think, altough BankrollMob offers are the greatest, PS Xmas offers still sounds really interesting...the rest, yeah, are no so really "charming"...
