Hey guys, I got this by email a couple of days ago. It gave me five 1,10$ tickets for multi table tournaments. They expire on november 14 2016 so I have about 2 weeks to play them.
I was wondering if that promo is just for selected players or if it's for everyone? (perhaps as a "sorry" for the DDOS attacks they exprienced this week at stars?)
The code is: rewards
Anyways, free 5,50$ is nice GL guys

Normally it was a promo for new Players in my opinion, perhaps this was a mistake...But nice for you, take the tickets and tr your luck to win some nice extra $$$. Or this was a promo for choosen Players, i haven´t got this Kind of mail.

I have read about the attacks that happened recently in many sites. Didnt know that poker stars was one of them. But it looks from aboe that you are the only one made it work. Probably some personal offer that all sites do from time to time.

Thank you very much for promptly notifying us of Star Code. I will definitely check my PokerStars account at my earliest convenience to see if I am eligible for this promotion. Good luck, guys, at a poker table.

Well, these attacks running in the behind all the times for every major online outlet and they just have to decide they pay for a professional company to re-route their traffic or pay the attackers the ransom money so they will stop.

rare is that poker stars gifts to someone free tickets or free spin, I think there is no need to reward someone because everyone wants to play in the poker stars, I checked my account, there is no prize, I did not expect to get a reward,I signed the code, but there was no free tickets

When you are the leader of the industry, you dont have to lure your customers with special treats all the time. And yet they put new offers. The latest one, is the one with the pin and go, where vig did profit from it

Well, some players (including me) never deposit unless there's a bonus. I feel like these poker sites make enough money so we have to be picky and competition is good for us. Sure PS is by far the biggest room but that doesn't mean we should blindly be loyal to it. They want our money just like any other industry
If you havent deposited in a while, theyll probably send you bonus offers at some point to make you come back.

you're absolutely right, I think we should not play poker somewhere where there are no bonus, when I wanted to withdraw money from poker stars have written to me that if I withdraw the money will not be able to use their bonuses, which bonuses? I did not get anything from Poker Stars

I dont disagree with that machine, but you cant wait for ever for the free offers to come due to inactivity.. And if there are some good offers with a deposit, while not risking it (deposit) you have to take it, dont you? Some times you have to invest to get a return.

I withdrew my money with Poker Stars, a couple of times when I pull money from poker stars they say, do not pull the money you'll lose the right to free tickets, or bonus, I have never received any bonus or free tickets, why they propose a bonus only when I want to withdraw money

vaci38 probably beacuse they want that your money stay in play and they want that you spend this money on tournaments and cash games or to deposit more,so on this way they try to convince people to play more!somebody will listen to them,somebody will say,who cares!but I never get this kind of messages from them,that I will lose bonus offer,if I withdraw money!but I didnt withdraw money for more then year there,so dont know is this something new or happend before!

hhahahha dule-vu this is reason why you did not get this message, you have not made a payment for a long time , I want to say poker stars, he never offered a bonus or free ticket, only when I want to withdraw money then offer something, it makes me terribly upset, why when I log in, then let me write a message, to make a deposit and get bonus
