Jamie Gold Gets Aced

Aced Poker signs Jamie Gold as their celebrity player and "poker ambassador"!

2006 World Series of Poker champion, Jamie Gold has signed a reported 8 figure contract with Aced Poker. This contract is reportedly the most lucrative ever offered in the industry. Gold's attorney Les Abell had this to say; "I am not at liberty to disclose details of the arrangement. However, I can say that this contract is valued at more than any deal I've ever heard of."

Not bad for a poker room that has only been open since last September! According to Aced poker room manager Brandon Berndt, "We are extremely excited to have Jamie on board, not only because of his obvious value as an ambassador for us within the poker world, but for the unparalleled enthusiasm, insight, and creativity he brings to the ongoing development of our brand. He could have chosen so many other sites, but we share his values and vision. He is worth every penny -- or billion pennies."



Aced Poker will sponsor Gold in major land based tournaments around the world.
Jamie Gold stated; "I'm really proud of the example we, as a poker community, are setting. Professional poker players, celebrities, athletes, and captains of industry have worked tirelessly and participated honorably in support of charitable gaming events to impact important world causes. I've been fortunate enough to be able to give back, But it's only the tip of the iceberg. Aced and I plan to leave our mark, not just on poker, but on the world, making it a better place for future generations."

Since Jamies unprecedented $12,000,000 WSOP win he has used his celebrity status and cash to help raise more than $110,000,000 for charity.

Jamie Gold captures the bracelet and a cool $12 million by winning the 2006 World Series of Poker Championship.


Play Poker, Get Aced!




ESPN called it one of the most 'dominant performances in sports history,' with Jamie Gold leading the field of 8,722 other poker players for days during the 2006 World Series of Poker. Gold won $12 million, the largest cash prize of any sporting event in history.

PokerStars 25 Billion Bash

PokerStars is having a 25 Billion Bash, and everyone is invited to join the celebration! Just over 18 months after our 10 Billionth Hand was dealt, we are now on the verge of dealing our landmark 25 Billionth Hand, and we’re not going to let such an occasion go unmarked. We’re going to be celebrating in the only way we know how - by having a bash, full of promotions that will give away some huge prizes!

‘The 25 Billion Bash’ Promotions

	First Depositor Freerolls
	Cash prizes for milestone hands
	The 25 Billionth Mega Milestone
	Sunday Warm Up & Sunday Million guarantees increased

First Depositor Freerolls
For players who have never played for real money, we don’t want you to miss out on the celebration. We’re giving all our players who make their first-ever real-money deposit between February 11-22 the chance to win big in a series of exclusive freerolls. All you need to do is make your first deposit using the code fdf2500, and you will receive a ticket to play in as many of our February First Depositor Freerolls as you want, plus you’ll also receive our 100% up to $50 first deposit bonus (conditions apply). There will be three freerolls per day from February 15-22, and each one will have a $2,500 prize pool, giving you the chance to win some serious cash for FREE!

Cash prizes for milestone hands
As we approach the 25 Billionth Hand, you’re going to want to be playing at our cash ring game tables to try to win our milestone hand prizes. Starting from hand 24,850,000,000, we’re going to be giving away cash prizes for every millionth hand dealt until we hit number 25 billion, a total of 150 milestone hands*. The winner of each milestone hand will receive a cash prize on top of the pot they have already won, while the rest of the table will also be awarded a cash prize for just being dealt in to the hand. The following prizes will be awarded depending on the table stakes as displayed in the PokerStars lobby:

Limit	Winner	The rest
Micro	$300	$125
Low	$750	$250
Medium	$1,250	$500
High	$2,500	$1,000

We've got even better news for you if you’re a VIP Club member. If you're SilverStar VIP or above at the time you are dealt into any of the milestone hands, whatever cash prize you win will be multiplied according to your current VIP status. So the higher your VIP level, the more you'll win! See the table below for multiplier details:

VIP Tier	Milestone Hands Bonus
SilverStar	15% Bonus
GoldStar	30% Bonus
PlatinumStar	60% Bonus
Supernova	120% Bonus
Supernova Elite	200% Bonus

For example, you can turn a $1,250 prize into $1,625, just for being a GoldStar VIP.

The 25 Billionth Mega Milestone Hand
With the focus of the 25 Billion Bash being on the 25 Billionth Hand we deal, it is only right that we award the biggest prizes of all to the players who participate in this historic hand. The winner of the 25 Billionth Hand will be awarded a staggering $100,000 cash prize, as well as ALL of the following; an EPT Monte Carlo package, a PokerStars Caribbean Adventure package, a World Series main event package and a WCOOP Main Event ticket. All in all, the winner of the 25 Billionth Hand dealt on PokerStars will claim a prize worth more than $150,000!

While the winner of the hand will receive the main prize, we’re also going to be awarding cash prizes to the rest of the players who are dealt into the Mega Milestone Hand. $100,000 in cash will be shared equally by all players who are dealt into the 25 Billionth Hand! (Players must be dealt into a milestone hand to be eligible for prizes. Players sitting out during a milestone hand are not eligible.) This means that in total the 25 Billionth Hand will be worth a combined $250,000 in cash and prizes! (Please note: Prizes awarded to those dealt into the 25 Billionth Hand are not subject to VIP Multipliers as per the regular milestone hands outlined above.)

Sunday Warm Up & Sunday Million guarantees ramped up
We recognize that only a few lucky players will have shot at taking the main prize from the 25 Billion Bash, but there are still plenty of other ways you can benefit. On February 15, the Sunday Majors will have their guaranteed prize pools significantly increased. The Sunday Warm-Up at 12:45 ET will have its guarantee boosted to $1.25 million. This will be followed up by the Sunday Million at 16:30 ET, where players will battle for a guaranteed prize pool worth $2.5 million. Both tournaments can be found under the Tourney > Special tab in your PokerStars lobby and have a direct buy-in of $215. You can also win your way into these events for as little as a few dollars, in our regular satellites all week long.
