Or get on your marks in our Daily Rake Race, with the top prize going to the player with most gold medals. And for all STT players, our Sit N Go For Gold event will reward consecutive victories with special prizes. Our Grand Final then takes place on August 30th, with all top Poker Olympics players receiving an invite.

The freeroll takes place at 20:00 (UK) on Friday 29th August and qualifiers will battle it out for one Caribbean Cruise package and five runner-up prizes of $200. And to make it even more interesting, there will be a special bonus payment of $1,000 to the player who wins the most Sit N Go events in a row between August 8th and 24th. In the event of a tie, the bonus payment will be split among all winning accounts.
