$50,000 SNG Race Returns to Chico Network!
With St. Patrick’s Day this month Chico Network is hoping to bring some of the luck and riches of the Irish to its players. They are bringing big and lucrative promotions to sit-n-gos, cash games and tournaments with added money all month long!
Chico Network Wants to Give You the Luck of the Irish!
Chico Poker Network, which is home to Betonline.ag, is currently the 4th largest network serving US players and has been growing at a steady rate for the last 6+ months. They are hoping to push that trend even further by offering players some great promotions for the month of March, all of which are taking on a St. Patrick’s Day feel. The great thing is a lot of players will remember some of these promotions and will remember what great value they provided last time.
$50,000 Sit-n-Go Rake Race is Back!
One of the biggest promotion on Chico Network is back! The $50,000 sit-n-go rake race is back and it’s just as good as ever. The race is a bit different than most as it’s separated into three different tiers based on buy-in amounts of the SNGs and it is broken into two halves, but the halves are not weighted equally. The first half of the month (from March 1st to Match 15th) will pay out 25% of the prize pool for the given leaderboard, while the second half of the month pays the remaining 75% for the given leaderboard.
The leaderboard is split into three different levels depending on the buy-in for the tournament you are playing. Bronze level is SNGs up to $0.99, Silver is SNGs from $1.00 to $9.99 and Gold is SNGs from $10 and up. Players can compete on any and every level of the leaderboard to attempt to win. Also any player who has at least 250 by the midway point will automatically qualify for a $500 freeroll on March 18th, and anyone earning 250 points the second half the month will get into a $1,000 freeroll to be held in the beginning of April. Points are awarded based on a couple of different factors such as finish position, buy-in amount and total registered.
Big Guaranteed Tournaments
Chico Network, which is normally known as a more cash game focused network, is doing a bit to change that moniker with two large guaranteed tournaments this month and a healthy satellite progression system to support it. The first of these tournaments is a $10,000 guaranteed tournament on St. Patrick’s Day itself. This tournament sports a $22 + $2 buy-in and players can win their seat in it for free through a few different freerolls. Players can also progress through the steps system that allows for four different buy-ins to get up the ladder. This means players can easily get into this tournament for very little money on their part.
The crown jewel tournament of the month though is the $25,000 guaranteed tournament on the March 28th at 7pm ET. This tournament will sport a $55 + $5 buy-in and also has steps that can get you into the tournament cheaply. These steps also feature four levels that allow players to get into the tournament for very cheap, possibly even free. There will also be a freeroll that will be awarding different steps tickets to players. We will update you on with that information as it becomes available.
Cash Games and Deposit Bonus Information
Chico Network appears to be running a 100% (minimum $50) deposit bonus. Considering that this is less than their normal initial deposit bonus (and also doesn’t include the language “first” or “initial”), it’s a safe assumption that this likely is for players redepositing on the site. Players can deposit from March 26th until March 28th at 7 PM ET and email the bonus code “STPATTY” to the Betonline.ag support team and they will manually apply the bonus for you. While it does run right until the big Pot o’ Gold tournament, there is no requirement that you must play in it.
Another cool promotion for cash games players is if you hit four-of-a-kind from March 8th through March 14th you will be able to receive that standard $40 in cash OR a free entry into the $25,000 guaranteed tournament on March 28th. While cash players don’t like tournament entries as incentives a lot of the time, this could be a pretty good opportunity to take advantage of a soft tournament that will have a lot of satellite winners and a large guarantee, not just some lowly freeroll.
Conclusion
The race is on to see who can be the 2nd-4th largest poker network available to US players. The great thing about this race is that players will only benefit from it and be able to maximize their money by taking advantage of some great promotions. Chico Network is clearly doing that with a great return of a SNG promotion, large guaranteed tournaments and some bones for cash games players as well.
