Nowadays there are so many poker sites on the market that new poker players have great promotion options to choose from. Many do not realize that players who do not want to change sites still have great promotion options without having to register new accounts.

First, let’s see the options for new players. If you start playing poker, your main consideration should be the rakeback when registering your new account. Even if you are losing, rakeback can turn everything upside down and change you into a winning player. It can be such a high revenue source that you should not underestimate it. You will get it forever from the site you register at. When you see that one site gives 30% rakeback while the other 33% you might think the difference is small. That is a false assumption. In the long run this 3% has a very significant meaning. So when you see on the sites that you can choose between a couple of hundred dollars sign-up bonus and lifetime rakeback offer, do not think much about it. Rakeback is definitely the right choice.

The second group of promotion options applies to players with an existing account and also to new players. One is the rake races offered by several sites. This can also be a main revenue source if you play a lot. The different sites offer very different rake races. The top spots are worth thousands of dollars in cash each month. If you play many hours a day this extra source of revenue is for you! If you do not play much or you play on very small stakes then you do not have to consider this option. 

Reload bonus is the most common way of promotions. Almost every (if not every) site sends emails on a regular basis about their reload bonuses. This is an option you have to take an advantage. It does not matter if you are a new or veteran player. Most of the times these 50% reload bonuses are a great chance to make some extra cash. There is only one fact you have to pay attention to: on certain sites you cannot make withdrawals until you have used all of your reload bonus. If you still make a withdrawal you lose the rest of your bonus. For this reason the best you can do is to always make withdrawals when you have money on your poker account that you do not need. When you get your email you can make a deposit right away and you do not have to make a withdrawal until you take advantage of your full bonus.

There are various other promotion options which are unique site by site. These include poker shops where you can buy different products, tournament tickets etc. Loyalty levels are also common promotion tools. Based on the amount of rake you made last month, you can take a seat on special freeroll tournaments where you do not have to pay an entry fee.

I hope the tips above helped you with the main issues you have to consider when you register your new poker account. To get the list of poker sites with rakeback and other promotions do not hesitate to ask us or simply check the best rakeback options.
