New series of weekly tourneys could see you on the way to international poker competitions

"Passport Stamps" is the name of Betfair Poker's new game in weekly satellite tournaments starting from $5.50 and offering the opportunity to win buy-ins for leading global poker competitions.

The popular online poker site is offering its customers the opportunity to win “Passport Stamps” which can be used to buy into any live poker event in the world. The unique Betfair Poker Passport Stamps are worth $3 000 each, providing unrivalled flexibility and choice. Players can either use the stamp to buy into local tournaments, which would normally be too expensive for the average player, or accumulate stamps in order to challenge for higher buy-in events such as the World Series of Poker.

Players can choose how to spend the value of the Passport Stamp. The full sum can be spent on the buy-in or the costs of flights and/or accommodation can be included.

“This satellite structure puts our customers in the driving seat,” said Betfair’s Head of Poker Ben Fried.  “The Passport Stamps, combined with the Threedom Pass, give our live event the best value and flexibility in the industry.”

Hans Vogl, who made the final table at both the Betfair Asian Poker Tour and the Aussie Millions, is one of the exclusive Threedom Pass club. “With the Threedom Pass and the Poker Passport I don’t know why anyone would want to qualify anywhere else," he said. “You can pick and choose your events and if you do well Betfair will sponsor you for three years.”

The Threedom Pass offers free buy-in for three years to an event for any Betfair Poker player making the final table of that event. The pass is transferable to comparable tournaments.

The weekly Passport Stamp satellite final takes place on Sundays at 21h45 GMT. The buy-in is $150+$15. Satellites start at $5.50.  At least one Betfair Poker Passport Stamp is guaranteed every week, and each Passport Stamp is valid for 18 months.

A spokesman confirmed that Betfair Poker will continue to offer its traditional satellites to tournaments worldwide.
