How AbsolutePoints for Cash Works
When you play in real money games at Absolute Poker, you automatically earn AbsolutePoints. These points go directly to your account and can then be used to purchase items from the rewards store. The rewards store is full of things like flat screen TVs, game consoles, jewelry, tournament tickets and more. It’s actually one of the best points stores I’ve seen at a poker site.
If you don’t want to purchase things from the rewards store, you can instead trade your points in for straight up cash. The amount of cash you can earn each month through this promotion depends on your level in the Absolute Poker FAME Club. There are three different levels that affect the amount of cash you can earn each month:
- Gold Level – Up to $50 per month
- Platinum VIP – Up to $250 per month
- Diamond Elite – Up to $1,000 per month
The minimum amount you can redeem your points for in a single month is $25. As long as you meet that minimum, you can redeem your points for up to as much cash as listed above. Basically, the idea is that the more you play, the more you earn.
Your AbsolutePoints convert at a rate of $0.007 per AbsolutePoint. This sounds slow but AbsolutePoints are earned quickly. Check out the section below for more details on how AbsolutePoints are earned.
Earning AbsolutePoints
AbsolutePoints are earned by playing in real money ring games and tournaments at Absolute Poker. The number of points you earn in real money play depends on the stakes you play and type of game. Here’s the breakdown for each game type:
AbsolutePoints in Ring Games:
The number of points you earn per hand is dependent upon the stakes you play and your level in the FAME Club. At the lowest stakes, you will have to play 15 hands per point earned. That’s just at the lowest stakes, though. As you move up in stakes, you’ll eventually earn 2 points for every hand you play.
At the same time, you also get a points multiplier based on your level in the FAME Club. For every AbsolutePoint you earn in the above manner, it will be multiplied according to the following chart:
- Bronze Status multiplier: x1
- Silver Status multiplier: x2
- Gold Status multiplier: x3
- Platinum VIP Status multiplier: x4
- Diamond Elite Status multiplier: x5
AbsolutePoints in Tournaments:
Earning AbsolutePoints in tournaments is a little simpler. For every $0.30 you pay in tournament fees, you’ll earn 1 AbsolutePoint. If you play in a $30 + $3 tournament, for example, you’ll earn 10 AbsolutePoints (plus your points multiplier). Fractional AbsolutePoints aren’t shown in your account but they are saved and added to your points total the next time you play in a tournament.
