Absolute Poker VIP Club

The Absolute Poker VIP Club is a rewards system that Absolute Poker uses to keep its current players happy. The VIP Club at Absolute Poker is actually called the FAME Club and you can read all about it in the FAME Club page. If you don’t feel like moving your finger to click the mouse, you are one lazy son of a gun, but I’ll go ahead and explain it here as well.

The short and simple of the Absolute Poker VIP Club is that the more you play poker at AbsolutePoker.com, the more benefits you get. For every hand you play in cash games and every tournament you play, you earn both “AbsolutePoints” and Status Points.

Absolute Poker VIP Club Points

AbsolutePoints are the currency of the Absolute Poker VIP Club. These are the points that you can redeem in the Absolute Store for things like cash bonuses, poker merchandise and consumer electronics.

Status Points are the points that are used to determine your level in the Absolute Poker VIP Club. The more Status Points you earn, the higher up you go in the VIP Club. There are five levels, each one with better benefits than the last level. All players start out at the bottom level and then move up according to the following chart:

• Bronze – 0 Points per month
• Silver – 50 Points per month
• Gold – 500 Points per month
• Platinum – 2,500 Points per month
• Diamond Elite – 10,000 Points per month

When you start out as a Bronze member, you get all the basic benefits that all players get. You’ll receive 24/7 customer support, custom table skins and frequent reload bonuses. As you move up in levels, the benefits get better and better. Diamond Elite players get 5% interest paid on their poker account balances, entrance to exclusive tournaments and VIP treatment at live poker tournaments.

The Absolute Store is where you go when you’re ready to spend your AbsolutePoints. Instead of spending cash at this store, all you do is redeem your points. Similar rewards programs have a bunch of cheesy items that you can exchange your loyalty points for but the Absolute Store is a totally different story.

For example, some of the things you can purchase at the Absolute Store include:

• 63” Plasma TV
• Digital Cameras
• GPS Devices
• Laptop Computers
• XBOX 360 / PS3 Games
• Luxury Watches
• Earrings
• Necklaces
• High End Cologne
• Movie Projectors
• Tickets to the NBA, NFL, MLB, PGA, UFC and NHL
• Concert tickets, tickets to Cirque Du Soleil

These gifts are just the tip of the iceberg, too. There are many more things for you to choose from at the Absolute Store. If you play poker on a regular basis, you’ll love the Absolute Store. It might not sound that exciting right now but when you make your first big purchase and it doesn’t cost a thing, you’ll love it – especially when you get your special delivery.

Absolute Poker Cash for Points

If for some reason you don’t like anything at the Absolute Store (you picky bastard), you can also just exchange your points for cash. Depending on what level you are in the VIP Club, you can exchange your points for up to $1,000 cash every month:

• Gold – up to $50 per month
• Platinum VIP – up to $250 per month
• Diamond Elite – up to $1,000 per month

Your AbsolutePoints convert to cash at a rate of $0.007 per point. In other words, it costs about 142 AbsolutePoints per dollar. That might sound like a lot but AbsolutePoints are easy to earn. Plus, it’s free cash that you earned by doing something you enjoy doing anyways: playing poker.

Participating in the VIP Club

It’s easy to participate in the AbsolutePoker.com VIP Club. All you have to do is join Absolute Poker and play real money poker. You’ll automatically begin as a Bronze member. As you play poker in real money games, points will be awarded to your account and your level in the FAME Club will move up as you play poker.
