International-focused TigerGaming, under Chico Poker Network for one, is buzzing with promotions this Spring season as it gives back $60,000 in cash prizes spread out across a variety of poker leaderboards: No Limit Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha, and Sit & Go’s.

The classic NLH Daily Cash Game Leaderboard offers its player base a share of the generous $1,000 prize pool split amongst the top 50 ranking players based on their total accumulated points. For PLO enthusiasts on the other hand, a $500 Daily Cash Game Leaderboard will run in similar fashion, awarding the top 25 players each day. A daily High Hand leaderboard allows all players of varying stakes to compete in an equal level field and cash in on the site’s generous prizes whether you’re playing micro stakes or high level poker. Shown below is how each player can rack up points based on their High Hand.

Online poker giant PokerStars is testing its regional waters with novel concepts unlike any other promotions hosted before. PokerStars Italy most recently saw a new concept, Monday Jackpot go live on site where added prizes are given away every 15 minutes for the first two hours from the tournament start. Not all participants however, will necessarily get a chance to claim the €10 Casino Bonus with only 8 tables at a time randomly selected to join the jackpot feature. In addition to the Monday event, its prize pool is promised to continuously increase month by month so long as the guarantee is hit each time.

Interestingly, PokerStars India also implemented the unique On-Time Rake Refund promotion which is generally similar to the more popularly known Early Bird Promo. The new feature encourages players to register in the games prior to the scheduled start in order to receive a refund for the initially collected tournament fee. While not all events are eligible for this promotion, regulars who utilize this bonus will definitely see added value to their bankrolls and overall grind.
