Posh Poker Productions

Dear Posh Poker Players,

LET’S CONTINUE TO PLAY POKER!

During this time of Social Distancing, and our inability for our poker family to get together for our regular games, we would like to offer you a way to continue to play poker and connect with our poker friends.  Starting immediately we will be hosting online poker games using PokerStars until we can return to live play. These games will be held at the same time as our regular poker games.

For participating in online posh games we will award players an extra chip up at a live game the first week we are back, as well as awarding 50 points for a first place finish, and 25 points for a second place finish.  These points will be applied to the new season that starts when we return. (These will not apply to the current season points which are already set).

ONLINE SOFTWARE

Note that home games are only supported on desktop (PC/MAC) and not yet supported on mobile devices (Though this is coming in the near future).

The PokerStars software can be downloaded at:

• https://www.pokerstars.bet/

GETTING FREE CHIPS

Every four hours you are able to receive 15,000 in free play chips.  You will also be awarded a bonus the first time you sign in. While you can purchase additional free chips, it should not be necessary if you log in and claim your free chips on a regular basis. “Buy in” to these free tournaments is 20,000 free play chips (the minimum possible).
