PokerPlanets’ December Calendar Is Busy, Loud, and Hard to Ignore
- PokerPlanets' holiday promotion runs from Dec 6 to Jan 13 with countless prizes.
- New Year events focus on participation with chances to win iPhones, AirPods, and more.
- Finalists in the New Year Cup receive a month of 100% rakeback rewards.
PokerPlanets is not easing players gently into the new year. Instead, December comes with overlapping promotions, holiday giveaways, and a noticeable emphasis on rakeback and knockouts rather than fireworks and slogans.
From mid-December through early January, players can pick and choose between giveaways, bounty formats, and multi-day tournaments, or simply stack them all together and see what sticks.
New Year All-In Giveaways: Three Weeks, Three Shots
Running from December 15 to January 5, PokerPlanets’ New Year All-In Giveaways revolve around repeat participation rather than a single lucky moment.
The structure is simple: make a deposit of $50 or more, play, and you’re eligible for prizes. Across the promotion period, PokerPlanets is giving away:
- 9 iPhone 17 Pro
- 15 AirPods Pro 3
- $3,150 in Spin & Win tickets
- Hundreds of additional smaller prizes
The promotion encourages three deposits, three tournaments, and three chances to land something tangible. It’s less “one big raffle” and more “keep showing up and see what happens.”
New Year Cup Super Bounty: Rakeback for the Final Seven
On December 27, PokerPlanets runs a festive edition of its New Year Cup Super Bounty, featuring a $7,500 guaranteed prize pool and a fast Super Bounty structure.
The headline detail is the bonus reserved for the final table. The seven finalists receive 100% rakeback for an entire month, turning a single deep run into a longer-term reward.
It’s one of the few promotions in the lineup that directly links tournament performance to future cash game value.
100% Bountality Sirius: Knockouts With a Cash Twist
The 100% Bountality Sirius series runs from December 6 to January 13, continuing PokerPlanets’ Mortal Kombat-styled bounty format with revised rules.
This time, knockouts translate directly into fixed cash bonuses:
- Knock out 3 players and receive $5
- Knock out 5 or more players and receive $10
The bonuses apply weekly and reward aggression rather than survival, making it one of the more straightforward promotions in the December lineup.
Sunday Comet Cup: A Multi-Day Route to a Guaranteed Finish
The $2,500 GTD Sunday Comet Cup takes a slower approach. Players can enter Day 1 flights throughout the week, with the goal of finishing in the top 10% to secure a guaranteed payout in the Final.
The Final runs on December 21 at 18:30 MSK, turning the event into a staggered, low-pressure way to reach the money without committing to a single long session.
