Hi there,
As someone who regularly plays poker on Stake and really enjoys it, I’ve noticed that many tournaments struggle to fill up — or sometimes don’t launch at all due to low player numbers.
So I wanted to suggest a promotion concept that could help bring more attention to Stake’s poker offering — particularly from users who usually focus on casino games or sports betting. The goal is to make poker feel more approachable, fun, and rewarding for players who don’t normally try it.
🎯 Concept Overview: Themed Weekly Challenges → Poker Tickets
The basic idea:
Players complete themed challenges in casino or sportsbook, and as a reward, they earn a ticket to a weekly poker tournament with a solid prize pool (e.g. $30,000 — in line with other weekly promos like Level Up ).
The challenges would tie into poker terms or concepts — creating a subtle, fun introduction to the game.
✈️ Example 1 — Slot Challenge: “American Airlines”
Poker’s best starting hand is pocket Aces, often nicknamed “American Airlines” (AA).
So: Win a 300x multiplier on the slot Flight Mode to receive a tournament ticket.
It’s light, clever, and gives slot players a goal that connects directly to a poker reference.
🎾 Example 2 — Sports Challenge: “Anna Kournikova”
In poker, the AK hand is sometimes called “Anna Kournikova” — looks great, doesn’t always win.
Challenge: Win a 3-leg tennis combo bet with a $25 minimum stake to get a tournament ticket.
The goal here is to play off real poker lingo in a way that’s funny and accessible — something that gets non-poker players curious.
💰 Prize Format & Ticket Utility
To keep the rewards poker-focused, tickets could be for:
A fixed weekly multi-table tournament with a strong guaranteed prize pool
(Optionally) Prizes paid out in T$ (Tournament Dollars) — usable only in poker
That way, winnings stay in the poker ecosystem
Players who cash once are incentivized to play again
🏆 Bonus Suggestion: Poker Leaderboard
Another angle: add a weekly leaderboard for poker grinders.
Players earn points based on volume or tournament finishes. Top 10–20 players win extra rewards (vault bonuses, tickets, badges, etc.). It would reward regular play and help fill underpopulated events.
