Earning FPP Credits

1. Earning FPP credits in cash games In order to earn Frequent Player Point (FPP) the rake in the hand must reach:

  • $0.40 in fixed limit games where stakes are $1/$2 and lower
  • $0.40 in NL/PL games where stakes are $1/$2 and lower
  • $0.40 in the “1-on-1″ games where the table is designated for only two players
  • $1.00 in all other poker games

You will earn a second FPP for playing in a hand where the rake reaches:

  • $2.00 in 6-max tables where only six players are allowed at the table
  • $3.00 in any other tables

A third FPP will be awarder when the rake reaches $5.00 at a table. 2. Earning FPP credits for playing tournament For every $1 paid in tournament fees a player will earn 5 FPP credits If for example you enter a tournament with a $30 buy-in and a $3 tournament fee you will recieve 15 FPP credits. For tournament fees that are not exactly $1 the amount of points will be rounded to the nearest whole number. For example if there is a tournament fee of %.50 the players will be awarded 3 FPP credits instead of 2.5 FPP credits.

Spending FPP Credits

FPP credits are as good as real money and can be used in two different ways. 1. The first way you can use your FPP points is to purchase a seat in any number of tournaments offered on Poker Stars. You can enter cash, sit & go’s, or even big satellite tournaments. To enter these tournaments simply go to the tournament lobby and search through the freerolls. There you will find a variety of tournaments that you can buy into with your FPP credits. 2. The second way you can use your FPP credits is to purchase brand new poker gear. All you have to do is go to the Poker Stars merchandise page and there you will find a bunch of great items you can buy with your FPP credits.
