Whilst we may offer our own rake races to Power Poker rakeback players the good people over at Power Poker also two rake races of their own this month with one specifically for Omaha players and one for Hold’em players as well. Whether you prefer the action of Omaha or the tactics of Hold’em these two great rake races are both $10,000 and run throughout October.

Power Poker’s $10,000 No Limit Hold’em Rake Race has a total prize pool of $10,000 and with 40 players paid and a $2,000 first prize it is a great structure for regular players and with a rakeback deal it is even better as you will be earning 33% rakeback on all that rake you will be paying. All you have to do is play poker and play lots of it. The more you play the more FPPs you will earn and the higher up the leaderboard you will go. Power Poker have leaderboards which show you how close you are to the money.

If you prefer the excitement of Omaha then there is a similar rake race for you as well with $10,000 up for grabs again and the same prize structure with 40 places paid and first place bringing home $2,000.

We are also running a $20,000 rake race for our Power Poker rakeback players so if you want to get involved in rake races at Power Poker it makes sense to sign up through us and you get access to our monthly promotions as well as Power Poker’s and of course you also get the benefit of 33% rakeback.

Whilst No Limit Hold’em may have been the game that grabbed the attention of the world and made poker the mainstream sport that it is, Omaha has been taking over recently and is the fastest growing form of poker. At Power Poker this month we are paying homage to this great game and offering a $20,000 rake race with double prizes for all our rakeback players.

It may have been a while ago that we told you how you could win your way to the Power Poker World Cup held in Helsinki by Ilari Sahamies but it has now happened and Power Poker have provided some great coverage which we can share with you including a great video of the event.

The five winners turned up in Helsinki, Finland on the third Friday in august and enjoyed the day relaxing in style at the 5 Star spa hotel before they would start the weekend’s festivities. Saturday was a relaxing day but the evening was a different kettle of fish altogether. First there was the small matter of the World Cup itself which was held on a Finnish ship and was won by another Finn Mikka Makkonen who took down the $1,300 for first place and a further $500 for knocking out Ziigmund.

From here it was party time as the players when to two of the best clubs in Helsinki looked after by Ziigmund himself with free drinks and some real VIP treatment. Sunday was definitely a time to recover from the night before at the spa before Ziigmund turned up and took the players to the Helsinki Grand Casino for some more poker action. The weekend had to end and on Monday the players were chauffeured back to the airport to fly home.

The team at Power Poker have put together this video showing what went on:

If you want to play at Power Poker and would like to earn 33% rakeback then check out our sign up page. If you’re asking “What is Rakeback?” then check out the link and it will explain everything.

Finnish poker sensation and Power Poker player Ilari “Ziigmund” Sahamies has been a great time on the cash tables recently following a disastrous August when he couldn’t put a winning session together. His luck has changed though and he is getting close to clawing back his losses from the month of August which is great news for fans of the Power Poker star.

Sahamies took Cole South and Brian Hastings for $750,000 over just one session managing to smash Cole for $602k whilst Hastings performed slightly better only losing $187k over six hundred hands. Sahamies and South have had two major run ins this last week and each time the Finn has walked away the much, much happier.

Sahamies has been recovering from a horrendous August when his only profits probably came from rakeback and is close to coming back to even following his million dollar month whilst South has erased all of his year’s profits and is now down $800k for the year.

Elsewhere Tom Dwan has finally had a good weekend picking up over three hundred thousand dollars as he works his way back to form. Phil Ivey took a break from WSOPE events to pocket a small win  and even Gus Hansen and Patrik Antonius were able to score some positive cashes.

At the WSOPE Jeff Lisandro, Phil Laak and UK pro Scott Shelley have picked up the first three bracelets whilst the 10k heads up tournament has attracted all the biggest players from around the world in anticipation of the main Event.
