One thing that has become clear about BetRivers Poker is that there is never a shortage of promotions. As soon as one ends, the operator rolls out another one right away.

This time, BetRivers has introduced yet another new offer called Witching Hour. It is essentially a Happy Hour-style promotion that gives players Poker Bonus rewards for playing during specific late-night time slots.

The promotion kicked off on October 6 and runs through November 5. During the nightly hours between 12 am and 3 am ET, players will receive $1 in Poker Bonus for every $5 in rake they generate. Aptly put, “Night Owls Get Rewarded.”

For example, if a player contributes $100 in rake, they will earn $20 in Poker Bonus, equivalent to 20% rakeback. However, this isn’t cash that’s instantly credited. Poker Bonuses need to be cleared before they can be withdrawn. Fortunately, BetRivers has made the process quite simple. In this promotion, every 1 cent in rake clears $5 worth of Poker Bonus, meaning players only need to generate 4 cents in rake to clear $20 in bonuses.

All Poker Bonuses are credited within 96 hours from the day of play.

For fans of the three-handed jackpot sit and gos known as SNG Select on BetRivers Poker, the operator has also extended its SNG Rapid Reload promotion until October 12. Under this offer, players who fail to win a prize can receive free SNG tickets.

To qualify, they must play at least three sit and gos with stakes above $1 in a single day during the promo hours between 3 pm and 6:59 pm ET. If they miss out on a prize (1st place or Glitch) three or more times, BetRivers will credit them with an SNG ticket of the same value.

Players can qualify multiple times per day and can earn up to $10 in SNG tickets daily. No opt-in is required. It is essentially a consolation reward, ensuring players can still benefit even when they don’t win.

As with all its offers, these promotions are open to players in all four states where BetRivers Poker currently operates: Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, and Delaware.

BetRivers Poker Raises Tournament Guarantees Again

Alongside these promotions, BetRivers Poker hasn’t forgotten its tournament players. Despite a few tournaments falling short of guarantees in the recently concluded BetRivers Poker Championship series, the operator has decided to boost guarantees across its daily and Sunday events.

The increases took effect starting October 6. For instance, The Grant ($50 buy-in) saw its guarantee jump from $2,500 to $3,500. The $100 Benjamin rose from $6,000 to $8,000, the $10 Hamilton increased from $1,000 to $1,500, and The Title Fight ($50 buy-in) climbed from $1,500 to $2,000.

The $200 High Roller, held every Tuesday and Thursday, now guarantees $10,000 instead of $8,000.

Sunday’s flagship events have also received a boost. The $100 Sunday Starter increased from $5,000 to $6,000, while its Mini version ($10 buy-in) went from $1,000 to $1,500. The $100 Sunday Main Event now guarantees $15,000, up from $12,500, and the $200 Sunday High Roller offers $14,000, up from $12,500. Lastly, the $50 Sunday Special has been raised from $4,000 to $5,000.

In total, weekly tournament guarantees have increased by $42,500.
