BLAST is easily one of the most popular game formats on 888poker. Offering fast-paced action, short running times, and, of course, opportunities to win massive prizes with every new game, these jackpot-style sit and gos appeal to players of all shapes, sizes, and bankrolls.
And, for the next week, you can get even more value playing these games, as 888poker is rolling out its BLAST Cashback week, bringing opportunities to claim back up to 50% of all the tournament fees you pay during the promo.
The promotion kicks off today, May 20, and runs through Tuesday, May 26, and you’ll receive up to 50% cashback on all games with buy-ins of up to $50.
Something Extra for Your Efforts
The main appeal of BLAST poker comes from chasing those games with substantial multipliers. Naturally, these don’t come around that often, which means that the best way to achieve this goal is to put in a substantial volume.
With the BLAST Cashback promo active, you have some additional motivation to put in the grind, as you’ll be able to claw back up to 50% of all the tournament fees you pay, capped at $500. If you can get the full value, that’s a nice chunk of cash to look forward to.
The cashback percentage is determined based on the total amount in fees paid during the qualifying period (May 20 — 26), namely:
- $5 – $49 in fees paid — 10% cashback
- $50 – $399 in fees paid — 20% cashback
- $400+ in fees paid — 50% cashback
The math is simple here. The more you play, the better your rewards will be when it’s all said and done. That said, the maximum you can receive is $500, and only the games with buy-ins under $50 count for the promotion.
Once the promo period is over, you’ll receive your reward within 72 hours, and it will be paid in cash, straight to your account balance, without any further restrictions.
It’s Time to Blast Away
Not everyone in poker has the same opinion of BLAST and jackpot sit and gos in general. For some players, these games are their bread and butter. Others enjoy them on occasion, but prefer traditional cash games or MTTs.
Regardless of what side of the fence you are on, it makes sense to play more of these games during this week. Even if you end up breaking even, you’ll have some cash coming your way, and that’s never a bad spot to be in.
Plus, this format didn’t become so popular for nothing. The highest multiplier on offer is 10,000 times the buy-in, and, as rare as it is, it pops up every now and again. There is no telling when it might happen or who might get it.
But the more games you play, the better your chances are.
With these games taking only a few minutes to complete, you can put in a decent volume even if you don’t have that much time to play, especially if you’re comfortable playing three or four tables at the same time.
Why not give it a shot? There is no better time to do it!
