Like last year, this promotion is open to certain players only; those invited to participate will have been informed via email or through the client.
The system piggybacks on the existing rewards program: Players fill up a progress bar through play at the tables to unlock a chest with a random reward. In addition to their usual Stars Rewards chest, once daily the player will also a receive a special Calendar Chest.
