The New Year’s celebrations are behind us, but the festivities are not over at GGPoker, as the operator ushers in the Year of the Dragon with a massive $15 Million promotion.
Running from January 26 to February 29, the giveaway will have the Lunar New Year, which falls on February 10, in its center as GGPoker gives away millions of dollars to its most loyal customers and brand new players alike.
The Lunar New Year Giveaway starts just day after the previous Winter Giveaway ended on January 15, with $23 million given away in promotional prizes.

A Million Dollars for Brand New Players
While it is hard to quantify exactly how much money new players at GGPoker will receive during the Lunar New Year Giveaway, the number should quite easily go north of one million dollars.

What’s more, all new GGPoker players will be eligible for the Honeymoon promotion, which puts special missions before the players during their first month with the operator and offers up to $300 in prizes to those who successfully complete them.
To top it all off, all new players are also eligible for a first depositor’s bonus, worth up to $600 in cash increments or $100 in instant cash and free tickets.
Combined, these promotions will add up to over $1,000,000 in giveaways between January 26 and February 29, and all of them are likely to continue throughout the year.

Finally, to celebrate the coming of the Year of the Dragon, GGPoker will give away a further $3,000,000 via cash drops at a variety of game formats on the platform.
Playing at Hold’em, PLO, Rush & Cash, Short Deck, All-In or Fold, and APL tables will give you access to cash drops and a chance to randomly receive red envelopes with up to C$288,888 in them each and every day.
To participate in this part of the giveaway, all you need is follow these simple steps:

It really is as simple as that, as the $3,000,000 in rewards will be given away randomly throughout the promotion to active players across most GGPoker formats.
Join Today and Become a Killer Whale
While the Lunar New Year Giveaway in itself is an extremely appealing promotional period, there are extra reasons to sign up and play at GGPoker in the coming period.
The operator recently announced the launch of a new Killer Whale rank in its Fish Buffet player rewards scheme, which awards a flat rate of 50% rakeback for a period of 100 days to any player who wants it.
