CardHunt
From now until April 2nd, take part in CardHunt a unique option offering players the ability to win up to $3,000 a day. Members of PokerStarsNJ simply need to take part in a new puzzle each day to try and win a cash prize. Every day, a new puzzle board is placed in the Challenge Window and each puzzle will have 16 to 20 pieces. Each piece will represent a playing card from a standard deck. To complete the puzzle, players have to take part in hold’em cash games, which can include Zoom poker. Look for hole cards to match your puzzle pieces. When you win a hand with hole cards that match your puzzle pieces then you collect that piece. Keep playing and complete the puzzle to earn a cash reward which is offered at random, from $1 to $3,000 each day.
