Starting this past Monday, September 3, 2012, William Hill Poker is running its September rake race with a $10,000 guaranteed prize pool. But as a VIP Rake Race, it’s only open to the most elite players.

Head to William Hill Poker in September and get a chance at a share of an extra $10,000 in cash with the $10k VIP Rake Race. Running from Monday, September 3rd through Sunday, September 30th, 2012, the William Hill Poker September Rake Race is open exclusively to players who’ve already achieved VIP Level 5 or higher. If you achieve VIP Level 5 during the promotional period, then all VIP points earned from that time onward will apply toward your performance in this promotion.

Performance will be tracked on a Rake Race Leaderboard that you can check at any time at William Hill Poker, and which the site updates every hour.

All cash table games and online tournaments are eligible for points on the leaderboard, with players earning 10 race points every time they generate $1 on a cash table or pay $1 in tournament fees. The promotion is valid on all game types and styles (Omaha, Stud, Hold’em and Fixed, Pot and No Limit).

Players can play in whatever currency suits them based, with points calculated against “dollar value”.

First place in this promotion will get $2,000; second place will get $1,400; and third will get $1,100. The top 50 will get paid out a sum of at least $50.
