However, the Weekly Stars Rewards are not true freerolls since you need a ticket that can only be earned from the Stars Rewards chests. Each time you open a Stars Rewards chest, you have a 10% chance of winning a ticket to the weekly $5,000 Added PokerStars freeroll, which has an average value of 33¢. Take part in the exclusive $5,000 Weekly PokerStars PokerNews Freeroll Series promotion that will see a $5,000 freeroll take place every week! This is a discussion on Success in the 'Weekly Rewards Stars Freeroll $5,000' within the online poker forums, in the Tournament Poker section; I opened the chests and got a ticket to that game.
PokerNews and PokerStars have joined forces to bring you a superb promotion that will see a $5,000 freeroll take place each and every week from Feb. 8 to Apr. 25 and an additional $7,500 given away to the best performers! That is $67,500 in free cash! Download PokerStars now to participate in this amazing promotion!
Every week between Feb.8 and Apr. 25 players who have downloaded PokerStars through PokerNews will be eligible to participate in a freeroll that has a massive $5,000 prize pool!
Existing players have to earn just 20 VPPs in the seven days prior to the freeroll to be able to take part while new players simply have to make a deposit and register for the freeroll! New customers are reminded that they can help themselves to a 100% match up to $600 first deposit bonus by entering the marketing code 'POKERNEWS.COM' and the bonus code 'STARS600.'

Reward point requirements depend on the Chest type you are playing towards, but are also personalised based on your profile. Some of the factors which impact points requirements are recent activity, game-type and net deposits.
You’ll earn reward points at different rates, depending on your gaming activity:
