The Party Poker Snowball

Wednesday 1st September marks the start of ‘The Snowball’ promotion at PartyPoker.com and customers can win up to 15 prizes and keep every single one of them! This is a promotion with hundreds of thousands of dollars up for grabs. Each player can win up to $5,000 in cash and freeroll entries worth a total of $100,000, giving players the chance to pick up a huge amount of prizes as the Snowball gathers momentum.
