I've always disliked this promotion because it ends in a tournament that has nothing to do with poker. Nothing depends on you in this tournament. It's even hard to call it a casino. In my opinion, this is GG's worst New Year promotion ever.

In the end, the vast majority of us know what this tournament is, and we still play the days to try and get further up in the ranks....so it is what it is, no one has to try in this promo. I didn't put any extra effort in, I got the days I got cos I played poker those days, and like @Poker Orifice said, he made money during the promo, by playing slightly softer games.....these promos will bring in new players and they do give you a chance to win money.
Unfortunately of course it should favour the players creating more rake at higher stakes, as thats really what this is, along with the GG care and GG cheers, another rake back promo.
I play at min stakes for cash, and micros tourneys and this time got some bonus money, but I rarely do for GG cheers, but when I do, how nice is it?? I wake up to an extra $17 or $24 or whatever to play with, great!!

So I don't really see the point in moaning about it, cos I'd be playing poker anyway a lot of the time.

All that said, it would be nice if they made it a hyper tourney, so at least ir feels like you do in fact have a say in whats going on. BUt the fact is, it plays itself and 3500 players from each one get free C$......so I say thanks very much GG, you're doing a great job of giving us all opportunities for free stuff, whilst playing the game we love anyway!!

For example, let's talk about the daily GGcare & GGcheers tournament with a prize pool of $100,000.
Would anything change for GG if all players received a prize? Instead of only about 40%, as is the case today?
Probably yes, because a player participating in this tournament would already know they have won something.
The entire community would be happy.
All players who don't have a large bankroll know that GG is the ideal room to invest their money, because by playing every day they can quickly get a ticket to that tournament, which means winning at least $4 and something, but with a bit of luck, maybe even a few hundred dollars or even more than $1000.
Why go to other rooms?
There are no frustrations here, no complaints like "I never win, only the rich win," because everyone wins something.
This is a win-win situation for everyone, because the players, once they receive their tournament prize, will reinvest it at the gaming tables, and so on.

I don't often qualify for the Care/Cheers one, and as you can see from my starting chips I only play micro.

But it still can be a nice boost.

those results are lovely. congratulations. C$ 86.34 in 12 tournaments not bad at all
not all are lucky like you.
so my idea why dont give all players the guarantee is that once you register for the tournament, you will definitely win something.
Let's set the minimum prize at $4.00? In your case 12 tournaments played you would be guaranteed to have won an additional C$32.00.
Not C$ 86.34 anymore but by slightly reducing all the prizes to guarantee a prize for everyone, let's say it goes from C$86.34 to C$78? or C$75?
with the guaranteed C$ 32.00, you would have a profit of C$ 107.00 something instead of C$ 86.34.

I had this idea because I often read about people who don't even consider these tournaments as poker, since you don't even need to sit at a table.
It's just a matter of luck. Therefore, if it's only luck that determines who wins the most coveted prize, at least a minimum prize should be guaranteed to all participants.

This promotion has been going on for several years... an interesting idea is to complete simple tasks for 12 days, but the results are usually useless... this ticket is completely useless... but you shouldn't expect anything else from GG))
It's pure luck! Playing with more volume increases your stack which can give you an edge but not a guarantee to win smth
The majority loses 🤷🏼‍♂️ that is always the case everywhere with gambling promos

Nobody should go in these flips with any expectations .
I didn't win anything either. Last year it was 37$ for me

I completed the task in just 4 days. Unfortunately, I didn't win anything. But overall, it's a good promotion. It's a shame it doesn't happen every month :)

No you didn't. It's 12 days . Each day a stamp.
You probably mean another promo
