PokerStars To Move Forward with VIP Changes as Planned Despite Boycott Attempt
On Wednesday, Dec. 9, Eric Hollreiser, Vice President Corporate Communications for Amaya, released a blog post on the PokerStars Blog that addressed the recent player boycott, the changes to the VIP rewards program that have been under heavy fire from many in the community, and more.
Hollreiser began the post with the announcement of four $1 million freerolls that are planned for 2016. According to the post, these freerolls "will surely create buzz and generate excitement among players at all skill and experience levels" and "will be on top of an already exciting — though not-yet-announced — series of promotions, events, and new products that are planned for 2016."
