Why not host a freeroll poker tournament for levels Wood to Platinum? Top 5 players get to win 5 seats for the Jade VIP tournament and be given an opportunity to play with the high-rollers. I believe that would not only be good from a marketing perspective, but it will encourage building a community as well.
Good idea, it will be great if they will do your suggestion, at least it may make all VIP players able to join the poker tournament without waiting to be Jade first.
If they cant do it for free, maybe they can make it with cheap buy in like few dollars in order to join the poker tournament to win the free tickets for the VIP tournament.
Hope they will consider it, or maybe they can do it with other tournament on the site such as who have hit specific multiplier in any game on the site will get free tickets for the Jade+ tournament.
