Paddy Power Poker today launches Paddy’s Green Card, rewarding VIP players with exclusive perks for playing on paddypowerpoker.com.

This promotion is open to old and new customers alike; players must achieve Green Card status (40,000+ Paddy Points in a calendar month) from the 1st August – 31st October 2011 to qualify. Once achieved, the card will be valid for a three month period on the condition that the player maintains that level of play throughout.

Paddy’s Green Card comes with many perks; initially players will receive a once-off gift of an exclusive hoodie and personalised silver card protector along with their shiny new Green Card. Following this, players will be eligible for the following monthly benefits for three months provided the required level of play is maintained:

* 20% discount on all bonuses available in the paddypowerpoker.com VIP store

* €/£50 free bet with paddypower.com

* Live event satellite token every month worth $50

* Entry into an exclusive weekly $1,000 freeroll

Finally players who really show their loyalty to paddypowerpoker.com by maintaining a rolling average of 1,300 points per day for the full 3 month period will receive a complimentary iPad 2!

Previous Full Tilt Black Card holders will be granted a short cut to becoming a Green Card holder; once they average 1,300 points over a seven day period they will awarded the exclusive card and associated benefits.

Paddy Power Poker has also today increased their first deposit bonus to 200% up to $2,000.
