888 is playing this one very close to the chest, but if the countdown found in the lobby is any indication, players should have something to look forward too on June 1st.

Having a good reward program in place for the players is one of the best ways a site can attract new customers, and any player who is spending money playing poker should definitely take these programs into consideration when choosing a site.

Some things to look for in a reward scheme:

Frequent Player Points
Most sites will offer frequent player points in some form or another. What you as a player can look for is how you earn these points. Consider the amount of rake that you must pay to earn 1 point.

The next thing to look at is what can you use these points for? Right now Pacific allows you to convert your FPP directly to a $ amount. Most sites won't allow you to convert these points directly to dollar value but will offer FPP tournaments.

Poker Store
Another way to use those player points that you've earned from those long hours at the table.

Using them to buy discount electronics or unique poker apparel is a benefit that many poker players like taking advantage of and use as a reason to play at a particular site.

Bonuses
Every site has different deposit and reload bonuses, so make sure that you investigate these fully when deciding where and how much to buy into a site. As well as what are the necessary requirements to clear a bonus.

888 has for a long time had a unique deposit method where 25% of your deposit is available immediately. As well, make sure that you take advantage of the monthly reload bonuses offered at 888 - another program that is relatively generous.

Make sure that you have thoroughly investigated all of the bonus programs that are offered at your site, because you might just be missing some great opportunities.

Stay tuned for June 1st!
