Rio World's Standard of Online Poker

Think you can guess the World Cup matches results? Come and take the World Cup million dollar challenge on XXX Poker!

We’re giving up to $1,000,000 to whoever guesses 25 match results of the 2010 World Cup, and additional daily prizes on top of it.

How does it work?

Play poker  > Win a token > Bet > Win money

What do you have to do?

Ah, this is simple – just play poker! You can play ring games or tournaments, whatever you like, as much as you can, and you can win a “betting token” every day during the World Cup games.

Do everyone get the same daily token?

Players can win one token every day during the promotion, according to the below tables. Players will get the highest possible value of token for every day they’ve played.

How do I bet?

Well betting is easy – once you won a token you’re just one poker hand away from “placing your bet”.

For every daily match you can choose between three World Cup “one hand” heads up SNGs. Each SNG represents the possible outcome of the match.

You simply choose to which you want to register according to the token level you’ve received and your prediction of the match, and that’s it.

For example: the first match you can bet on is Uruguay vs. France. Let’s assume that you’ve received a Bronze token.

You can now register to a WC Bronze – France wins SNG, a WC Bronze – Uruguay wins SNG, or a WC Bronze – Drew SNG. You register, the SNG then plays and that’s it – you have placed your bet!

What do I win?

it’s a win-win situation, no matter if you won the bet or not, or if you won the hand or not.

When the World Cup ends, we will run four of each of the following freerolls, day after day:* $5,000 freeroll, ** $2,500 freeroll, ***$1,000.
