Yes. Not unlike other businesses, PokerStars is participating in this promotion to attract new business.

Perhaps they would waive that requirement for certain players who played there a while ago and do not currently play.

You would have to ask them.

Great. Now, one last question:
I have already accrued the 100 FPP's, so what's gonna happen? Are they going to announce, or will they just throw up a "Card Player" tab or what?

Thanks for the attention on this, Barry.

P.S. I am a PAYING subscriber to Card Player, as I am rarely inside a B+M room anymore to just pick one up...and I have a tiny complaint: I wish you guys would stop selling the cover. Am I alone in this opinion?

We will shortly announce everythinfg by tomorrow I hope.

However the Pokerstars window for signup is Mar 1 - April 15.

Regarding the cover, what do you mean? I wish I could sell it. Almost always (at least 90%) we give it away. In the last year we have changed policy and started putting people on it such as this week's with Howard L winning the Party Poker Million.

Nobody paid for that (unfortunately :) )

I'll look forward to the annoncement re: the promotion. Thanks.
As for the cover, I had just always assumed that it was sold, because it has seemed to be almost invariably a promotional theme (this casino, that tournament), as opposed to anything else (strategy, opinion, or even player profile).
So, uh, never mind then.
Anyway, I read it cover to cover. (Damn, you'd think I'd be a better player!)

One last clarification please....by signup do you mean first deposit, because i had an account there for over a year but never funded it until after March 1st.

Am i still eligble. I hope signup means first deposit.

Thanks
