Win a Nexus 4 Smartphone and a Share of $2,000 Only on PartyPoker

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

One of the most sought-after gadgets in the world, the Nexus 4 smartphone, has been out of stock more than it has been available, but PartyPoker is offering PokerNews customers the chance to get their hands on one — and a share of $2,000.

On Feb. 9 at 15:00 ET (20:00 GMT), PartyPoker is hosting an Aussie Millions Freeroll that is exclusive to PokerNews customers. Players who makes their first deposits on PartyPoker between Jan. 28 and Feb. 9 will automatically be entered into the PokerNews Aussie Millions Freeroll.

  • Tournament Name: PokerNews Aussie Millions Freeroll
  • Date: Feb. 9, 2013
  • Time: 15:00 ET (20:00GMT)
  • Prize pool: Nexus 4 plus $2,000 in cash
  • Payout structure: Winner receives a Nexus 4; cash awarded according to standard PartyPoker payout structure
  • Restrictions: Only available to PokerNews customers who make their first deposit between Jan. 28 and Feb. 9

With the qualification period only being open for 12 days, the freeroll field size should be much smaller than usual, meaning your chance of getting your hands on a brand new Nexus 4 is greater.
