    I see that there is a rake race freeroll on power poker. I was wondering if there are any "races" or "tourneys" on UB coming up. Also what is the difference between a "rake race" and "rake tourney". I am new to rake back. Thanks

    Hi there,

    We run a $20,000 rake race every single month for our players on UB. There are two different things going on:

    Rake Races - A competition with a leaderboard in which the people who do the most rake get the highest prizes. For instance, if we ran a $1k rake race that paid 5 spots $450, $250, $175, $125, $100, then the top 5 rakers who play for rakeback through us would get those prizes depending on how much they raked the previous month. You can see our current leaderboard here for UB, and we will soon be updating the page to show how much each player in the leaderboard has raked.

    Freerolls - If there's a freeroll, it's a free entry tournament that is restricted to players within our rakeback organization who have raked at least a certain amount or satisfied some other requirement. For instance, we currently run a $5,000 freeroll every month on Cake Poker for all of our players who earned at least 250 player points the previous month.

    Hope this helps explain! Let me know if I can answer further questions for you.
