Tournaments
Betfair hosts some of the largest multitable tournaments for casinogames online. Some of the weekly tournaments total up to $50 000 per week in prize money, and the buy ins are quite reasonable. For expensive tournaments (e.g. the monthly tournaments), there are normally satellites that can give you access more cheaply.
VIP Program
Members of the VIP Club get a bonus on their first deposits each month. The bonus level is determined by your VIP level. Other benefits of the VIP Club membership include invitations to VIP campaigns and VIP events.
