PokerStars is ringing in St. Patrick’s Day with a new Emerald Rush promotion. The event gives players a chance at cash prizes, bonuses, and free spins in a prize pool totaling $15,000. Emerald Rush is already in progress, but it runs through March 31, so there’s still plenty of time to take advantage.

The promotion is only available on PokerStars’ international site, which is accessible to Canadian players outside of Ontario. 

    How Emerald Rush Works

    During the Emerald Rush promotion period, PokerStars players can complete puzzle challenges for chances at big prizes. The goal? Complete challenges to unlock rows on a board, with each complete row revealing a chest with a prize. Finishing the whole puzzle board earns players a trip to the Emerald Rush Vault for a guaranteed cash prize.

    To kickstart the Emerald Rush experience, PokerStars will grant players five free spins.

    Two Lucky Players Will Win Their Way To The Irish Poker Open

    PokerStars has a Silver Power Pass program offering lucky players the chance to win trips to participate in big-ticket live poker tournaments.

    Appropriately enough, the destination for the “Emerald” version is this year’s Irish Poker Open, which has PokerStars as the sponsor. Any player who opts in to Emerald Rush will be entered to win the prize package, worth $2,750. It includes:

    • Irish Open Main Event Entry
    • Side event entry
    • Mini Irish Open ticket
    • Special merchandise
    • Exclusive activities and a live event liaison

    The Irish Poker Open will take place at the Royal Dublin Society from April 10 to 21, 2025. It hosts poker players from around the world. The 2025 tournament is the 45th anniversary. The guaranteed prize pool in the Main Event is €2.5 million, and the Mini Irish Open has a guaranteed pot of €1 million.
