General Description
A Piggy Bank is a cumulative offer where the amount of currency is built up over time by your game activity. Each time you win a game, a certain percentage of chips is automatically deposited to the Piggy Bank. Please note: this percentage is not deducted from your winnings but simply added on top of them. You can claim these savings at any point in time by breaking the Piggy Bank for a specified price. The only currency stored in the Piggy Bank is chips.
How Can I Top Up My Piggy Bank?
With each win, a certain percentage of chips is credited to the Piggy Bank (not deducted from the winnings but simply added on top of them).
At regular Hold 'Em or Omaha tables, as well as in Joker Hold 'Em and Royal Hold 'Em tournaments, the top-up is made from each winning hand.
In Sit-n-Go and multi round tournaments, the Mega Shootouts, the Elite Club tournaments and the Poker Series events (e.g. Christmas Poker Series), the total winnings awarded as prize money are used to calculate the share to be added to the Piggy Bank; individual winning hands are not eligible.
In Weekly Tournaments and Super Week events, prize money awarded at the end of the tournament is used to calculate the share; individual winning hands are not eligible.
City Series tournament winnings do not affect the Piggy Bank savings since their prize pool is made up of coins.
How Do I Break My Piggy Bank?
The Piggy Bank has the minimum and the maximum thresholds for chip accumulation. This means that you can only break the Piggy Bank once your savings exceed the minimum threshold, which is indicated by a hammer icon on the cumulative scale:
When the minimum threshold is reached, you have the opportunity to break the Piggy Bank for a specified price.
When the maximum threshold is reached, no additional savings can be credited to the Piggy Bank until you break it. Afterwards, you can start saving up again.
Piggy Bank Levels
The Piggy Bank has 3 levels that affect the size of the Piggy Bank and the price of breaking it: the higher the level, the more chips can be accumulated, but the more expensive it is to break the bank. As the level goes up, the rate of filling up the Piggy Bank slows down.
Leveling up occurs when you use the Piggy Bank. As soon as you break it, you are immediately upgraded to a higher level for your next savings run.
Once you're at the top level, it remains so permanently.
Do The Loyalty Program And The League Affect My Piggy Bank?
Yes, the Piggy Bank size and rate of accumulation are affected by both your tier in the Loyalty Program and your League. The higher they both are, the more favorable the conditions for breaking your Piggy Bank and the larger its savings capacity. The Piggy Bank is always affected by the maximum League you have had during your current Piggy Bank run.
Why Don't I Have A Piggy Bank?
The Piggy Bank is currently available to a limited number of randomly selected players only. This is necessary in order to tweak and polish the new functionality. As soon as this trial period ends, the Piggy Bank will become available to all our players.
