How do I earn a Gold Card?
By taking a seat in any of our real money ring games, you're eligible to receive a Gold Card. As there are no minimum requirements necessary to earn a Gold Card, you may receive one on your first hand, even if you fold!
How does it work?
A Gold Card is released every time the table reaches a pre determined rake amount. Therefore, you will see Gold Cards more frequently at the higher limit tables (even though Gold Cards fall at all levels and stakes of our ring games). When you earn a Gold Card, you'll see it move towards your spot at the table, and from there it will be issued to your Gold Cards collection (within your rewards portfolio).
What is the value of a Gold Card?
Have you ever collected stamps or baseball cards? Think along those lines. While some offer instant value on their own, others may increase in value as your collection grows and time passes. How you use them is the fun part. Before redeeming your cards for a reward get familiar with judging their value by the following indicators:
By Card
In a regular deck of cards, each individual card holds a different value based on its number or face, and its suit; Gold Cards are no different. Once you receive a Gold Card, you can check the odds of receiving each card using our Gold Card Odds chart.
By Series
On the bottom right hand side of each Gold Card, you'll see a banner indicating a Series number. If you've just received a Gold Card, the banner will show Series III.
Where can I view my Gold Cards?
Gold Cards earned are safely stored within your Rewards portfolio. When logged in to FuguPoker, you can view your personal Gold Card collection by choosing the 'Rewards' tab.
Do Gold Cards expire?
Collecting Gold Cards is much like collecting any other commodity, such as stamps or baseball cards. Older cards may hold more value as the Series roll along, but they never expire.
