I think it says you have to reach the level in DECEMBER.
And that it will be paid to you on Jan. 1
So that would mean you have alot of poker playing to do in Dec. not Jan.
????????
edit:
hmm, looks like they have some confusing/contradicting info in there....
Players who qualify for any Iron Man Challenge level in December 2007 will be eligible to receive an Iron Man Challenge Year-End Bonus in January 2008. The total bonus that a user can receive is based on the number of months in which they reached an Iron Man level in 2007, and on the levels that they reached. All qualifying players should see their bonus on January 1st, 2008.
and then......
Players may earn their Iron Man Challenge Year-End bonus by playing in our real money ring games and tournaments between January 1st and January 31st, 2008. All Year-End Bonuses will be paid in a lump sum on or about Monday, February 4th, 2008. If a player does not earn their entire bonus before 11:59PM ET on Thursday, January 31st, 2008, we will credit their account with an amount equal to the amount of the bonus they earned between January 1st, 2008 and January 31st, 2008.
So, idk.
