Most online poker rooms offer player points to reward real money players. With these rewards players usually recieve points based on the rake generated by the player or by the player being involved in a raked hand.

Players can usually exchange the points they have earned for gifts, such as iPods or TVs, or cash rewards and tournament buy-ins/tokens offered by the online poker sites.

These player points can be accumlated quickly and as players progress through the VIP tier levels the points begin to grow even quicker.
