Today offers quite an opportunity. PokerStars opened up a 20% deposit bonus today. It will run from now until September 8th. You can click here for complete bonus details.

Frankly, of all the bonuses PokerStars offers, this one comes at a really neat time. First and foremost, Team PokerStars’ Wil Wheaton’s Hurricane Katrina Relief Tournaments are coming up very soon. You could clear your deposit and use it to help the people who are suffering on the Gulf Coast. If you click on “Tourney” and “Special” in your game lobby, you’ll find charity events for every bankroll.

That’s not to mention what you should already know– the fourth annual World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) starts this weekend. A little bonus cash couldn’t hurt in the quest to be the next winner of a WCOOP event.

So, if you’ve been thinking about making a deposit at PokerStars, there is no better time than right now. One deposit gets you 20% more and could let you play big and help the hurricane victims in the process.
