BBP League Starts Tonight!



Forget the Champions League, the NBA or even the Poker Premiership, because the Black Belt Poker League picks them up, chews them apart and spits them out like a globule of rotten tobacco. Having successfully launched the cardroom on Thursday, September 3, Black Belt Poker have wasted no time in setting up a League for our loyal community members, in which we offer added prizes in the form of Belt Points and… drum roll please… Black Belt Poker merchandise. Woohoo!

The community members have already hosted their own leagues, but have duly agreed to commence battle on the Black Belt Poker skin for their latest outing. The location might be different, but the time, date and price will be exactly the same. Thus, the first ever Black Belt Poker league tournament will be staged tonight, Tuesday, September 15, at 8.30pm on the Black Belt Poker skin on iPoker, the world’s largest poker network. The event will be a No Limit Hold’em freezeout with a buy-in of $5 and a $0.50 registration fee. To find the tournament, simply click the ‘scheduled tournaments’ tab and then select ‘special’.

To thank our community members for their contribution and continued support, Black Belt Poker have agreed to contribute to the prize pool by offering Belt Points for the top 10 finishers, meaning that even if you are slow out of the blocks, miss a week, or have a day of bat beats, suck-outs and outdraws (yes, I know, they’re the same thing) there will still be prizes up for grabs. The Belt Point rewards after the completion of the League are as follows:

1st 400 Belt Points
2nd 250 Belt Points
3rd 150 Belt Points
4th 75 Belt Points
5th Belt Points
6th Belt Points
7th Belt Points
8th Belt Points
9th Belt Points
10th Belt Points

Black Belt Poker merchandise – an assortment of branded caps, T-shirts and hoodies - will also be awarded to the top three performers as an extra incentive, and to celebrate the inaugural event, Black Belt Poker will be adding $50 to the prize pool of tonight’s opening tournament.

The Black Belt Poker league will run for 10 weeks and is open to everyone. As long as you open an account on the cardroom and deposit enough money to cover the $5.50 buy-in, you will be free to register for the tournament and take advantage of the extra value on offer. As the League was transferred over from another site mid-league, the first Black Belt Poker tournament will actually be Week Four. However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t sill join in and pick up some of the prizes on offer. Either way, Black Belt Poker will be back with a second League after the completion of League I.

This is a wonderful opportunity to not only get your hands on some additional Belt Points, but become a part of the Black Belt Poker community and begin improving your game by sharing ideas, discussing hands, and learning from other players. Who’s going to win Black Belt Poker’s first ever league match? It could be you… (cue giant hand coming from the sky and pointing at you intrusively).
