League VII: Party With the Pros

Grab a cracker and a glass of sherry as League VII has arrived in festive spirits. With the Christmas season approaching, Black Belt Poker have decided to invite the winner of League VII to the Black Belt Poker Christmas party at the Grosvenor Victoria as a special guest of 2010 Luton GUKPT Champion Neil Channing.

At the party, the lucky winner will get to chat, play and dine with the pros, including UKIPT Champion Jamie Burland, Irish Player of the Year Owen Robinson, and bracelet winner Richard Ashby. After a slap-up meal, the League VII Champion will play against the Black Belt Poker Team in a £1,500 SNG freeroll, the winner of which will receive £1,000 with second taking £500.

The League will be a weekly $5 No Limit Hold'em freezeout commencing on Tuesday, October 26, 2010 and running for eight weeks until Tuesday, December 14, 2010. The prizes for the top 10 places are as follows:

1st Party Package & DeucesCracked Token
2nd 1,000 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
3rd 850 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
4th 750 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
5th 600 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
6th 500 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
7th 400 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
8th 300 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
9th 200 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token
10th 100 Belt Points & DeucesCracked Token

Points for each leg will be awarded in reverse order, so that in a 50-runner event, 50th would earn 1 point, and 1st 50 points. The top 10 finishers per leg receive the following additional points:

1st 25 Points
2nd 18 Points
3rd 15 Points
4th 12 Points
5th 10 Points
6th 08 Points
7th 06 Points
8th 04 Points
9th 02 Points
10th 01 Point

The League is open to Yellow Belts and above and you can join at any point. This is a great opportunity to not only meet Black Belt Poker latest's recruit Richard Ashby and the rest of the sponsored team, but also get to ask them questions about your game.

If your aces are cracked in the League, then fear not, as we have two other tournaments waiting in the wings. At the new time of 8.30pm, the Mulligan is a deep-stacked freezeout that offers plenty of room for skill to prevail, and all for just $15+1.50!

Then, at 9.30pm is when the real fun starts as we introduce our $0.50+0.05 Donkament, a No Limit rebuy frenzy that gives players the opportunity to release all that pent up frustration from any bad beats suffered during the previous tournaments.

If that isn't enough to whet your appetite, then Neil Channing will be returning for Challenge Channing, a $0.25/0.50 full-ring cash game starting at 9.00pm. If you fancy fleecing Channing's pockets, then simply search for 'Table Channing' in the cash game lobby.

Super Tuesday is back and better than ever, and we'd love for you to join us next week for the opening leg, whatever your Belt level. So, log in, get signed up, and brace yourself for some poker fun and frolics, Black Belt Poker style. In eight weeks' time, you might just find yourself joining a very illustrious list indeed...
