League X: Lights, Camera, Action


Unfortunately, we can't promise a night of passion with your favourite poker starlet or guarantee a place in the November Nine, but the prize for the latest Black Belt Poker League is almost as exciting: the chance to script and star in your own professionally made poker scenario.

In what is the most unique prize we've offered to date, the winner of League X will be invited to come up with a poker hand and situation, before acting it out in front of the camera with a line-up including Neil Channing, Richard Ashby and part-time thespian Sam Razavi.

Want to put a bad beat on "Bad Beat" Channing, cooler "Chufty", or talk trash with "KODDZILLA"? Then this is your chance to do just that. The situation could be anything: royal flush over straight flush, a hero call with jack high, or even a recreation of a famous hand from TV. It's totally up to you!

League X commences tomorrow night, June 14 at 7.30pm, exclusively on Black Belt Poker. As usual, the League will run over eight legs, taking place every Tuesday. The event can be located in the lobby under Scheduled > Black Belt Tournaments and costs $5+0.50 to enter. You can also buy in using Belt Points by purchasing a token in the Black Belt Poker Store.

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

Once again, we'll also be offering Belt Points to those who finish in the top 10:

1st Ultimate Poker Fantasy Package
2nd 1,000 Belt Points
3rd 850 Belt Points
4th 750 Belt Points
5th 600 Belt Points
6th 500 Belt Points
7th 400 Belt Points
8th 300 Belt Points
9th 200 Belt Points
10th 100 Belt Points

Last time, Blue Belt Jamie Burland became the ninth League winner when he defeated Chris Roadknight by just two points. As a result, he received 1.5% shares of our Black Belts in the WSOP Main Event. He also joined an illustrious list of Champions; this summer, it could be you...
