Blue & Improved

Black Belt Poker already boast two UKIPT Champions, but in 2012 we're giving you even more incentive to complete the hat-trick with an incredible offer exclusive to Blue Belt players.

If you are a Blue Belt on January 1, 2012, you'll be eligible for an entire season's worth of UKIPT Main Events in addition to your standard sponsorship package. No Spending Points will be deducted and you'll still receive Prize Points - this is added value at no added cost!

The Blue and Improved offer is open to everyone. If you've been eying up Blue Belt, then now is the perfect time to work your way through the Belt-Up Rewards System and reap the rewards of being a Black Belt Poker sponsored pro.

To qualify for each leg of the UKIPT, all you have to do is ensure that you are Blue Belt during the month of the tournament. If you are, then Black Belt Poker will buy you in to that month's UKIPT Main Event, whether it be in Brighton, Galway, Nottingham or Newcastle.

The UKIPT is a popular series of tournaments spread across the UK and Ireland with buy-ins ranging from €500 to €1,000. Players featured include Vicky Coren, JP Kelly, Julian Thew and Jude Ainsworth.

In 2010, Jamie Burland became the first Black Belt Poker Champion when he took down the Brighton leg for £65,400. The following season, Black Belt Sam Razavi echoed that feat when he triumphed in Cork for €71,000. Sam would ultimately finish Season 2 as the Leaderboard Champion, earning himself free entry into each leg of the upcoming season.

Now you have a chance to join him.

As well as the standard $1,500 per month in live tournament backing, there are numerous advantages to being a Blue Belt on Black Belt Poker. Not only do you receive an array of training benefits, but you are also made to feel a part of a team with the chance to raise your profile through the many media opportunities that arise.

So, in 2012, make sure you're not singing the blues, but actually being blue as we look to take the upcoming UKIPT season by storm and crown a third consecutive champion.
