Last week, Orange Belt Adam 'JHobbit1' Saunders raised the bar when he broke the record for the highest League points score, capturing his second League crown in crushing style and earning himself a free seat into a Black Belt Live event of his choosing.
For the League's fourteenth outing, we're swapping brick and mortar for the cyber felt and inviting Black Belt Poker's finest warriors to battle for one of three free seats into Samurai.
Armed with a $10,000 guaranteed prize pool and a $250+25 entry fee, Samurai is a quarterly online tournament exclusive to Black Belt Poker, meaning you don't have to defeat hundreds of opponents to win a major prize.
There are weekly satellites from as little as $5+0.50, but with League XIV you can qualify for free. The first leg takes place in just seven days on Tuesday, March 13 and costs just $5+0.50 to play. The tournament is open to all players.
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. 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're also giving away Belt Points to those who make it into the top 10, but just miss out on a star prize:
1st Samurai Seat & Personalised Hoodie
2nd Samurai Seat
3rd 1,000 Belt Points
4th 725 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
We're also offering all leg winners who missed out on the top two spots one final bite of the cherry in a Second Chance SNG. The SNG will take place the day after the final leg of the League on Wednesday, May 2, with the last man standing reaping the same rewards as the overall winners and earning free entry into Samurai on May 3.
This means that even if you're in last place with just one leg to go, you still have a chance of winning the star prize!
And it doesn't end there. Anyone who manages to sweet-talk the Mrs. (or Mr.) and escape to the computer to play all eight league legs will once again be rewarded with an additional 200 Belt Points. That's extra value just for turning up, regardless of your final position in the standings!
