Aussie Millions at Doyles Room

December 10, 2009

The Aussie Millions are coming up fast and your window to win your seat through an online qualifier tournament is closing. The 2010 Aussie Millions main event takes place in Melbourne, Australia in late January and Doyles Room is giving you a chance to win a $13,000 prize package. Many winners of this prestigious event go on to achieve poker fame to go with the fortune they’ve won. Last year 21-year old Russian Alexander Kostritsyn took home a life changing $1.65 Million for being the last man standing. This time around the Aussie Millions main event champion could be you. Start your ascension to poker greatness today by signing up at Doyles Room and qualifying for the 2010 Aussie Millions main event.

$13K Aussie Millions Package

In addition to the AUD $10.5K main event entry cost the prize package includes $1.5K in spending money, ten nights’ accommodation at the Crown Promenade in Melbourne, entry into a $50K live freeroll tourney, a bunch of Doyles Room exclusive gear, signed copies of Doyles super system 1 & 2 and entry into the Doyles Room welcome and farewell parties, where you will have the chance to meet the legend of poker himself, Doyles Brunson. Is this worth playing for? I think so.

How to Win

The direct qualifiers will take place every Sunday night at 8pm EST and every week at least 1 player is guaranteed to win a $13K Aussie Millions prize package. The buy-in for the direct qualifiers is $300 + $21. If you are signed up for a Doyles Room rakeback account then you would receive 30% of the $21 fee back, which would reduce the actual qualifier fee to $14.70. In every direct Aussie Millions main event qualifier tournament there will be at least one $13K prize package up for grabs. If there happens to be enough entrants, then one in every 43.33 tournament entrants will win this poker prize package of a lifetime.

There are smaller buy-in satellites that you can play to gain entry into the Aussie Millions main event qualifier. Every Sunday at 5pm EST, three hours before the main event qualifier, there will be a $57 + $3 Aussie Millions main event semi-final qualifier. One in every 5.26 entrants into the semi-finals will win an entry into the $300 + $21 direct qualifier. Other satellites into the direct Aussie Millions qualifier include $12 + $1 rebuy/add-on tournament that takes place daily and a 10 gold chip tournament that takes place every Saturday at 8pm EST.

Carbon Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot Pays Out Again!

September 23, 2009

Carbon Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot just paid out over $600,000 to nine lucky poker players in the latest Bad Beat Jackpot at CarbonPoker. Carbon Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot is known for growing quickly and paying out frequently.

Since 2008, the Carbon Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot has awarded over $2.3 Million.

Carbon Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot has the lowest qualifying hand of any online Bad Beat Jackpot. You only need quad 7s or better to trigger the jackpot.

The Bad Beat Jackpot has been reseeded and it’s already starting to grow. You can see how quickly its growing at CarbonPoker.com.

Below is the official press release from Carbon Poker giving all of the details of the latest Bad Beat hand.

September 22, 2009 – CarbonPoker recently paid out over $600,000 to lucky poker players on a Bad Beat table. The jackpot was triggered when a seemingly unbeatable Straight Flush lost to a Royal Flush.

Playing on a $0.50/$1.00 No Limit Texas Hold’em table, baseball127’s Queen-high Straight Flush lost to WhiteCSix’s Royal Flush. This ‘loss’ for baseball127 awarded him $211,758.31.

WhiteCSix’s winning hand took down the $128.78 pot as well as the $105,879.15 Bad Beat Winner bonus. The remaining seven players in the hand were all awarded $15,125.59

baseball127 has been playing poker for four years and had this to say: “I really can’t believe that this happened to me! I guess God had me bet there at just the right moment. I love CarbonPoker and the Bad Beat Jackpot! No one else compares to your game play functionality, quality of players and timely payouts.”

CarbonPoker spokesman, Jay Manning says, “CarbonPoker is proud to announce another Bad Beat Jackpot payout. It’s a fun way of giving back to players. Including our record-breaking $1.2Million payout earlier this year, we have awarded three life-changing jackpots.

“Imagine playing at a reasonably low-stakes table, with a pot of $128, and then finding over $200,000 in your account. It is a poker player’s dream – and CarbonPoker is happy to accommodate.”

Bodog Europe Launches Bodog.ca for Canadian Players

For Immediate Release

Sept. 3, 2009

It has been a monumental year for the Bodog brand and its licensees, and Bodog Europe is excited to officially announce yet another key milestone in the brand’s history: the launch of the Bodog experience to the Canadian market. Perhaps fittingly, Bodog Europe’s launch of www.Bodog.ca coincides with the 15-year anniversary of the Bodog brand, for the first time giving Canadian players the ability to cash in on some hot new promotions just in time for the remainder of the CFL season and the beginning of the NFL and NHL seasons.

Bodog Europe is lead by industry veteran and Managing Director Keith McDonnell, and is regulated and licensed by the Antigua & Barbuda Financial Services Regulatory Commission, Directorate of Offshore Gaming. McDonnell noted, “We’re extremely excited to be able to bring the unique Bodog experience to Canadian players. Canadians are passionate sports fans and are extremely savvy consumers. The Bodog brand is known world-over for its unmatched customer service and here at Bodog Europe we put the player’s experience and entertainment ahead of all else – I’m confident that we’re going to quickly earn Canadians’ loyalty and trust.”

Bodog.ca offers Canadian players safe, secure and simple access to world-class sports betting, a thriving and dynamic poker community, and a full Vegas-style casino with more than 80 web-based and downloadable games. Bodog Europe offers its players a simple, feature-rich sports betting product, offering a vast selection of sports betting opportunities across all major leagues and featuring live betting and an 80+ track Racebook. The Bodog.ca Sportsbook also has a particular focus on Canada’s most popular sports: NHL Hockey and CFL Football.

Bodog Europe – the upstart Bodog brand licensee already taking the UK by storm with its European-facing site www.Bodog.co.uk – had originally secured the rights to the world-famous “Bodog” brand for use in Europe only. However, when Bodog Europe Managing Director Keith McDonnell learned of BodogBrand.com’s willingness to entertain proposals to license the brand for use within Canada, he was quick to act, and secured the exclusive Canadian license.

“The Bodog brand is celebrating its fifteenth year anniversary this year – an absolutely remarkable pedigree and testament to its enduring values in an industry that quickly kills off mediocrity. The brand has gone through quite an evolution during that long history, and Bodog Europe is looking forward to carrying the torch forward for at least another fifteen years of world-class customer service, unbeatable promotions, and, above all – fun.”

Latest Update on Deposits and Withdrawals for USA Players at Bodog

September 5, 2009

Every now and then I’ll test out making a deposit by credit card at one of the poker rooms that I play at. As many of you may have experienced, credit card deposits get declined quite a bit. Well just today, I deposited $100 using my credit card and a week ago I deposited $50 using my debit card. Deposits went smoothly and needless to say, I am very happy. I have a couple of bets lined in for this weekends college football games so I needed to get some cash into my account quickly.

The main reason that I needed to add cash back into my account was that I made a withdrawal from my Bodog account by check. Made that withdrawal about a month ago and I think I had the check in about ten days. Not bad at all.

You may have seen an earlier post about how I also deposited into Bodog using a prepaid Visa card that I purchased at a local drugstore chain. If you don’t have a credit or debit card, a prepaid Visa or MasterCard is an excellent option as well.

Good Luck at the Bodog Tables!

Full Tilt Poker Software Update and Biggest Bonus Ever Promotion

August 1, 2009

Full Tilt Poker has announced that they will be awarding a $100 bonus to every player who has earned a Full Tilt Point prior to July 28th. All you have to do to earn this extra $100 is click on the “My Promotion” button in the cashier section of the Full Tilt Poker software and accept your $100 bonus. You then have 30 days to clear your bonus by playing in Full Tilt Poker tournaments and cash games. This “Biggest Bonus Ever” promotion was launched by Full Tilt to coincide with the release of Full Tilt Poker’s big software update in order to encourage players to try out the new Full Tilt Poker software.

Full Tilt has made a variety of changes to their software with this most recent update including a completely new lobby layout, more advanced filters to allow you to find the game you want more easily, lobby widgets to personalize your Full Tilt Poker software, new tournament deals options and even a new Full Tilt Poker hand replayer.

New Lobby Layouts
You can now choose between three lobby views; basic view, standard view and classic view. Basic view provides a step by step guide to finding the game you want. Standard view is the new fully featured lobby with advanced filters, favourites, a visually appealing layout and more. This is the view that most players should use. Then there is also the classic view option, which is the old Full Tilt lobby. If you aren’t a fan of change, then the classic option may be right for you.

Advanced Filters and Favourites
The new Full Tilt software has advanced filters which allow you to customize your search and find exactly the games you are looking for very easily. You can even save your search criteria as a favourite to save time in the future.

Lobby Widgets
The Full Tilt Poker lobby widgets allow you to fully personalize your Full Tilt Poker lobby. The widgets appear under the Full Tilt Poker game clock and you can choose which type of widget to have there for different searches so that you get the information you are most interested in quickly.

Full Tilt Poker Tournament Deals
Full Tilt has also included a tournament deals option in this software update. This means that you can make deals with your fellow players at the final tables of either scheduled tournaments or even sit and go’s. You can choose to make the deal based on chip ratio or independent chip modelling, but you also have the option to make a custom deal.

Full Tilt Poker Hand Replayer
The hand replayer is perhaps the biggest advantage of this Full Tilt software update. Now when you press last hand you can watch the entire hand take place rather than just see the outcome. This can be very beneficial to players because reviewing your game can only make you a better player.

Full Tilt Poker’s recent software update has made Full Tilt’s lobby extremely easy to navigate and the update also added many new and interesting features to the Full Tilt software. You should try out the software and see for yourself. Also, don’t forget to accept the $100 bonus from Full Tilt. It’s free money, so there is no reason for you not to take it!
