Building a Bankroll With Rewards Programs

Dec 092009

Earlier this week we talked a bit about playing in guaranteed tournaments with overlays as a way to build your bankroll and to protect it as well. Now I’d like to share with you another way to build a poker bankroll while you are playing at the tables. This is accomplished with playing online poker at a poker room that has a good rewards program. If you are going to be playing anyway, you may as well reap some rewards while you play.

Starting today, December 9, 2009, DoylesRoom has added a new and exciting rewards program that will add cash to your bankroll while you are playing at any real money ring game or tournament!

DoylesRoom has always had Gold Cards and Gold Chips as part of their rewards program, but now they have introduced "Gold Stacks"! As you play poker you will be building your gold stack, as you advance in levels you will first earn more gold chips, but once you hit level 10, you start earning cash! And the faster you can move up the levels the more cash you will be rewarded with! You will earn from the base of $12.50 up to the top levels paying out $682.50!

Each level has three tiers of rewards, if you complete the level at "Super-Turbo" you will max out the cash reward. Even if you take your time, you still cash in but at a lower reward amount. For example, at level 10, Super Turbo rewards with $24.75 while the guaranteed payout is $12.50. Super Turbo is 0-3 days, Turbo is 4-6 and the guaranteed level is set at 7 days or more.

Your level will remain the same or go higher too! The only way you will loose your level is if you don’t earn at least three Gold Chips over the course of two consecutive months. In that case, you will be returned to level 10. You NEVER lose levels if you are under level 11.

To track what level you are on, what you need to advance and what your rewards will be, you can check the handy Gold Stack Stick in the poker software at anytime. This tool will track your progress in real time and is available 24/7!

To get you started on building your gold stack, and increasing your poker bankroll, DoylesRoom has allowed us to offer you a special exclusive poker bonus matching your deposit 110% up to $600 FREE! That is $50 more than the players off the "street" can get at DoylesRoom and it is just for our readers! Just sign up with our links and use DoylesRoom bonus code PPU110B to claim your free cash!

DoylesRoom accepts US players from all states (except KY) and operates on the Cake Poker Network. DoylesRoom is the only online poker room endorsed by and played at by the "Godfather of Poker" Doyle Brunson.

Sign up with DoylesRoom today and start building your Gold Stacks to boost your bankroll! Learn more about this great US friendly online poker room at our DoylesRoom review.

The Best Value in Poker Tournaments, the Bodog 100k!

Dec 062009

In my last article I shared the bankroll management startegy of playing in guaranteed tournaments with overlays. One of the very best values is playing in the weekly 100k guaranteed tournament at Bodog Poker. The 100k is Bodog Poker’s top paying tournament and it has historically had huge overlays. In fact, most weeks may see as much as a $30,000 overlay! There is no other big money poker tournament with this small of a field.

So would you rather play against tens of thousands of other players or would you rather go against 500- 800 players and have a shot at a $25,000 first prize? And… Bodog accepts US players and now Canadian players can play at Bodog too!

To get in on the action of the Bodog 100k you can get in several ways. First off is buyin in direct for $162. Now that might be a little steep for many players (including myself) so Bodog runs a huge amount of satellites to the game. The first level of 100k qualifiers is called the "Cheap Seats". These tournaments only cost 1.10 to play and Bodog adds one seat to the 100k semi-final for every 34 players in the game.

You can also catapult your way into the Bodog 100k from satellites that have low buy ins of $7.70, $17, $22 and 34.00. On game day (Sunday) the lobby is packed with "Last Chance" qualifiers with a new satellite starting about every 2 minutes! Visit the Bodog 100k Qualifier Schedule to see when games start. You can even get a seat in the qualifiers with Bodog Poker Points that you earn from playing poker!

There is another way to get a FREE seat to the 100k! Simply open an account with Bodog Poker here, make your first deposit (you get a 110% match up to $550 FREE) and you will get a seat in six of the $100K New Player Qualifier Freerolls! As I said before, the Bodog 100k is most likely the best value in online poker. If you are not playing this tournament, you are missing out on an incredible value. Sign up with Bodog Poker today and best of luck in the 100k!

Finding Value in Guaranteed Poker Tournaments, (find the overlay)

Finding the best value is just one of many bankroll management methods when it comes to playing poker and realizing a profit on your play. Picking the right cash game, isolating and exploiting weaker players, knowing when to back off a pot and when to put in a big bet. The strategies in bankroll management is vast, many books and articles have been written on proper bankroll management.

One of the topics often overlooked is buying into guaranteed tournaments, ones with large overlays can often be one of the best values when playing poker online. Online poker rooms run multi table tournaments (MTT) that have a guaranteed prize pool. When they don’t register enough players to cover the prizepool posted, you have what is called "Overlay".

A guaranteed prizepool is just what it sounds like. They will make up the difference in the prizepool from what the players buy in is and a pre-determined amount. So if they promote a $1,000 guaranteed with a 2.00 buy in, and only 400 players sign up… there would be a $200 overlay (2.00 x 400= $800, $1000 is guaranteed, so $1,000 – 800 = $200 overlay). The realized value to the online poker player is that there are less players competing for the prizepool, this raises the odds on you winning the tournament or at least making it to the money. Think about this… Would you rather battle 800 players to cash in a $1,000 prizepool tournament, or would you rather play against 1,000 players for the same slice of the cash? Most players would rather have the smaller field and the same prize value. I am sure you would too.

Knowing now what overlay is, and how it adds value to your game, lets take a look at a few tournaments that have guaranteed prizepools and are known for large overlays.

Carbon Poker runs what they call the $1 Dollar Dazzler twice daily, this is a low buy in of only $1.00 + .20 and the prize pool is $1,250 guaranteed for the 12:15 eastern game, the second game plays at 6:15 pm eastern and is guaranteed a $1,750 prizepool. Both of these games have very large overlays, usually between 250 and 300 players! Let’s do the math again, 300 players times 1.00 = $300… $1750 guaranteed less $300 paid = $1,450 overlay! To not have overlay, Carbon Poker would have to register 1,750 players for the game. What tournament would you rather play? One against 1750 players or one against 300? Easy question huh?

Carbon Poker is US friendly too, so most anyone can join in these games. To add to your bankroll, use bonus code (they call it coupon code) PPUS200 and you will get our exclusive 200% poker bonus up to $500 FREE when you make your first deposit! Click here to get started at Carbon Poker.
