January Online Poker Promotion paying out in cash!

Play online pokerWe all know or believe poker to be a game of skill but any good player also understands there is still an element of luck involved. Catching the magic card on the river to suck out your opponent, checking your hole cards and seeing the pocket aces smiling at you… it is what you do with the cards you have (or don’t have) that creates the skill of the game.

Now with all this in mind, here comes the US friendly Aced Poker Room, and in January they are adding a special kind of luck to the game! As you play real money cash games, sit n gos or tournaments you earn comp points. Once you reach certain levels of comp points Aced is going to give you the chance to earn some great cash prizes! This is a great way to build your bankroll while you are enjoying your favorite game of online poker.

Here is how it works:

As I mentioned above, as you earn comp points from playing any real money game you will get chances at the "Aced Luck Box" Your first shot is when you earn a low 5,000 comp points. You will be shown three briefcases in the player admin page and you get to pick one, each box has cash in it so you can’t lose in any way. But you can win big by choosing the "jackpot" box. The cash will be awarded into your freeroll winnings account and you will have to wait 7 days before you can cash it out, but you are free to use it at the poker tables right away. You also must have made a deposit prior to January 31st to participate in this great poker promotion.

When you do make your deposit, be sure to use the special coupon code of ACEDXMAS and you will get a 100% bonus all the way to $1000 free! This bonus code is valid until January 31, 2009 and can be used a total of 2 times. Rememeber, Aced poker allows US players (except KY).

I almost forgot to mention that the Bad Beat Jackpot at Aced over $872,000 now! It has to break soon, so why not earn your points, make cash in the luck box and pull down the jackpot all at the same time? I know where I am going to be playing, do you? Click here and get the FREE software download and start making some serious poker cash in January! See you at Aced! Good luck!
