Building a Bankroll With Rewards Programs
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!
We are updating this post as Bodog Poker left the USA and was replaced by Bovada Poker. Well, now Bovada Poker was taken over by Ignition Poker. Players were given the opportunity to move their accounts to the new poker room. Ignition Poker is part of the Bodog family and shares players across the network. Visit our Ignition Poker review for more details. The information in this post rings true today as it did when originally posted as Ignition Poker hosts the Sunday $100k! This MTT still remains an outstanding value with large overlays.
In my last article I shared the bankroll management strategy of playing in guaranteed tournaments with overlays. One of the very best values is playing in the weekly 100k guaranteed tournament at Igntion Poker. The 100k is Igntion 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… Igntion accepts US players and now Canadian players can play at Igntion too!
To get in on the action of the Igntion 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 Igntion 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 Igntion adds one seat to the 100k semi-final for every 34 players in the game.
You can also catapult your way into the Igntion 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 Igntion 100k Qualifier Schedule to see when games start. You can even get a seat in the qualifiers with Igntion 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 Igntion 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 Igntion 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 Igntion Poker today and best of luck in the 100k!
Special Doyles Room Thanksgiving Bounty Tournament!
It’s Thanksgiving week in the USA and DoylesRoom is thanking players with an extra special Bounty game on Wednesday Nov. 24th at 9:30pm eastern! The Bounty plays every week and every week you have a shot at $50k in bounties, well this week is a touch more juicy!
Not only are there five bounties in the game this week, namely Doyle “Tex_Dolly” Brunson, Todd "TBRUNSON" Brunson, Pam "PAM BRUNSON" Brunson, Mike "The Mad Genius" Caro and Hoyt "Mr. Move All-In" Corkins, this week even if you don’t take out a bounty, if you are seated at a table that a bounty player gets taken out, you will share $600 with your table mates! You can actually get a part of a bounty without risking a single chip! This is just one way DoylesRoom, the US friendly poker room on the Cake Poker Network are thanking players this year.
The Bounty is actually like a freeroll the first time you play too! All you have to do is pay your way in to the game (at a low $27.50) and win or lose, visit the rebate page here following the game and enter your details.
