facebookHey everybody.

Just like everybody online (your mom included; she just added me) CarbonPoker has a facebook account.

Complete with a snappy URL, Facebook.com/CarbonPoker is a place fans of CP can get exclusive deals, promos, contests, etc. Meet up with other players, give us feed back. You know how it works.

As I’m writing this, we have 2,975 fans and I want us to hit 3K! As soon as we hit that magic number, I’ll be slinging around $109 coupons like they’re going out of style. On the day that we break 3,000, I’ll award 10 $109 coupons. (Those coupons are good for a spot on any of our famous $50,000 Guaranteed Tourneys).

Don’t wait, just do it.

Other promo: We’re pretty plugged in, so you should follow CarbonPoker on Twitter as well. Again, more deals, more articles and other exclusive deals. Get on it!

Posted By : CarbonPoker September 11th, 2009

Chip King ImageLabor Day has come and gone – so fall is officially here. While we’re squeezing the last drops out of summer, CarbonPoker is rolling out another great promotion: the ChipKing Champion.

This month we are offering up $20,000 in freerolls (in addition to our regularly scheduled free tourneys). In the ChipKing event, earn VIP Points through the eligibility periods to build your unique starting stacks for each of the Freeroll Events. The Top 50 VIP Point earners will compete in an exculsive (50-person only) $5K Freeroll. Again, this tourney will have unique starting stacks based on the VIP Points you’ve accumulated through the qualification periods.

What are the qualification periods, you ask? Aren’t you impatient…. just scroll down a little bit or check out the Official ChipKing Promo page.

The Schedule:

Week 1: September 7 – 12 VIP Point Qualification Period
- Sunday 13, September @ 12:00 Server Time — $2,500 Freeroll

Week 2: September 14 – 19 VIP Point Qualification Period
- Sunday 20, September @ 12:00 Server Time – $2,500 Freeroll

Week 3: September 7 – 26 VIP Point Qualification Period

VIP Points & Unique Starting Stacks:

Carbon MillionWe are officially one week into CarbonPoker’s best promotion of the summer.

The Carbon Million automatically tracks how many VIP Points you’ve earned and gives you cash for it. Pretty easy, right?

You’ve got 60 days in this promo, and every extra hand/game/tourney you play will earn you more VIP Points.

Here are a few of the 21 Tiers of prizes:

125 Points — $2.50 Cash

500 Points — $5.75 Cash

5,000 Points — $90.00 Cash

15,000 Points — $375.00 Cash

80,000 Points — $4,400.00 Cash

200,000 Points — $20,00.00 Cash

Hit the tables this weekend, earn more VIP Points and cash in on September 6th. The Carbon Million only lasts for 60 days, but that will go faster than you’d expect.

Get your games in and win. Simple.

The Final Countdown (to the Blogger Tourney)

Posted By : CarbonPoker July 14th, 2009

The_Final_CountdownWith only one day to go until the CarbonPoker Blogger Tourney, things are getting pretty intense.

I’ve locked myself to my computer, practicing for the event. I’ve read my own poker strategy posts again and again and I’ve been reading all the other competing blogs to try and spot some weaknesses (there are many).

For the No-Limit Hold’em event tomorrow at 7pm EST — feel free to come in and watch — there will be a full table of 10 competitors, a live chat thread on the CarbonPoker Blog and me dominating the action. What else could you hope for?

Stay posted for the full lineup of players, side bets, nicknames, recaps and guest posts.

Don’t forget that there’s a $500 prizepool at stake — so in addition to the smack talk, there will be some pretty decent (or stupid) poker being played.

This is going to be the first of many blogger poker events, so if you’re out there writing on the web, let me know in the comments or on Twitter ( @carbonpoker ).
