US-Friendly Online Poker Tournaments Hit The States

ClubWPT, as in Club World Poker Tour, has found a way to give US online poker players a way to keep doing what they love, and it’s called Subscription Poker.
It’s a brilliant premise, actually: pay a specific fee on a monthly or yearly basis, enter unlimited tournaments with no buy-in (and therefore no real risk), and, through your poker skills, have a chance to win the cash and/or prize promotions available. It’s not gambling; it’s a competitive club.
And, speaking of US-Friendly poker tournaments, there are quite a few to choose from. No-Limit Hold-em is a site favorite, so you’ll see that several times on the list. What changes is what you are playing for, be it cash, points, prizes, or chips. It’s difficult to list all the online poker tournaments that make up the $100,000 monthly cash up for grabs, but here’s a quick idea:
- $10,000 Guaranteed Cash No-Limit Hold’em Tournaments
- Deepstack $2,000 Cash (every Saturday)
- WPT Boot Camps
- TAGTuesdays: The prize? TAGHeuer sunglasses worn by Formula One Champion Kimi Räikkönen.
- $200 Nooners: ClubWPT takes Hump Day seriously with a noon tournament worth a couple of Benjamins.
VIP members get access to all the cash and glory, including seats at the World Poker Tour live tournaments, but basic members, who pay nothing for their membership, can have a pretty good time with all the play money tables until they’re ready for a more committed experience.
Read more about ClubWPT as mentioned in our Poker Blog, which also includes a graphic that details which states are eligible to play at this forward-thinking online poker room.
Right now, you can take advantage of getting two weeks of the VIP experience for free. Play poker in peace already.

iPad2: The New Online Poker Currency.
April 27, 2011

First there was the Hollywood Poker iPad promotion. Then came the Doyles Room iPad promotion. Now Bodog Poker happily jumps on the technology bandwagon (otherwise known as the Apple Cart) in its Cash PerSuit promotion where four lucky players will hop, skip, and brag away with brand new iPad2s.
I think it’s safe to say that the Apple iPad2 is the new currency for online poker rooms this year. Not that anyone is complaining.
The Bodog Poker iPad2 promotion not only awards the coveted touchscreen prize, it also gives online poker players a chance winning entry into the $10,000 freeroll tournament as well as a chance at straight cash.
Bodog’s Cash PerSuit starts on Monday, May 2nd and goes for four solid weeks. To get the best chances to win, Bodog poker players are encouraged to play daily to rack up as many player points as possible. Several cash bonus prizes, from $15 to $30 per week, are available for those players who consistently earn specific amounts of player points day after day.
It’s a good thing that earning Bodog Poker player points is easy. All you need to do is:
- Play in Ring Games. Contribute to a raked pot, and your player points will tally automatically.
- Play in Cash Tournaments. Get 3 points for every $1 paid in tournament fees paid.
- Just Play Poker. For every hour you spend playing at real money tables, you’ll earn additional poker points (and no, sitting out doesn’t count), up to 500 points per month. Time spent at play money tables and freeroll tournaments does not count toward the tally.
Players from the US, you’re in luck–Bodog Poker is a USA-friendly poker room. You, too, have a chance to grab life by the touchscreen.
Is an iPad2 in your future?
“Sumo” Slot Tournament Opens This Weekend
April 21, 2011
Posted by KaceyM in : General , add a comment
I wasn’t sure what to think when I saw that SuperSlots is featuring the online slot game “Sumo” in its regular weekend slot tournament this weekend. It almost made me feel bad for the packages of marshallow Peeps and chocolate bunnies I’m planning to devour over the next few days.
Almost.
The Sumo Weekend Tournament starts on April 22nd and runs until April 24th. The buy-in is $5 and the prize pool is whatever pot is generated. The more sugar-rushed, candy-coated online slots players that participate, the more money you can win!
In the spirit of the holiday, I’d be remiss not to mention SuperSlot’s $50,000 Egg Hunt tournament, which features the Funky Chicken slot game and runs through the month of April. With 9 days left of game play, online slots players have plenty to time to rack up a decent finish, especially with the bonuses Funky Chicken tends to drop.
Good luck and Happy Easter!
