Yesterday, we told you about the weekly King of the Felt contest for SNG players at Bovada Poker. Today, we’d like to remind you of a similar contest for tournament players running monthly at Carbon Poker. It’s called the Tourney King promotion, and the crown comes with a first prize of up to $3,000 and a total prize pool of more than $20,000.
Carbon Poker offers two leaderboards with two sets of prizes in this contest, crowing two Tourney Kings at the end of each month instead of one. There is both a low-stakes and a high-stakes contest in this promotion, so that players of all bankrolls can participate. The low limit leaderboard is for tourneys with buy-ins of $0 – $19.99 while the high limit leaderboard is for tourneys with buy-ins of $20 and higher.
To participate in the Tourney King contest, play in as many tournaments at Carbon Poker as you can and perform in each of them as well as you can. Points are awarded based on a complex formula that accounts for the buy-in cost, number of entrants and a player’s final position in the tournament. Participants also get a bonus multiplier applied to their score for reaching the final table of a given tournament. To place on one of the Tourney King leaderboards, just be in the top 250 points earners at the end of the month.
With January nearing an end, it means a new Tourney King will soon be announced and a new Tourney King contest will start afresh with the coming of February.
