Unless I missed this there seems to be no mention that as a Purple Belt you can get Deuces Cracked at a discount for 360 points (I believe that is half price if my memory serves me correctly). I don't know if this applies to what other belts but I thought I'd mention it in case anyone is not aware like I wasn't before looking at the store right now. Lovely little extra hidden perk.

General question do Steps Tokens expire or are they timeless?

our kidsid posted on 21 May, 6:02pm

they do expire and you should now be able to view them in the client. an email to bbp support will get them reset if they expire unused - its a shame they do expire though never understood why they do.

Really enjoyed the Samurai last night - took an hour to relax after going out 6th for $0 but was a very tough field.
Looking forward to the next one :O)
Congrats Owen, well played all those in the $$$

If you're searching for an affordable, deep-stacked online tournament with a fun-filled atmosphere, then look no further than our Deepstack Mulligan.

Taking place every week, the event starts place at 8.30pm, and just 30 minutes following the Orange Belt Freeroll. Entry is a bargain at $15+1.50 and is a No Limit Hold'em freezeout.

We'd love to increase numbers in this event, and have it as a staple tournament of Black Belt Poker, so if you are around on Wednesday evenings, then please feel free to join in the fun and give it a shot.

Neil Channing posted on 22 May, 10:22pm

While everyone else was distracted Kevin just did his usual professional job.

The man is a machine.

Sen Sei posted on 23 May, 8:26am

It was business as usual for Kevin Birt as he topped this week's Deepstack Mulligan:

3rd tristiano -- $33.75 (10 Belt Points)

Every month, Black Belt Poker host four Freerolls, exclusive to Orange and Purple Belts. The Freerolls take place every Wednesday from 8pm.

For more details on these Freerolls, see here:

http://www.blackbeltpoker.com/promotions/orange-freerolls/

The Orange Belt Freerolls are a great opportunity to turn a little into a lot. Last May, four 'Slice of the Action' Freeroll winners earned in excess of $16,000 after Sam Razavi won UKIPT Cork.

Few sites offer this kind of opportunity.

Those who finish in the top 20 win a prize, while anyone who participates in all eight legs automatically receives a loyalty bonus of 150 Belt Points.

Alternatively, you can purchase a token in the Store for just 165 Spending Points.
