March Madness @ Carbonpoker
March Madness
COMING SOON! STARTING ON MARCH 1
You can win a pot of gold in our March Madness promotion!
As you play real money poker, you earn Comp Points which have a variety of uses, and we're now adding even more value to Comp Points to help you win free cash as you play. To celebrate St. Patrick's Day, we've gone Irish and added pots of gold for every player to win!
In your player admin section, a customized rainbow will track your Comp Point earnings throughout March, and pay out a pot of gold with each increment achieved. Each color on the rainbow will have a Comp Point goal, and as you work towards that level, the colours on the rainbow will fill up. Every time you fill up one of the colors, the corresponding pot of gold will light up, and you are a winner! The more Points you earn, the more you will win.
You can receive up to $2000 free cash in total during March Madness by winning all pots of gold on the rainbow. The payouts increase as you earn more, so go on a roll to reach the top prize of $1000 free cash!
Comp Points are automatically earned as you play real money games, so you can simply continue to play your favourite ring games or tournaments and work towards free cash at the same time! Look out for the rainbow Comp Point counter in your player admin, and create your own free cash goal for March!
Newcastle 2008
I been norty. Not been here to post about my very first live experience.
Start from when I left home -
I met Gazthehippy & oioimalloy at Kings Cross in London to get the train to Newcastle. We had an fun trip kinda. Nick (oioi) was doing his usual stirring lol & posting pics on the other forum, something about schlongs and my hand...Say no more apart from it was lies.
Arrived at the hotel & met xxSPRINGTIMExx (Nicola) & halfday (Lee), then more ppl started to appear which was cool although scary. We all went to our rooms and dumped our stuff & met up in the lobby to go reg at the casino.
Back at the hotel the Happy Hour (3-7pm) started and we all took over the bar. Then the booze started, it continued for the rest of the day until we all met at the casino for a meet & greet, then we stopped drinking for maybe 5 minutes and were given a FREE drink chip which soon started us all off again. Met loads of ppl I've never met before. Both Wass players & .commers, we all got on great (I think). After a few more drinks I was really panicking, unsure whether to play or not. But I did it.
It was my first time playing and everyone was just so brilliant. Tricks was a gem on the Friday night. xx
The buffet was awesome, all thanx to Wass.
Love my polo shirt too
Saturday I was a bit more relaxed until they put me on a table with Dogma, Evilluck, MrWass, Doc, few others but mad4cards soon calmed me down lol. Bless I think she done me a favour really by telling them if I bet/raise/call to fold.
I drank mainly coffee to begin with I finished 16th on the Saturday which I was more than proud of. Woulda liked to have got a Hoody but I will next time
Back at the hotel was excellent, started drinking again, £3.50 a bottle of lager . Anyway Danny is nuts. There was only a few of us but then everyone joined us including some Aussies who were cool apart from SuperTed who rubbed Hami up the wrong way & almost experienced a mad irishman's temper. I didnt play any more poker that night but watched everyone in action in the hotel. We were all being watched by the guy who served us all drink etc (miserable sod lol) he was adamant we were getting thrown out the room at 4.30am. But Mrs Welshgit came to the rescue and soon sorted that out.
The SNG was turned into a rebuy for reasons I'm sure someone will explain (Sal).
5.30am bed for me while the others continued.

Important Info about DGS
Suited Pockets was the first to break the about potential issues and problems at DGS several weeks ago. As we predicted, Sportsbookreview.com is reporting the following:
01.08.2008 (10:11 AM CST)
BigJuicyOdds (SBR rating D+) poker network (DGS) folds. BJO states that the provider has closed with licensee and player funds. BJO also tells SBR it will be transferring all poker balances to a new network provider, Dobrosoft. The migration of accounts is expected to take three days. Players can also request a payout or a balance credit in the BigJuicyOdds sportsbook, which is a separately operated. Players with other poker brands may be less fortunate. JunglePoker.com is owned by the Dynamic Gaming network and is not expected to settle accounts. G2Gpoker, a poker-only gaming site, has previously stiffed players as part of the Futurebet Gaming network.
At this time I do not have any further information but I am doing all the research and using my considerable contacts within the industry to be able to give you further answers.
I need to take this opportunity to mention that after my original announcement there was a poker forum owner, who owns several forums, that suggested you play cash tables at the DGS sites to "support the network" even though he knew they were not paying out. This was a self-serving move on his part to make himself look good at the poker sites on the network and the network itself. Your best interests were not thought of by him personally or his forums.
Suited Pockets and I personally took a lot of heat for our stand. That's OK and it was expected. We always look out for YOUR bottom line and your interests. Get your news and get your advice from Suited Pockets and other trustworthy places like Gambling 911 and 2+2. It's time you sent the forums that continued to promote them in such a way and left their banners up a strong message. Do they really believe that promoting sites they KNOW are not paying out is acceptable? It should never be acceptable for you.
Below is the full list of DGS poker sites:
10Large Poker
Big Juicy Odds Poker
Bubba’s Poker
Butcher Poker
FullBet Poker
G2G Poker
Jungle Poker
KingFish Poker
Live For The Flop Poker
LuckyHog Poker
MyPokerSite.com
OK USA Poker
