Bodog’s King Of The Felt Promotion Reaches Fever Pitch
In the course of the last several months Bodog’s King Of The Felt online poker promotion has become one of the most volatile, exciting events in the site’s history and its first truly great competitor has come front and center in recent weeks. King of the Felt is the ultimate poker player showdown in which players are rewarded for playing in Bodog Sit and Go events. If you compete in and cash out in three or more Sit and Go tournaments, you are entered into a weekly draw where you get to compete for the title in a $1,000 heads-up match against the current King of the Felt. If you manage to keep the crown for long enough, they get a shot at the World Series of Poker Main Event.
This week sees the winningest player in the history of the promotion return to the playing field as Peeps returns to take on his next challenger. He has won nine straight heads-up challenged, earning him a tidy $11,500 and today he’ll go against millhouse11 for his tenth consecutive win. This is the deciding moment in his reign as King of the Felt because the next step for Peeps is going toe-to-toe against a Bodog pro for a seat at the 2011 World Series of Poker Main Event.
However, even if Peeps wins that WSOP seat, the King of the Felt promotion continues. Bodog’s rated system means that you’ll be entered into the weekly draw more than once if you exceed the required three qualifying cashes in your quest for the crown. Finish in the money in six tournaments? You get two entries into the draw. Beat the bubble nine or more times times in Sit and Go tourney action at Bodog and you’ve got three entries.
Here’s the thing, though: it’s more than just competing for the throne. Bodog’s giving players that go the distance something extra. If you cash six times, you’ve got a free seat in a $1,000 freeroll tournament and nine or more cashes will get you an additional seat in a $500 bonus freeroll.
If you’ve not tried playing at Bodog, the poker room offers players the games and support they need. They give players an aggressive 110% bonus on their first deposit , meaning you can have up to $1100 extra in your bankroll and for players who like their action big, the site’s regular guaranteed tournaments offer some of the best action going. Every night, there’s $4,000, $5,000 and $10,000 guaranteed tournaments. Sundays are packed with even more events with three $10,000 guaranteed events and a massive $100,000 guaranteed tournament with a $150+12 buy-in. Add in the freerolls, Sit and Gos and smaller tournaments being hosted by Bodog and you can see why so many players are loyal to the room that gives them the games they want, when they want them.
