Danyalsan Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Other ways in to Black Belt London Live You can also get into the London Live event if you win Black Belt Poker's League III, which takes place every Tuesday in our cardroom at 8:30pm. The league will run until March 2. Alternatively, you can also bag a place at the London Live if you win a tournament at the Black Belt Academy, February 13 at the Vic casino in London. There are only 30 spots Check out blackbeltpoker.com for more details on both promotions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodie Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Re: Black Belt Poker - London Live 12-14 March 2010 My bro had some problems to they wouldn't accept his cards it took him like 3 weeks to get it sorted he finally found someone to send him $$ through the player transfer and he just gave them cash. I do find blackbelt impossible to get money on that site. When I set up ny account I was going to try out the grading system but just couldn't get money on there easy so stopped trying. The cashier is a complete joke and should be solved asap imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danyalsan Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Re: Black Belt Poker - London Live 12-14 March 2010 There's less than a week to go until the London Live and Day 1B is now sold out! You can still sign up for Friday's Day 1A though. There are about 50 spaces left but they have been selling quite quickly over the last few days. To those of you who still haven't signed up, get in there while you can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only added value if you have raked your ass and ground your way up the belts over the past few months. MTT wise you will sit in a tourney with no value spots, why pay that money when you can go to a lot of places on the same weekend and find a whole aquarium. Poker players are such glory hunters, just because its Black Belt and the cock has been PMing everyone on facebook for weeks they are signing up to donate.

I agree with you about the value of the tournament bri, however what initially attracted me to the tournament is that there will be great players playing in it (channing is a quality player no matter what kinda bloke he is), nik persaud, marty smyth, akenhead, devilfish. All great players and if I do end up on one of their tables throughout the day(s) :hope then that will be value enough for me as I reckon I'd be able to take a lot away from that! :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
