Carbon Poker just keeps getting bigger and bigger, and nowhere is this more evident than with the fact that Carbon’s monthly guaranteed tournament prize pools have jumped from $3 million to $4 million. And what’s nice is that these tournaments offer a lot of value because there are plenty of overlays.

Take the Sunday $50,000 Guaranteed for instance; players will share a $50k prize pool no matter if there are 60 or 600 players who pay the $100 + $9 buy-in to play in this event. The same goes for the Saturday $12,500 Guaranteed, where players often get a favorable overlay in this $30 + $3 tournament. Of course, $65,000 in weekly guaranteed tournaments doesn’t comprise the bulk of Carbon’s $4 million schedule as there is plenty more happening here each day.

You can expect to find at least a $2,000 guaranteed tournament running every hour in a variety of formats such as freezeout, bounty, shootout, deep stacks, all-in or fold, add-ons and rebuys. And what’s nice is that you can use your VIP points to buy into these tournaments, which definitely saves you some money on buy-in fees.

Here is a quick look at some of the daily tournaments you will find amongst Carbon’s $4 million monthly schedule:

$3,500 guaranteed @ 21:30 – $15 + $1.50 buy-in (1,650 points)
$7,500 guaranteed @ 21:00 – $30 + $3.00 (3,300 points)
$3,000 guaranteed @ 20:00 – $3 + $0.30 (330 points)
$7,500 guaranteed @ 19:15 – $20 + $2.00 (2,200 points)
$3,000 guaranteed @ 17:30 – $10 + $1.00 (1,100 points)
$2,000 guaranteed @ 14:30 – $20 + $2.00 (2,200 points)
$2,000 guaranteed @ 13:30 – $10 + $1.00  (1,100 points)
$2,000 guaranteed @ 11:00 – $4 + $0.40 (440 points)
$2,000 guaranteed @ 10:00 – $15 + $1.50 (1,650 points)
$2,500 guaranteed @ 0:30 – $20 + $2.00  (2,200 points)

Carbon Poker already gives out tons of money each month to players through freerolls. However, they recently decided to up the amount of free poker money they give out each month to $50,000! You can compete for a large chunk of this money as soon as you sign up at Carbon and make a deposit since they give new depositing players the chance to play in 14 freerolls worth $500 each. These are the $500 Depositor freerolls that are normally reserved for regular depositors, but you have 14 chances to play as a new player.

In addition to the numerous freerolls that new depositors get to play in, Carbon is also running five $200 freerolls every single day. The only thing that you need to do to get involved in these freerolls is watch the Carbon Poker lobby for start times, and register before the freeroll begins.

One more way that Carbon is giving players a chance to win free money is through their VIP freerolls. Depending on your level within the VIP program, you will get to play in a big freeroll, and here is a look at that schedule:

Earth Members: $500 Monthly Freeroll
Wind Members: $1,000 Monthly Freeroll
Fire Members: $1,500 Monthly Freeroll
Water Members: $2,500 Monthly Freeroll
Ether Members: $3,500 Monthly Freeroll

As you earn VIP points by playing in real money games at Carbon, you will advance up the VIP levels and on towards major prizes. Of course, you won’t have to worry about the real money games for a little while with all of the free cash that we’re giving out each month! So sign up, register for some freerolls, and start earning your chunk of the $50k that’s given away in monthly freerolls.

If you haven’t signed up at Carbon Poker yet, but you’re still pondering the decision, then take this into account: Carbon is giving all new depositors the opportunity to earn lots of extra money!

Anybody who signs up at Carbon and makes a deposit will be eligible for the New Depositors Cash Race. In this promotion, you have 30 days to earn as many VIP points as possible; the more points you earn during the 30 days, the more money you’ll earn in the Cash Chase.

To earn points towards the New Depositors Cash Chase, all you need to do is play in MTT’s, SNG”s, and cash games before the 30 days are up. Here is a quick look at how much money you can earn depending on your VIP points accumulated:

VIP Points      Cash Prize
500                   $5
1,000               $11
2,500               $30
3,500               $50
5,000              $75
7,500              $120
10,000            $175
15,000            $280
25,000            $500

As mentioned before, all you have to do is play in real money games and tournaments at Carbon to participate in the Cash Race. Even if you don’t get the cash prize of your dreams, you can still use the VIP points for other things like getting into tournaments for free, cashing them in for money, and purchasing things from the VIP Store.

Some of the things that you can get from the store include expensive electronics (PS3′s, Wii’s, digital cameras, flatscreen TV’s, iPods), poker accessories, live poker seats (WPT, WSOP, Aussie Millions, and APPT), and expensive jewelry.

In any case, get to Carbon so you can earn money in their New Depositors Cash Race, and also use the points for other great things.

It’s always great when you can make money in poker without having to spend a dime. And Carbon Poker is giving you five chances every day to win free money through their daily freerolls.

The daily freerolls all offer a $200 prize pool, and the best part of the deal is that they’re all free – no hassles or back-end points buy-ins involved. In addition to this, you’ll also be able to enjoy a variety of different freerolls instead of just playing the same old Texas Hold’em tournaments. Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha, and H.O.R.S.E. tournaments are all offered, as you can see from the following schedule:

20:00 NL Holdem: $200 prize pool, and this freeroll is open to all players
18:00 PL Omaha: $200 prize pool, and this freeroll is open to all players
12:00 H.O.R.S.E: $200 prize pool, and this freeroll is open to all players
6:00 NL Holdem: $200 prize pool, and this freeroll is open to all players
0:00 NL Holdem: $200 prize pool, and this freeroll is open to all players

As long as you have a Carbon Poker account, you can jump in these freerolls and compete for some nice cash prizes. Just make sure that you’re registered before the tournaments’ listed starting times.

In addition to the daily freerolls, you’ll also be able to play in VIP freerolls based on what status you are in the VIP club. All of these freerolls take place on the last Saturday of each month, and here is a look at that schedule:

15:00 Saturday NL Holdem: $500 Monthly Freeroll open to Earth members
15:00 Saturday NL Holdem: $1,000 Monthly Freeroll open to Wind members
15:00 PM Saturday NL Holdem: $1,500 Monthly Freeroll open to Fire members
15:00 PM Saturday NL Holdem: $2,500 Monthly Freeroll open to Water members
15:00 PM Saturday NL Holdem: $3,500 Monthly Freeroll open to Ether members

With millions of dollars in guaranteed tournaments every month at Carbon Poker, there’s already plenty of money to be won here. However, Carbon is sweetening the deal even further by paying out an additional $20,000 every month to the top multi-table tournament players. Want your share of this money? Then start playing in as many MTT’s as you can so you’re eligible for the Tourney King title.

The more MTT’s you play, the more points you’ll earn towards either the High Limit Leaderboard ($20 tourney buy-ins or higher) or the Low Limit Leaderboard (tourneys with less than $20 buy-ins). If you earn enough points to finish in the top 250 players of either the High or Low Limit Leaderboard, you’ll get to play in a big cash-filled tournament at the end of the month.

Here’s how the top 5 prizes look for the top players in both tournaemnts:

High Limit tournament

1st place: $3,000

2nd place: $1,800

3rd place: $1,200

4th place: $600

5th place: $450

Low Limit tournament

1st place: $1,500

2nd place: $900

3rd place: $600

4th place: $300

5th place: $225

Besides the cash prizes, there will be plenty of tournament tickets that will be given away. And if you’re interested as to how the points are determined, the formula is simple: just take your buy-in X the entrants, then divide by your finish. So if you placed 10th in a $10 buy-in, 100-player tournament, you’d get 100 points ([$10 X 100]/10). Keep in mind that you also get extra points for making the final table of a tournament too.

The next Tourney King race starts at the beginning of February, so start hitting the tables right away so you can move up the leaderboards!
