To participate in Money Tree, all you have to do is keep on doing the same old by playing in cash games, multi-table tournaments, and sit and go’s.  As you play in these games, you will accumulate VIP points, which will land you somewhere on the VIP Leaderboard.

But what’s cool about this leaderboard is that you don’t need to keep up with the beasts of the online poker world to get a prize.  In fact, the prize money you earn from the Money Tree promotion depends totally on YOU.

As you play in April, your leaderboard points will be tracked throughout the month.  And depending on how many leaderboard points you accumulate on your 10^th best day (as far as acquiring VIP points goes), you will be paid $1 for every 10 VIP points.

There is no limit to the amount of money you’ll be given in the Money Tree promotion; it all just depends on how much you make on your 10^th ranked day.  So if you were able to earn 300 VIP points on the 10^th ranked day, you’d get an additional $30.

To ensure that you qualify for the Money Tree promo, you need to earn at least 10 VIP points on 10 separate days in April.  As long as you’re able to do this, you will be paid some money for the 10^th ranked day.  Start playing now and earn your free cash!

Check out the March Madness page for full details on how you can win yourself $500/day in real cash.

During the month of March, every real cash ring game, SnG and MTT you play helps you work your way through 10 different levels of Hoop Prizes. Hit a new level choose 1 of 5 hoops to reveal your prize. It’s that simple.

Win bonus prizes all month long.

Pretty soon, when football is hibernating until preseason rolls out in August, you’ll need something to do on the weekend! It’s not nice enough to go outside yet, and I know that butt-groove you’ve got going on the couch isn’t something you want to pass up anytime soon. Poker will be there for you, just like it always has.

And, as you obviously know, CarbonPoker wants to make this special weekend a little bit better. That’s right… BONUS CODES FOR POKER DEPOSITS. We’ve got two of them – and when you use either bonus code, you’ll get a Double-Up-SnG coupon for the special SuperBowl SnGs (running all Sunday long).

As I told you before, the Carbon Poker Winter Olympics has kicked off. Check out the specialty ring games, tournaments, SnG and MTTs for your shot at Olympic glory.

Pictured to the left is a sneak peak of the table design.

Can’t you just picture yourself sitting at one of those final tables and winning a live WSOP seat? Sounds good, right? Get out there, earn some points, and make it happen.

Since February is so short, be sure to get started on these leader boards before too long!

GL at the tables.

And the best part? No spandex required… or frost bite.

Basically, there are two leader board events to play in: the Olympics Alpine Poker Championship (Multi-Table Tournament Leader Board) and the Nordic Combined Poker Championship (VIP Point accumulation leader board). Play in one or both. Seriously… it’s up to you. What am I, your mom?

What’s up for grabs? I’m glad you asked:

Compete in the final tournaments of each event for thousands of dollars, Live WSOP Seats, exclusive Olympic accolades and CarbonPoker coupons. To me, that’s a lot better than freezing outside, or throwing myself down an icetrack at 150MPH. But again, you could do both. It’s up to you.

Check out the official Carbon Olympics page for the breakdown of prizes, events and leader board spots.

Winning cash at the poker tables is great, but we’re giving you a shot at real, live prizes.

This is a great way to find prizes for those hard-to-buy-for friends and family… including yourself.

How Do I Get In?

Every time you deposit during the month of December, you’re going to get an entry into one of these great Swagrolls. Trust me, it’ll be worth it.

What Can I Win?

Maybe ‘what can’t I win?’ would be a better question. These swagrolls are packed with electronics, jerseys, coupons, cameras and more. Check out the list in the picture. These awesome prizes will be shipped to your door from us.

When Are They?

• Monday – 18:15
• Tuesday – 14:15

The 2009 Xmas promo features tons of prizes, cash, swag, coupons and more.

It runs all December long and to get into the action, all you need to do is click the “Activate Santa” link in your player admin. From there, you’ll be working your way through Santa’s Checklist to win throughout the month. Basically, go through the ‘tasks’ and you will be on easy street. There are a few tough ones, so watch out for clues.

As you can see, you can win over $17,500 in cash at CarbonPoker this month!

There’s just one more thing to do before we fully dive into December: play the Turkey Grand Slam.

This Saturday, December 5th, the top 128 players on the Turkey Grand Slam Leaderboard will face off in a unique starting stack heads up tournament. The best part? The jackpot is going to weigh in at a hefty $28,995. Over $28K was built up over the month from a meager seed of $2,500 from CarbonPoker.

As you know, half the funds from the special Turkey SnGs kept building up this massive total. Nicely done, guys.

Congrats to the top 5 finishers in the Leaderboard. They’re definitely favorites to win, but it a tourney like this, anything can happen.
