The Poker Cartel will try to improve on their two second place finishes in the last two forum challenges at Royal Vegas Poker by ousting the Poker Analysis forum led by Ellen and Dean. The Poker Cartel has provided an added incentive to the already lucrative freeroll at Royal Vegas Poker scheduled for Dec. 2 by providing an additional prize of poker chip sets for the top three finishers that register to play for the pokercartel.com team. The chip sets are made up of 500 - 11.5 gram clay poker chips in a lined aluminum case. It includes a dealer button, 2 deck of cards and 5 dice.
The Royal Vegas Poker Forum Challenge is a $5000 freeroll tournament that pits all the poker forums against one another to see who has the best players. PokerCartel.com Poker Analysis Forum have finished first and second in the last two challenges and look to go head-to-head again as they have steadily distanced themselves from the competition over the last six months.
The Cartel prides itself on providing more tangible prizes for its members than any other poker forum and this is a perfect example of the Cartel going above and beyond the norm to provide opportunities to win prizes beyond the prize money provided in their tournaments.
Another way that the Cartel goes the extra mile in providing for its members and the community is exemplified by their giving to people caught in a bind by the recent hurricanes that struck the coasts of Louisiana and Texas. The Cartel provided some members much needed assistance by sending them debit cards to help them through the crisis inflicted by Hurricane Katrina and supplied some transportation assistance during the evacuation along the Texas coast during Hurricane Rita. The owners of the Cartel are well aware that there are more important things than poker, but they just are not as much fun. No one is spared during a natural disaster and the help provided was much appreciated.
"I think we got more from giving than they did from the little bit we were able to give," Michael Braxdale, owner of Pokercartel.com stated when quizzed about their efforts at a local charity event. "It is kind of embarrassing to talk about, because we really didn't intend for this to show up on the radar screen. We would like to keep our efforts low key."
In addition to these items pokercartel.com provides a freeroll league for its members with about 20 tournaments a month. If you would like to participate all you need to do is to join their forum accessed at pokercartel.com on the web, get the passwords from the calendar and join them. There is no cost to participants.
If you would like to join them in the Challenge you can contact them at and they will be glad to tell you how to enter.
Their relationship with sites like Poker Listings, Titan Poker, Absolute Poker, Noble Poker, Full Tilt Poker and others makes them a one stop shop for your online poker fix; for both the serious and recreational player alike.
For my money the pokercartel.com poker forum is the only place to be if you like to play poker online.
