Carbon Poker offering $100k through August Race for Riches

By RTR Dennis

Carbon Poker is bringing their popular Race for Riches promotion back for another month in August. This means Carbon will be paying out $100,000 through four different leaderboards races. If you’re interested in earning a piece of the $100k, here are the main details you should know before getting started.

Race for Riches Basics
To move up the leaderboard and on towards huge cash rewards, players need to earn VIP points in Carbon Poker ring games and tournaments. As long as you place within the top 400 during any race period, you’ll receive a cash reward.

August Race Dates
Race 1: Aug. 1st-7th, $25,000 prize pool
Race 2: Aug. 8th-15th, $25,000 prize pool
Race 3: Aug. 16th-22nd, $25,000 prize pool
Race 4: Aug. 23rd-30th, $25,000 prize pool

Prizes
Seeing as how 400 players will share in $25k every week, there’s a wide range of prizes available. The smallest cash payout is $10, which is paid out to places 351-400. Here’s a look at how much money the top 10 positions receive:

1. $2,000
2. $1,300
3. $900
4. $700
5. $500
6. $400
7. $350
8. $300
9. $275
10. $250

Point Multipliers
You can get a major boost during the Race for Riches promo by taking advantage of tournament point multipliers. There are 10 designated multiplier tournaments, and each one you play results in a 0.1 multiplier. For example, if you played in three of the tourneys below, you’d get a 0.3 multiplier; assuming you collected 1,000 VIP points during any single race period, you’d have 1,300 total points. Now here’s a look at the multiplier tournaments:

Daily at 15:00 – $4,000 Guaranteed (2 Rebuys/1 Add-on), $30 + $3 buy-in
