Black Belt Poker allows you to experience the casino life directly from your desktop computer. If you want to learn the secrets of poker or if you already are an experienced player Black Belt Poker gives you the chance to have fun and win the pots you dreamed of. Hey ive just been looking at black belt poker and was atracted to the idea iof a belt system and of the chance of getting sponsorship but had a look ar.
Following a successful showing at last year's event, Black Belt Poker once again ambushed London's Leicester Square as Poker in the Park returned for a third consecutive year.
Located two tents away from legendary boxer Evander 'Real Deal' Holyfield, Black Belt Poker were packing a punch of our own as we offered tuition from 2010 Luton GUKPT Champion Neil Channing, as well as sponsored pros Gavin Hall, Kevin Williams, Jerome Bradpiece, Rob Jarrett-Smith and Adam Latimer.
A number of familiar faces from the Black Belt Poker community were present, including former Graders Andy Brisland, Carey Hollick and Joe Roberts, as well as community members Tom Drew, Dean Watson and Chris Poutashi. However, we also introduced the site to plenty of new faces, many of whom will hopefully become a part of what is UK poker's fastest growing social network.
When he wasn't sharing his pearls of wisdom or kissing babies' heads, Channing was hosting a Q&A in the opposing tent, answering any' impromptu' question that the audience felt the urge to throw at him from his experiences with staking to his many, many TV appearances. Also pencilled in was Blue Belt and Enlightenment Sensei Kevin Williams who gave a lecture on G Bucks midway through the day.
Poker in the Park was a huge success for Black Belt Poker as we were able to open ourselves up to an even wider audience, and continue to showcase the numerous benefits to playing on the site. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended, and we hope that you enjoyed the tuition on offer. If you have a thirst for more, then be sure to check out our new Enlightenment Training Programme.
