Details on the 10th Anniversary Promotional Events
On September 8, CardsChat will celebrate its 10th year in existence. The popular poker forum has already passed two million posts, an impressive feat on its own merit. To show appreciation for members of the site, CardsChat will be hosting a ton of promotions and giving away loads of free cash, with all members invited to participate.
“This is an exciting milestone for CardsChat and I’m thrilled that we’ll be able to give back to our community through so many action-packed promotions. Our members are known as the friendliest and most insightful in the poker world and this anniversary celebration is a reflection of their enthusiasm and love for the game.”
Things will kick-off on Sept. 1 with the Scavenger Hunt. There will be $500 in prizes shared with the top 5 participants, as follows:
1st – $150
2nd – $125
3rd – $100
4th – $75
5th – $50
That same day, a Treasure Hunt will begin. Players will want to collect enough poker chips to buy a key to the exclusive CardsChat Treasure Chest. Not every key will be a winner, as only one lucky player will hold the key that unlocks the chest, which contains an Apple iPad Mini.
Then from September 7-21, there will be a “Where in the World is CardsChat?” Facebook Photo contest. This promotion offers up $250 in prizes. Members of the site are encouraged to follow CardsChat on Facebook if they do not already do so, and stay tuned for more details.
Tournament Promotions: $10K+ in Cash Prizes
While the CardsChat Decathlon of the Decade kicked off back in June and saw all qualifiers conclude last week, the $300 No-Limit Hold’em Freeroll will be played on September 7. The top 10 players from each of the previous freeroll qualifier events won a spot in this tournament. Random prizes will also be awarded, so be sure to root for your favorite CardsChat members as they battle it out for their shares of free cash and loot.

Finally, there will be an exclusive $600 satellite for the America’s Card Room $1 Million Guaranteed tournament.
