Titan Poker is one of the best online poker rooms in the business because of their customer service, quality software that offers protection and fun games and more. The casino bonuses are basically the icing on the cake, though it’s pretty good icing.

At Titan Poker, players normally earn points for all money wagered. Those points accumulate and when enough are accrued they can be redeemed for cash. Soon, though, Titan will launch the Big Cash Out promotion. During that promotion, which lasts throughout the month of September, all points earned by playing cash games and poker tournaments can be cashed out more generously. As soon as you reach 1,000 points during the month, you are able to redeem those points for cash. In normal circumstances, you need at least 2,000 points before you can cash out.

The amount of money you get for your points depends on your amount of points. Instead of having a set amount, such as you get a dollar for every 100 points, it varies depending on your point total, with the number of points needed for cash going down as your point total goes up.

For example, if you have 1,000 points you can redeem it for $5, a value of $1 for every 200 points. However, if you rack up 10,000 points you can redeem that for $80, a value of $1 for every 125 points. If you accumulate 80,000 points, you can trade that for $850, which is 94 points for every dollar. If you’re such a good poker player that you accumulate 300,000 points, Titan Casino will give you $4,250 in cash. That’s a value of only 71 points for every dollar.

A full listing of the cash rewards for your loyalty points can be found on the promotions page. To take advantage of the Big Cash Out casino bonus, visit Titan Poker and play some poker during the month of September.

This weekend, liberal bloggers, reporters and other activists got together in Las Vegas for one big evil progressive seminar called the Netroots Nation convention. It was a seminar in which radicals cried that the Obama administration is moving too slowly and hasn’t transformed the country enough, as if they expected us to already be a militarized nation under totalitarian rule at this time. Not quite yet. It was a conference where radicals lamented the lack of a public option (so far) in Obamacare, the fact that America is still a somewhat-capitalist country and the fact that Americans are starting to recognize radical organizations like the Tides Foundation, which basically launders money for radicals.

Even in a convention based on pushing agendas with which I couldn’t possibly disagree more, there was some positives, the main one being discussion on online poker. Professional poker player Andy Bloch, current Full Tilt sponsor and a former member of the MIT blackjack team, spoke about the industry. At the seminar, Bloch called on the government to legalize and regulate online poker, stating that denying Americans the ability to play the game violates their freedom of choice. Pro-freedom speeches aren’t exactly the norm at progressive conventions like Netroots, but the people were willing to hear him out.

Bloch said that a ban on online poker goes against freedom of choice and a free Internet and stressed that the activity is a mainstream one that people of all political stripes watch on TV. If it’s too dangerous for people to do, why are ESPN, Bravo, E! and countless other channels allowed to televise it?

Since he was speaking to radicals at Netroots, Bloch was sure to also take on a progressive tone regarding online poker. He talked about the additional revenue the government could generate and the responsibility of the government to protect people from themselves. Bloch said that the government is “forgoing billions in tax revenue when our budgets are most in need.” He also said that by not regulating the online poker industry, the government is “ignoring their responsibility to protect children and other vulnerable members of our society.”

Never mind the fact that protecting people from themselves is not the role of the government. Putting that aside, Bloch made good points at the convention, particularly when he criticized the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) and pointed out that, despite the federal government’s opinion, some form of poker is legal in 48 out of 50 American states.

And that is where I agree with Bloch. If the federal government just gets out of the way and lets states handle the question of online poker, things will be a lot better. I imagine most states will opt to legalize online poker and many will tax it for additional revenue. An activity like poker was never meant to have federal intervention and that intervention must stop.

The World Series of Poker is the biggest tournament in the “sport” of poker. It has the World Series title for a reason. This is the big one where the best players compete for the biggest money. It’s televised internationally and I saw it in the movie Rounders before I knew anything about professional poker players or big poker tournaments. Playing in the World Series of Poker is a big deal.

Most poker players, however, never get the opportunity to sit with the big boys and play in that tournament. For some, it’s a dream that is never realized. Titan Poker is offering ordinary players a chance at glory, a chance to earn a seat at the biggest table in the business. That’s right. Titan Poker is sending players to the World Series of Poker.

Right now Titan Poker is holding the World Challenge 2010 tournament. In this tournament, players have the chance to prove that they are the best poker player in their country and then represent their nation in the World Series of Poker. At the end of the poker tournament, the five best players from around the world will each win a $13,000 package to the 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event, held in Las Vegas.

The World Challenge 2010 poker tournament has two rounds of qualifying tournaments. There are multiple dates for both rounds. There are 12 different countries and regions represented on the leader board. The top players in the first round advance to the second round. After the second round, the top 200 players advance to the final 8 tournaments, where players compete for the top 5 spots, where they win a trip to Vegas to play at the World Series of Poker.

Players have up until June 20 to participate in the qualifying rounds and take a shot at the grand prize. See the promotions page for details. To take part in the tournament and give yourself a chance at a seat at the table during the World Series of Poker Main Event, visit Titan Poker today.
