Become a Hero of Poker

We've just added a new review to our list of poker room reviews, CentreBet Poker, and what a room it is. Be sure to select Poker Room Review from the menu above and then skip down to the bottom to read the review—but AFTER you read about one of the coolest promotions on the net, the Hero of Poker.

This promotion has ended but it is still worth writing about for a few reasons. First, it shows some real creativity by the folks at CentreBet, that they really wanted to get the players involved in something fun and special. Second, they will hopefully run it again, and this is one promo you want to win.

During the Heroes of Poker tournaments there were four Villians that could be captured by players, earning them a bounty. There is a story and villain profiles on the site, complete with comic artwork. But the real draw here is what the ultimate Hero of Poker earns as champion.

First up, a pair of golden dog tags with the player's name engraved upon them. The current hero is ZichZach, who is now the proud owner of the golden tags. Next, ZichZach, as the winner, has a table named after him. That's right, long in to CentreBet Poker now and you can sit down at the $1/$2 ZichZach table and play. Which brings us to the third reward.

ZichZach gets to keep 100% of the rake earned on his table, for an entire year. That means that every time someone plays a hand on the ZichZach table, ZichZach makes money! He or she can earn up to $20k this way. That is certinaly a hero of a deal!
