New poker room attracts players with promotions
Cool Hand Poker is a newly-established online poker room, launched about a month ago by Belle Rock Entertainment and powered by Microgaming.
As well as welcome bonuses, Cool Hand Poker is using a leader board campaign to attract new players to the site.The welcome bonus, however, is not to be sniffed at – 100% up to $350. The leader boards are well worth your time, though, as they can earn you far more than $350. In most Leader Board races, it is only the top point collectors who receive perks and prizes from their efforts. At Cool Hand Poker, virtually anyone can win big.
Those who don’t have the time to play 100,000 hands a week to make the top spots usually suffer in these competitions but Cool Hand Poker offers $25 to anyone who can make a significant jump in points. There are also weekly and monthly Leader Board competitions.
The top weekly leader board competitors can win one of 16 MP3 players, while the top 100 in the monthly leader boards earn a piece of $5,000.

I see that they have just launched a new promotion which involves holding a freeroll every hour for the next week as well.

They are right, 100% up to $350 is nothing to sniffle about. I know some people that would do that just to make sure the place is legit, and when it comes back that is it they would be there nonstop for a good 4-5 hours playing.

I like the idea of a leader board. Its the sort of thing that drives many people to work (or play) all the harder.

I don't usually like leader boards as a more casual gambler really doesn't stand a chance. Looks like Cool Hand Poker has found a way to include players like me in the competitions, even though it's for a small prize.
