The excitement in the $15,000 Carbon Poker League is starting to heat up, so make sure you download Carbon Poker and don’t miss out on another moment of the action!
The Carbon League is still anyone’s game as the top of the leader board remains unchanged, while a few players have managed to gain valuable points to start making their way up the ladder.
The winner of last week’s weekly $5.00+$1.00 ($100 added) Friday was dreaminder and they took down all the cash and the 30 Carbon League Points. The win put ”dreaminder” on a total of 40 points to see them sit just outside of the top 10.
The likes of pbokss, Rogerdelpk and basker2b3 also had impressive finishes in the event, with each of those players solidifying their place on the leaderboard.
It is still xxMTVxx who sits atop the leaderboard after they managed to take down huge league points in the first of three VIP freerolls which will take place during the league.

While xxMTVxx may have a lot of league points, they will not be hard to catch if players start taking part in each of the weekly league events. The weekly $3.00+$0.50 ($50 added) Tuesday event awards points as seen below, while the Friday event awards double points!

With two weekly league events and still two VIP freerolls remaining, there are no excuses for players not to start taking part in the $15K Carbon League.
