Some things are just so beautiful that you just have to act like a jackass about them.

With all the great promotions, satellites, guaranteed tournaments and reward programs we’ve got running here at Cake Poker, we think we’ve really got something to shout about. In fact, we might be so bold as to say that we’re Giant Double Rainbow Excited!

Here’s a quick rundown of what’s currently making us laugh and cry ecstatically:

Cash Grab – Build your Stacks faster for monster rewards with an extra 50% added to the Gold Stack Super Turbo Bonus until the end of July. There’s no other way to describe Cash Grab other than Giant Double Rainbow Awesome!

Match & Win – This new Gold Card promotion pays out cash and prizes for redeeming matching Gold Cards to each month’s prizes. Check the complete Match & Win rules then check the game board in the Cake Poker software in the Gold Card tab under Rewards. Just try to keep your tears of joy off the keyboard.

Turbo Gold Cards – Conveniently running from now through August, Gold Cards are being handed out TWICE the normal speed. It would be enough to make a grown man cry before you even factor in that all these extra cards can be used in the Match & Win program! Oh my God, this is so intense!

$200K Guaranteed – Every Sunday at 5PM ET Cake Poker runs the $100,000 Guaranteed tournament. The last Sunday of every month see that guarantee doubled to $200,000 with satellites starting for as little as $3 or even 3 Gold Chips. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?!

Satellites to Live Tournaments – Right now Cake’s got daily satellites for both the English Poker Open in London and the Canadian Open Poker Championships in Calgary.

Now, don’t be shy. Let the tears flow. It’s okay, we see how beautiful it is too.

Online poker is tasting particularly good at Cake this month.

Cake Poker’s Gold Spree is back as of last Saturday. For those who haven’t participated in it before, it works like this:

Cake assigns every player a target number of Frequent Player Points (FPPs). You can find your personal FPP target by loading th Cake Poker software and looking under the "My Account" tab. The goal is to get at least that many FPPs by May 31. Hitting your target will give you a seat in a $25,000 Kamikaze with a top prize of $5,000. Kamikazes are pure luck tournaments where every player is forced all-in on every hand until there is a winner.

For those who surpass the target they will receive bonus Gold Chips for their play from June 1 – 18. Beating the target by 50% will see you awarded with 100% more Gold Chips during the bonus period, while doubling the target will get you 300% more Gold Chips.

Learn more about Gold Spree and if you haven’t already, you can download Cake’s free online poker software and start building your FPPs today.

Other online poker promotions currently running at Cake Poker include the $150K Points Race and the Door Crasher tournaments. Too much poker goodness for just one month? Not if you’re the online poker site that’s dedicate to rewarding its players the most.

Week 2 of the Cake Poker $150K Points Race rewards players with double the points.

We’re halfway through Week 2 of Cake Poker’s $150K Points Race and there’s still plenty of time to get your slice of the weekly $25K prize pool that is being shared by the top 200 spots on the leaderboard.

If you got creamed last week you’ll still have a chance at the $50K for the monthly winners as points earned this week are worth twice as much as last week.

The Cake Poker $150K Point Race Week 1 is extra long so take advantage!

If you didn’t know already, this April is full of joy as the $150K Point Race is rewarding over 1,000 players.

With the $150K Point Race, every week in April the top 200 players on the leaderboard will be served a slice of delicious victory cash from a $25K weekly prize pool. Points will be added up at the end of the month and the top 300 players will share in a $50K prize pool.

This week is special though since it’s an extra long week with regards to the $150K Point Race. So you have until the end of April 9th to play some poker and maximize your points earned.

And remember, if you come late to the party you’ve still got a great shot at not only each weekly prize but the overall $50K Monthly prize. Points are increased in value each week in terms of final leaderboard so next week points will be worth double, week 3 points will be worth triple and week 4 points quadruple. So even if you show up late you can still take down the remaining weekly prizes as well as the monthly prize.

The $150K Point Race in April will award over 1,000 cash prizes.

This April Cake Poker is running a $150K Frequent Player Point Race that will award 1,100 positions with their share of the tasty poker prize pool. The $150K is broken into four different $25K races, one for each week of April, and one $50K race that is based on the combined scores from the previous four.

The value of the poker points earned from the races increases each week so that players who start competing late still have a shot at the final $50K Race.

Each of the weekly FPP races will award $25K across 200 places with top spot earning $1,500. The Monthly Race awards 300 players a share of $50K with $3,500 going to the top poker racer of month.

Cake Poker has its first 1st AND Ten $10K Freeroll winner.

Over the past few weeks many of Cake Poker’s 36-player 6-max turbo sit-n-go tournaments were beefed up into 1st AND Ten SNGs in honor of the start of football season.

1st AND Ten SNGs gave top finishers tickets to one of four $10,000 freerolls, the first of which ran last night. It was alamoDave who went on to take the top spot and the $1,145 that went with the win.

AlamoDave only played in two of the 1st AND Ten SNGs and won one of them to earn himself the freeroll ticket.

Congratulations to alamoDave and everyone else who cashed in the $10K freeroll last night.

There are still three $10,000 freerolls left coming up on each consecutive Sunday so keep tackling those 1st AND TEN SNGs for your shot at freeroll money in addition to the regular SNG prize pools.

Cake Poker's Gold Card Race was won by jotun665 again last week. Will this week be different?

No, this isn’t a repeat from the week before, or the week before that, or the week before that, etc. Jotun665 won the Cake Poker Gold Card Race again last week so yes, that’s another $1,000 for him. Didn’t he learn to share?

Well, so far this week it’s shaping up like jotun665 might have some competition. He’s currently in second place with 1,024 miles on the heels of royalgeek with 1,226 while Sick Wit It! has a respectable lead with 1,623.

So far jotun665 has won every single week since the promotion has started with the exceptions of Week 1 and Week 3 when he got 8th and 3rd respectively.
