Points are awarded to players for various reasons, most common reasons are tournament rank, bounties, high hand of the tournament, referrals, and anything else that comes up along the way. The following tables show the points we give away.
Nightly Tournaments
Nightly tournament are calculated on a variable point scale which is determined by the number of registered players, the rank you finish, and a preset rank multiplier.

Example: 50 players are registered for the tournament and you win, points are then calculated by the rank multiplier –x- number of players registered. In this example your rank multiplier is 15 and the number of players registered is 75, so your point calculation would be: 15 x 50 = 750.
Because of this, it is in a player’s best interest to help spread the word and bring in new players. Remember if you bring in a friend to be sure and notify the tournament director and both of you will receive a 1k bonus chip.
Bounties
If you are chosen as a bounty you will receive points for being a bounty and whoever knocks you out of the tournament receives the same amount of points.
If there is a cash bounty no points are awarded, the same also goes for an invitational bounty, only a bounty hunter receives bounty points in the invitational.

A qualifying high hand must meet the following requirements.
- 1. You must have a "natuaral" high hand, this means both of your hole cards must play. (example: Your Hand - AA | Board - AAQ49)
- 2. The hand must reach a showdown, this means you must be called down to the river and current hand(s) exposed.
- 3. A tournament director MUST see the hand, and acknowledge that it was qualified.
A high hand is only valid until it has been beaten by another hand that is higher within the same tournament.
