Chips are how you win the night's cash. Points are how you win a seat at the season finale. Both are free to earn — here's how they work.
Every player starts with 18,000 in chips: five white, five red, ten black, and one green.
Being early, being new, and bringing friends all pay. Here's every bonus:
Arrive 15 minutes earlyGet to the venue with time to spare and it shows in your stack.
Be seated before announcementsIn your chair when the director speaks? Bonus.
Birthday monthPlaying during your birthday month is worth celebrating — with chips.
New playersFirst time with the league? Welcome gift, on the felt.
Bring a new playerIntroduce someone new to the league and start deep.
Regular Points (RP) track your poker results. They're the backbone of Tournament of Champions qualification.
Bonus Points (BP) reward podium finishes and supporting the venues that host us. You need both kinds to reach the championship.
Lose with aces full or better to an even bigger hand? That's a bad beat — and it pays 1,000 bonus points. It won't fix your night, but it helps.
Knocked out early? The Second Chance table keeps you in the game — and in the points.
