During happy hours, the number of points increases by 1.5 times. Prizes are awarded in cash dollars (the currency of the poker room, which can only be spent on purchases at cash tables).

By participating in the daily Hold’em and Omaha cash game races, you can win a share of the total prize pool of $ 20K and $ 25K respectively. Points are awarded according to the number of rake hands.

Among 6+ Hold’em players, $ 5K is played out every day as part of the leaderboard. There are 9 categories in total, depending on the limit. The number of points depends on the number of raked hands played. During happy hours, points are awarded 1.5 times faster. Prizes are cash dollars.

The daily Flip & Go leaderboard raffles for $ 5K. A point is awarded for each registration. The number of points is multiplied by one of three coefficients if you get the following combinations in your hands first: straight and flush – x2, set – x3, straight flush – x4. For example, if you bought 5 tickets and made a straight flush with your first hand, you will receive 20 points.
