The Board

To top the Leader Board and win prizes, you need to earn points. Every time you play in a tournament, the number of players, the buy-in and your finish rank determine exactly how these points are distributed and where you'll end up on the board. Roughly who gets points? The top 20% of finishers per tournament.

To earn rank and points on the Leader Board:

• you must enter a tournament that's open to the public
• it must not be a "Qualifier" for another tournament
• it must not be a Sit and Go.
