Leaderboard Pools

Leaderboard Pools give players the option to compete for extra prizes by earning leaderboard points.

To enter, simply register for a Leaderboard Pool found in the tournament lobby before the start of Event #1 on September 22nd.

At the conclusion of the series, 100% of the funds collected will be paid to the player in each Leaderboard Pool that accumulates the most points. There are no fees taken out of the pool.

Leaderboard Pools are available in a range of buy-ins for players of all levels. Players are free to join as many pools as they wish.

Progressive Knockouts and Bounties

When you eliminate a player in a progressive knockout event you will be awarded 50% of their current bounty, and the remaining 50% will then be placed on your head.

In a bounty tournament each player has an equal bounty value on their head. When you eliminate a player you will be awarded 100% of their bounty.
