How to join the promotion

- Each leaderboard counts the first 200 hands per day.
At day's end, players who managed to earn the most points will get their share of the $20 000 prize pool. You can register in all nine leaderboards and thus receive 9 prizes per day.
Earning Points
The number of points a player can score in a random hand depends on their hole cards values: Jack – 11 points, Queen – 12 points, King – 13 points, Ace – 14 points. A player get the points by adding the value of all four cards dealt to him.
For example, a hand K-5-A-7 is to be counted the following way: King (13 points) + 5 + Ace (14 points) + 7 = 39 points.
