| POINT SYSTEM |
| Every player at a Hold'em Northwest game receives points toward regular Invitational Tournaments. At first, tournaments will be held monthly, where the top finishers will compete for prizes of trips to Spirit Mountain Casino, including buy-ins to tournaments. As the league grows, so will the prizes. Larger tournaments, to be held quarterly, are anticipated.
Of course, the higher you finish in each game, the more points you receive. The more players in the game, the more points awarded. |
| Place Points
1st 10 x Number of Players 2nd 9 x Number of Players 3rd 8 x Number of Players 4th 7 x Number of Players 5th 6 x Number of Players 6th 5 x Number of Players 7th 4 x Number of Players 8th 3 x Number of Players 9th 2 x Number of Players 10th 1 x Number of Players |
| 11th through 16th .5 x Number of Players
Everyone else will each receive five points. Additional points, earned by taking out the "Bounty" player selected by the Director at the start of the game, will also be awarded. The top qualifiers each month will be eligible for the tournaments, and the results will be posted on our website. |
| Players’ points do not go away when the month or the quarter ends. Points accumulate until they are used to enter a tournament. If a player hasn’t enough points to qualify for a tournament, they will simply continue to accrue points until they have enough to qualify.
If a player has enough points to qualify, but is unable to attend a tournament, the points will remain in the player’s “bank” until used. |

| Accounts for players who have not been active for 180 days will be removed from the standings and placed in an inactive file. |
| In some cases, players' points are transferrable. Transferring points requires approval of the management of Holdem Northwest. |

| Under certain special conditions, double points will be awarded. All points, including bounties, are doubled. |
| A special bonus of Double Points will be awarded any player who wins both games in one night, when 16 or more players were present for each game. |
| A special bonus of 100 points will be awarded any player who achieves a Straight-Flush, when the hand is called to the river. |
| Players new to the league will receive a bonus of 100 points. |
| A special bonus of 100 points will be awarded a player who introduces a new player to the league. |
