 Point System Overview
Player points and how they are acquired
There are several ways that a player can earn
points. Players receive points for participating in an event,
for placing within the final 10 players in the tournament(
“top ten”), for eliminating the bounty, and for referring
new players. There are also ads that Free for You Poker places in publications.
Some of these advertisements have a coupon within the ad. These
coupons are worth 1,000 points, and are limited to one per player.
Below is a schedule of the point values for each of these categories.
