League Dates: 01/o1/24 - 12/31/24  

(*Your points begin accumulating the day you join Pocket Queens.  They will NOT be awarded retroactively)

We have made a few changes this year to ensure fairness / equitability for all members, from newbies to seasoned pros.

This year we will have two separate leagues...

• No Limit Hold 'Em... You will earn points based on your MTT finishes both from our Pocket Queens monthly online members-only tourneys as well as cashes earned at outside LIVE events. (No outside online MTTs)

• Mixed Games... Each month we will choose a game for the entire month in order to really get into it and learn as much as possible.  You will earn points based on your finishes ONLY from our Pocket Queens online weekly members-only tourneys.  We will not be counting live Mixed Games this year as it will be a "learning" year for us in this new format. 

​

At the end of the year we will award trophies as well as cash prizes generously provided by Victoria Livschitz. (Details below)


Rules:

   MTT must have at least 32 runners to qualify. Satellites, free rolls & charity events are excluded.  Only exception to this will be our members-only online tourneys.

   You MUST play in at least ONE online league game (not necessary to cash, only participate) for each league you choose to compete in (NLHE & Mixed).  Our monthly online NLHE tournaments will run on Clubb GG on the 3rd Wednesday of every month (barring any conflicts) at 5:30pm PST, late reg 7:30pm PST.  Our weekly Mixed Games tournaments will run on PokerStars every Tuesday at 5pm PST, late reg 6pm PST. These are ONLY open to members of Pocket Queens.
Instructions on how to join will be posted in the relevant Discord channels.

   You MUST fill out the Google form HERE in order for your points to be calculated and accepted into the league.   Please remember to provide proof of your result... this can be done by taking a photo of the results sheet in an unranked tournament. Or any method that will show YOUR NAME, the # of runners and your payout. There will be a place to upload photos/docs in the submission form.  We will NOT include your points if you do not fill out the form for EACH live cash (online league cashes will automatically be added).


How points are calculated:

   No Limit Hold 'Em:
   Top 12 live cashes PLUS all 12 QQ League online monthly tournaments. 

   This change is to ensure 1: participation in our online league (best way to practice the skills you are learning alongside your fellow Queens) and 2: to balance out pros/semi-pros vs recreationals.

   We will model our NLHE points system after the PGT Points System: Leaderboard points are awarded for in-the-money finishes in qualifying poker tournaments. We will calculate all cashes using three tiers correlating to buy-in amounts:
 

• 0.10 points per dollar cashed in $1 to $399 buy-in events

 

• 0.06 points per dollar cashed in $400 to $999 buy-in events

 

• 0.03 points per dollar cashed in $1,000 to $3,499 buy-in events

 

• 0.01 points per dollar cashed in $3,500+ buy-in events

   Pocket Queens online monthly tournaments will be considered as $1,000 buy-in events with “cashes” calculated for top 15% of the field using the Club GG Payout Calculator.

   Nan Min will be in charge of updating the scores. You can find the to those results posted in Discord
 

   Mixed Games:   

   All 52 QQ online weekly tournaments.  

​

   PokerStars will automatically tally points
