League Overview:

Time:

8:00pm EST (Time may vary between 8 pm and 9 pm depending on Members Votes)


Venue:

PokerStars



Weekly Buy-in:

$5 + .50



Pre-requisites:

Register for free at www.Stackzilla.com and have a real money PokerStars account. Players are not required to have signed up for PokerStars through Stackzilla, nor are they required to have done any Stackzilla promotions.



How to Register:

To register, Login to your Stackzilla account and select the event you would like to participate in. These events can be found in the “Upcoming Events” module. This module will be updated to always include the next three upcoming events. There are 10 events for each season, although you are not required to participate in each event, members are asked to compete in as many as possible. Once you have selected the event you can either pre-register for the event for free, or copy the tournament number and find it at PokerStars. This can be done so by entering the tournament identification number into the “Find Tournament” field in the request panel in your PokerStars lobby. If you have only pre-registered, you will be sent a reminder 3 days before and on the day of the event to register your buy-in at PokerStars. You Pay Stackzilla Absolutely Nothing to Participate in this league.


Payout Structure:

Standard PokerStars Poker tournament payout


Individual Event Prizes:

‘Zilla Points will be awarded to the Top 7 finishers in each event:

First Place 12 Points

Second Place 9 Points

Third Place 7 Points

Fourth Place 5 Points

Fifth Place 3 Points

Sixth Place 2 Points

Seventh Place 1 Points



Event Scoring:

Players will be awarded league points based on a formula that will take into account both order of finish and the number of entrants in the specific event. Thus, finishing first in a larger tournament will earn more points than finishing first in a smaller tournament.


League Standings:

Tournament scores will be totaled for each player and standings will be posted on the Stackzilla website. To determine the league champion, each player’s Top 8 finishes will count. Players are not required to participate all Ten events, but to be eligible for the Overall Prizes, players Must participate in at least Six Events

Grand Prize:

At the conclusion of the league, the player with the highest point total will be awarded the Grand Prize, A Championship Poker Bracelet, just like one the pros play for! The bracelet is heavily plated with 14-karat gold and has genuine Swarovski crystals embedded in the faceplate.

Runners-Up:

Second through fifth place overall finishers will also receive ‘Zilla Points:

2nd Place – 80 Points

3rd Place – 60 Points

4th Place – 40 Points

5th Place – 20 Points

Bonus Prizes: But wait, there’s more! The following bonus prizes will be awarded each event.

Knock out a selected member of the Stackzilla staff – 5 Points

Knock out one of the players in the top three of the overall standings – 10 Points

At least 1 Stackzilla staff members are guaranteed to play in every event, but chances are, there will usually be at least two or three in a given tournament. Look out each week for current event information in the League Forum – Stackzilla’s staff's PokerStars screen names for each event will be listed there.



Through five events, anyone who has played in every tournament will qualify as one of the top three overall players. Once the League has reached event six and beyond, anyone who has played in five events will qualify. These bounties will be announced in the current league news module as well as in the Forum,



Stackzilla Administration will keep track of the bounties. However, Members are encouraged to keep track as well, we do ask that those with bounties on their heads also try to pay attention to who knocks them out and let us know, as well. An official bounty thread will be posted in the League Forum for the bounties and bounty winners to announce who eliminated whom.



Additional Rules:

Any player who is deemed to have exhibited poor sportsmanship, which includes, but is not limited to, abusive language or taunting, excessive stalling, or discussing an active hand, will be disqualified from winning ‘Zilla points for that tournament and will not have the tournament count toward the required Six events for the Overall Prizes.

Cheating is strictly prohibited. Stackzilla reserves the right to ban any players from this or any future Stackzilla-sponsored events if they are found to have cheated.

All decisions by Stackzilla.com are final.
