At SPO events you earn points. You earn points in 3 ways*: Participation Points, Placement Points and Attendance Points. You can see the actual breakdown of how this is tabulated here. (*Sit 'N Go events do not award Participation or Attendance Points)

If you do not see your name in the Standings, Monthly Points Leaderboard or the Wild Card Race, but you have played in an event, it is because you have not signed up as a VIP Member. All points earned are recorded for all players, VIP or not.  If you decide to sign up for  VIP Membership, all points previously earned will be displayed (please allow 24-48 hours).

TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONSIONS: The following players have earned a seat in a Tournament of Champions event.  Each season will host 2 TOCs.  Each TOC will feature 6 players who earned their seat by ranking #1 on our Weekly Points Leaderboard for a given week. These events will be filmed on our camera table. The winner of each TOC will receive $100 cash, a seat in the Season Championship, and a limited edition Seattle Poker Open hoodie.  Players who qualify more than once for a given TOC will receive a chip advantage on the camera table, and the next qualifying player for that week will receive the seat normally awarded.
