Poker tournaments at WPT Global have even more value for players thanks to the launch of the weekly multi-table tournament leaderboards. WPT Global is giving away more than $14,000 every week to the best-performing poker tournament players; will you be one of them?
All tournaments, barring those with "satellite," "ticket," or "qualifier" in their title are eligible to earn leaderboard points. You earn Main MTT Leaderboard points by battling it out in tournaments costing $26.99 or less, and points for the High Roller Leaderboard by entering tournaments with a buy-in of $27 and above.
The Main MTT leaderboard pays out the top 100 points earners each week, with prizes ranging from an $11 ticket up to a package of high-stakes tournament tickets and cash worth an impressive $1,660.
