F. A. Q.

I have not played here before. How does this all work?
Each player starts with 4000 in chips.
Blinds go up every 15 mins.
New players get a 500 chip bonus.
Bring a new player with you, you and they, get a 500 chip bonus.
For every dollar you spend in the bar, you get 100 in chips.

Why is everyone wearing Sparks gear?
Every Wednesday is Sparks Night. Sparks / Miller Lt is one of our league sponsors, 
anyone wearing Sparks gear or Miller Lt gear will get a 500 chip bonus to start the session. 
Yes, both sessions in the night qualify for this bonus.

How much does it cost to play?
Each session is completely free to play.
Yes, you do get chips if you purchase something from the bar.
However there is never an obligation to purchase anything at all.

What can I win?
First place: $20 Shooters gift certificate 
Second place: $10 Shooters gift certificate
Everyone in the top 5 qualify for the next main event.

How often do you have a game?
We play four nights a week, two sessions each night.
Sundays: 5pm and 8pm
Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays: 7pm and 10pm
Each session is played at Shooters Bar.

Every three months we hold a Main Event. This is an invitation only tournament.
Only those players that have qualified in a daily tournament are invited to play.

What is this Main Event I keep hearing about?
Every three months we hold a Main Event, basically a tournament of champions. This tournament is still free to play, however you do have to qualify first. The first time you 
finish in the top 5 in a daily tournament, you qualify for the main event. Every time you 
qualify thereafter you get bonus chips for the main event. This event is also held at 
Shooters Bar.

I can get bonus chips for this Main Event?
Yes. Your first top five finish in a daily tournament qualifies you for the Main Event,
no bonus chips. Any time you finish in the top five again, you get bonus chips to start with 
in the Main Event.

1st Place: 500 bonus chips
2nd Place: 400 bonus chips
3rd Place: 300 bonus chips
4th Place: 200 bonus chips
5th Place: 100 bonus chips

What is so special about the Main Event?
The Main Event is one of the biggest tournaments around. On average there are 60 
players in each Main Event. No bonus chips are awarded for purchases in this event, just 
what is earned from qualifying, so it is the closest to a true casino tournament you will 
find, AND IT IS FREE! 

What prizes are at stake in the Main Event?
There are multiple prizes awarded during the main event and they vary from event 
to event. Prizes are awarded for first through fifth place and are supplemented by league 
sponsors. On top of all those prizes, first place is also awarded $500 cash.

Free to play, $500 first prize?
Yes, you heard right. So what is keeping you from playing?
