Question: When does it start?
It's already started! All scheduled tournaments in February are counting, except the monthly €1k Guarantee and the freeroll satellite postponed from last month.
Question: How are players ranked?
t's a very easy system. Your score will simply be the amount of money you've won (in the case of satellite tournaments, the value of the tournament entries will be used. For instance, winning a €10k Guarantee ticket in a freeroll satellite would add €75 to your score.)
Question: Which tournaments will be included?
All internal OAK tournaments will count with the exception of the monthly Guarantee tournaments. Starting from March, a number of regularly scheduled network tournaments will be added as well. The added tournaments will match the number of internal OAK tournaments and be closely scheduled for convenience. The maximum buyin for any included network tournament will be set to €25. Example: OAK Freeroll Satellite (21:00) + €8k Guarantee (20:20) on Wednesday, March 3rd.
Question: What can I win?
There will be prizes every month, every 3 months, as well as a yearly Grand Finale:
Every month
1: €100
2: €50
3: €25
4: €10
Every 3 months
1: €450
2: €200
3: €100
4: €50
5: €25
6: €15
7: €10
Every year:
The top 9 ranked players by December, 1st get to participate in a special end-of-the-year €2000 freeroll. If the player qualifies through other means, he will be credited with extra chips in the tournament instead. Finally, the top 9 players will receive a small headstart for next year's leaderboard based on their position and receive special OAK status with increased forum privileges.
Question: How do I keep track of the schedule and my scores?
There will be a dedicated OAK Leaderboard page where you can find schedules and payout dates, as well as easily flip between 1-month, 3-month, and yearly scores. The page will be published before March 1st along with the scheduled network tournaments that will accompany our internal OAK tournaments.
Note about the early schedule: February and March will count as one month (payout April, 10th.) The first 3-month period will be February-May (payout June, 10th.) Following periods will be 1 month / 3 months and payouts always on the 10th the following month.
Question: You announced earlier that highly ranked players in last year's leaderboard would get an advantage. How will that work?
Your score on the leaderboard will be multiplied with two and converted to €. For instance, if you had 50 points, you will get €100 added to your score.
EXTRA OFFERS | VIP Challenge, €2k Freeroll
We'd like to offer our sincere apologies for being later than promised in announcing the details of the leaderboard and the extended bubble guarantee; it's been an extremely busy month for your poor site administrator!
So... we decided to come up with a few extra bonus offers as a compensation:
€2k Guarantee freeroll: This tournament will replace next month's €1k Guarantee freeroll, offering you twice the value while keeping the 500 VIP point requirement. There will be a few additional ways to qualify as well, such as...
VIP Challenge (Feb. 23rd - 28th): All players making 200 VIP points or more in this period will be qualified and automatically registered for the €2k Guarantee tournament. The top 5 ranked players will get to start the tournament with more chips than the rest of the field: 1st (4500), 2nd (4000), 3rd (3750), 4th (3500), 5th (3250). In addition, the top 10 ranked players will be credited €50 to their OAK Leaderboard score.
Rankings will be posted on February 24th, 26th and 27th. The winners will be announced on March, 1st.
1 VIP Qualifiers: For the lowrollers there will be 3 seats available to the €2k Guarantee tournament through a series of qualifying satellites. More details will be published later on, or you can just look for the tournaments to show up under "Special" in the tournament lobby of the client.
