Live Scoring


Micro Mayhem is a poker contest I host weekly on PokerStars in conjunction with the poker forum on Pocketfives.com. Contestants play a variety of elligible micro level tournaments on Pokerstars and compete against each other for cash and prizes. Points are awarded based on what place each player finishes in the tournaments. Anyone interested in playing should sign up an account with Pocketfives.com and look for the weekly Micro Mayhem thread.

SCORING SYSTEM

If you finish inside the top...
30% = 1 points
29% = 2 points
28% = 3 points
and so on...
2% = 29 points
1% = 30 points
If you finish ITM = an extra 5 points
Final table = an extra 5 points
3rd place finish = 10 bonus points*
2nd place finish = 15 bonus points*
Win the tournament = 20 bonus points*
Percentages are rounded to the nearest whole number

ONLY YOUR TOP 3 SCORES COUNT

The bonus points are intentionally kept low in case a player happens to win 1 tourney, that players score doesn't automatically give him enough points to win overall.

The player with the most points total from your top 3 finishes wins. Other payouts listed below.

Anyone interested in joining respond to the "Micro Mayhem" thread posted on Pocketfives.com with your PokerStars name and I will put you on the list as soon as I have your entry fee.


NOTE: Any tournaments that have already started by the time I receive your entry fee will not count towards your total.
