Summit Points

Almost every major pokersite has a form of reward system for their players. Stars started it all with the popular FPP store. Did you know that Everest Poker has a very similar system? To give the loyal players something extra and too make the bonus system easier they created the Summit Points Program. What a summit point basically is, is a point given to you for each 1$ taken in rake at your table. If you dont know what rake is I can tell you that it is the “cut” the pokerroom take out of every pot. This is the way the pokersites make money and it is usually 3-5%. What makes Everest Poker’s program great and what diversifies it from the other reward programs is that they give you summit points even if you fold preflop. To get summit points all you have to do is to be dealt a hand.

Anyway lets go back to the summit points. Lets take a closer look at what can be a real valuable system for you. First of all, if you’re the first or second player to it down at a cash-game table at Everest, you will earn DOUBLE summit points. Pretty cool or what? If you play tournaments you will offcourse earn summit point for that too. If you for example participate in a 10+1$ Sit and Go you will earn 8 summit point. Thats 8 points for every dollar in tournament rake. You can find your summit points balance in your cashier.

So what can you do with all these points? Are they just for fun? With the summit points you are able to buy into real money tournaments and also reedem them into Everest Poker merchandise. You can gamble your points at the “Points for Points” tables and tournaments if you are looking for a quick way to get more summit points.
