_{Visit PokerStars} Even though the added cash prize pool will entice players to load up PokerStars each week, it is the league points that every player will be gunning for. Not only will the weekly tournaments award league points depending on where players finish, but one bonus point will be given out for just participating in each tournament. That means players can accumulate 10 points, just for playing every week.

Place	League Points
1st	20
2nd	16
3rd	14
4th	12
5th	10
6th	8
7th	6

The events in the $10,000 PokerNews League are open to everyone, but are password protected. The password is released on PokerNews 48 hours before each event begins. To add to the excitement, players also have the ability to choose one event where they can earn double the amount of league points. Players must decide on their wild card tournament and announce it on the dedicated forum thread prior to the start of the chosen event. Choose carefully, because you only get one chance at double points! After the ten weekly tournaments are over, the top 27 players on the league leaderboard will advance to the PokerStars PokerNews League Final on Dec. 21 at 2100 EST (0200 GMT). The final will see $10,000 up for grabs, with the top 18 places going home with a cash prize for their time.
