The Festival Online - Leaderboards
This edition introduces three epic challenges—MTT, Cash Game, and Twister—each packed with added value and very decent rewards. Players can compete across a variety of formats, from multi-table tournaments to cash games and hyper sit 'n go Twisters, with leaderboards offering prizes ranging from €10 tournament tickets to a coveted €1,850 package for The Festival Series Rozvadov. The series started last week, so quite some points are already earned by players, but definitely it's not too late to chase down these leaderboards.
The MTT Challenge features a dedicated leaderboard for tournament players, with points awarded for participating, knocking out opponents in PKO events, finishing in the top 20%, making it in the money, or winning a tournament. You must opt-in to participate, and eligible tournaments have buy-ins between €5 and €500. The top prize includes a €1,850 Rozvadov package plus €500 cash, with additional rewards for those ranking in the top 50. Meanwhile, the Cash Game Challenge has been revamped to include both NLHE and PLO players, with points earned based on rake generated at stakes ranging from €0.05/€0.10 to €2/€4. The leaderboard offers similar top prizes, including the Rozvadov package and cash rewards, with pay-outs extending to the top 100 players.
For fans of fast-paced action, the Twister Challenge focuses on iPoker’s popular 3-player hyper sit 'n go format. Players earn points based on multipliers and fees paid, with the top prize once again being the €1,850 Rozvadov package and €300 cash. With leaderboards running from February 23rd to March 11th, players across all challenges have the chance to show what they got and get great rewards. Make sure to check out the terms and conditions of these leaderboards of your desired operator, as not all operators within the iPoker Network are opted in for these challenges.
The Festival Online - Missions
The missions are very easy to complete at this point. There is the Flip Flop challenge, where you need to play three Flip 'n Go games. Once you have done this, you will qualify for the Flip Flop final, which is essentially a big flip tournament with a full package for The Festival Series Rozvadov as the prize! There are three other missions available: you either need to knock out ten players in a The Festival Online tournament, see the flop 100 times in a cash game, or play ten tournaments during The Festival Online. For completing any of these three missions, you will receive an entry ticket to the €5,000 The Festival Freeroll.
