Weekly cash race leaderboard at Chico Poker: record prize pool
Chico Poker Network has held a single $15,000 Weekly Cash Race, and only a few changes were made to the prize structure. In April 2020, $55,000 Cash Race Boost took place with bigger prizes but also a bigger "in the money" area (TOP500 grinders got a prize).
Now Chico decided to switch to a more accessible format and divide its weekly race into four tiers by stake:
In July 2020, Chico Poker Network will host a $40,000 Weekly Cash Race Leaderboard with 14 independent ratings for all NLH and PLO stakes.
Prizes will be distributed as follows:
| Stake | NLH | PLO |
| $0.05/$0.10 | $500 | $250 |
| $0.10/$0.25 | $1,000 | $500 |
| $0.25/$0.50 | $2,000 | $1,250 |
| $0.50/$1 | $10,000 | $2,000 |
| $1/$2 | $7,500 | $1,500 |
| $2/$5 | $5,000 | $2,500 |
| $5/$10 | $4,000 | $1,500 |
| Total | $30,000 | $10,000 |
The new scheme is much fairer as it has mixed all stakes and allows more players to compete for a prize.
On the other hand, despite the fact that the overall prize pool was significantly boosted, the winners of the leaderboards won't notice many changes (from 10-13 buy-ins to just two at the highest stakes).
Points towards the leaderboard will be counted as 1 point = $1 rake.
Within leaderboards, the money will be distributed as follows:
