Paddy Power Poker leaderboards

Paddy Power Poker is the place to be if you love nothing more than grinding our cash game and Sit & Go leaderboards. The Irish gambling giant recently launched its own leaderboards that give cash game and SNG players the chance to win cash prizes each and every week.

Both the cash game and SNG leaderboards are exclusive to Paddy Power Poker meaning you’re competing against a smaller pool of players. This, in turn, results in you having a better chance of walking away with a prize for your grinding efforts.

Paddy Power Poker Cash Games Leaderboards

The first of these Cash Game Leaderboards runs from August 13 through to August 19 and sees €1,250 awarded to the top points earners. To keep matters fair and equal, Paddy Power Poker has split the leaderboards into three distinct levels, each based on the stakes you play for.

For the purposed of this ongoing promotion, you earn points for each leaderboard by hitting the following tables:

LeaderboardStakes
Low€0.01/€0.02 and €0.02/€0.04
Mid€0.05/€0.10, €0.10/€0.20, and €0.25/€0.50
High€0.50/€1 and above

Leaderboard points are tied into the rake you contribute at the tables. Twenty leaderboard points are awarded for every €1 you contribute to the cash game rake. The more you rake, the more points you earn, and the more likely it is you’ll secure a prize.

These prize pools increase each time a goal is scored!

All prizes are awarded in cash, giving your bankroll a nice little boost each Thursday. Last week’s payouts were as follows, expect a similar pattern this time around:

PlaceLow PrizeMid PrizeHigh Prize
1€40€40€40
2€30€30€30
3€20€20€20
4€10€10€10
5€8€8€8
6€6€6€6
7€5€5€5
8-9€4€4€4
10€3€3€3
11-20€2€2 

These prizes are in addition to the loyalty cashback payments you receive; it’s free cash, what’s not to like?

Compete Across Three SNG Leaderboards

Check out the SNG Leaderboards if single table tournaments are your speciality. Like the cash game leaderboards, the SNG leaderboards are split into three based on buy-in level, meaning you’re only competing against players playing similar stakes to you.

Earn points for the Low leaderboard in SNG with buy-ins less than €5, Mid points are awarded in games with €5 to €20 buy-ins, with €30 to €100 buy-in SNG earning you points for the High leaderboard.

Points are earned using the following formula: 2* [√n/√fp] * [1+log (buy-in+0.25)]

  • n = Number of players in the SNG
  • Buy-in = The cost of the SNG entry
  • fp = Your finishing position

Prizes are a mixture of tokens and cash and Paddy Power Poker pays out 80 places each week.

It’s worth firing up some SNG even if you don’t usually play them because six of the Low Leaderboard players walked away with a €2 token and €1 token despite finishing with negative points!

The cash game and SNG leaderboards run from midnight BST Thursday through to 11:59 p.m. BST on the following Wednesday. Download Paddy Power Poker via PokerNews, grab your welcome package and hit the tables to climb up the Cash Game and SNG Leaderboards. Good luck!
