You have to give some respect to the players who are good enough to finish at the top of a poker room leaderboard. Because no matter if it’s the daily, weekly, or monthly leaderboard it takes a lot of work and skill to accomplish the feat of besting all of the other players for any period of time. But even though a lot of the credit for winning a poker room leaderboard title may go to the player, there is always that element of luck that factors in too.

There’s usually not a whole lot of separation at the top so the winner could just be the person who catches a break on the river in a certain big tournament or gets on a hot streak with the right cards. But at Duplicate Poker, there won’t be any lucky winners as they offer the first totally skill-based leaderboards ever.

That’s because Duplicate Poker is all about skill as players from two different tables will be dealt the same cards but the person who plays them the best gets the chips. And there are plenty of cash prizes to go around for those who can play their cards the best as Duplicate offers money to the daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly leaderboard winners.

The top 10 players from the daily and weekly leaderboards will get paid while the top 20 from the monthly and yearly contest will also receive cash prizes. For example, the weekly leaderboard champ will get $100, second place will receive $50, and so on.

The cool thing about those who finish in the top 6 weekly spots is that they will also get a chance to compete in the Duplicate Poker World Team Championship where a guaranteed $120,000 will be up for grabs. In order to get in on these totally skill-based leaderboards and start winning cash along with a shot at the World Team Championship, download Duplicate Poker and use the POKERWORKS bonus code to not only get the deposit bonus of 100% up to $350 but also the $3 completely free.

If you’re wondering how the Duplicate leaderboards work before signing up, they are based off of a point system. All points are given out through tournament and Sit & Go finishes. Like most rooms, the bigger the tournament or Sit & Go is, the more points the player will be given depending on their finish in the tournament. However, unlike many other rooms, how you do rests solely on your shoulders and not some element of chance.

You don't have to leave home, the price is $free$, and you stand to gain a wealth of poker information and make $$ too.*
