Bonus Points

• 20 points for a special celebrity knockout
• 25 points for knocking out FootyAccums, Oddschanger or TWEnclosure
• 29 points for 'High Hand' screenshot. The highest-ranking poker hand posted in reply to @FootyAccumsPkr twitter thread.
• 29 points for 'Twitter Last Longer' All players who submit a screenshot of them playing in reply to FootyAccumsPkr twitter thread in the first 30 minutes of play will compete in a Last Longer.
• 47 points for two Final Tables in one month
• 77 points for playing every £5.50 league tourney in the monthly league
• 100 points for winning two League Tournaments in one month. 

Example: Pep registers for the tournament enters and plays (9 points) and gets knocked out. He re-enters (9 points) performs better. He knocks out FootyAccums for a special KO (25 points) and goes on to win the whole tournament (100 points). In total Pep gets 9+9+25+100 = 142 points for his win!

Jose doesn't do as well. He enters and plays (9 points) gets his Aces cracked so re-enters (9 points) gets unlucky with two pair so has a third attempt (9 points). Unfortunately, it's not Jose's night and he doesn't get into any meaningful position. Jose gets 9+9+9 = 27 points for his efforts.

Sam does okay, he enters and plays (9 points) and just scrapes into the cash positions placing 38th, but doesn't make the Final Table (22 points) Sam gets 9+22 = 31 points.

Marcelo's luck is in, he enters and plays (9 points) and finishes 3rd in the tournament (70 points). In his quest for third, he knocked out celebrity guest Ray Parlour (20 points) and submitted his screenshot of Quad Aces to @footyaccumspkr on Twitter which was the best high hand submitted (29 points). Marcelo gets 9+70+20+29 = 128 points for his third-place finish with bonuses.
