poker points

PUCPOUND

I play on the site every night a mixture of cash and tournaments, yet I always struggle to get to or just over the 500 points in a month to get the £5.

How on earth do you recomemd playying inorder to get to 1000 plus points ?

I get there playing dyms. find a level u can win 2 out of 3, and you make a small profit and rack up the points. The small profit pays for entries into sats or tounies u like playing

I just about scrape over 1000 points by playing 2 cash tables.

If your comp can only handle 2 tables, the only way is to dramatically increase your stakes, play a lot more, or buy a new pc, or just wait for the download version

The amount of points is based on the rake in cash games as Don says, and as a % of your buy in in tournaments.  If you enter a deepstack for £2.20 that lasts fro 4 hours you will still only get 2 poker points no matter how high you cash or how long you are playing.  If you enter a £2.25 DYM you get 3 poker points for a tournament that generally lasts about 1/2 hour. 

If you want to rack up points, short tournaments and cash games are the way to go
