You can now earn a 10% boost to Challenge Points earned when you help start the first table at a cash game stake where no games are running.

How does it work?

When a cash game stake has no tables running, the first three players to start a table will receive an extra 10% boost to any Challenge Points they earn at that specific table. Your Challenge Points boost won’t stop until you leave the table or it breaks, even if other tables start running.

When you are an “Early Bird”, the icon above will appear at the table to let you know that a 10% boost is currently being applied to any Challenge Points earned there.

Which games are eligible?

All cash games are eligible (Hold’em, Omaha and Banzai).

All players who reach a flop as an "Early Bird" will also unlock the Early Birds avatar.
