How To Win Your "Tournament of Champions" Chipstack:

Unique chipstacks will be awarded based on the Alpine Olympic tournament buy-in and overall finishing place. If you manage to place in the top 5 in more than one Alpine event, then your stack will be the total sum of all your top 5 Olympic tournament results.

Example: Player A recorded 4 Top 5 results in various Alpine results:

1st in an $11 event, 3rd in a $75 event, 2 x 5th in $2 events

So, Player A's Grand Final Chipstack = 3500 + 4000 + 1500 + 1500 = 10,500 Chips

MTT Buy-in $1-$25 $25-$50 $50+
MTT Result Chipstack Won
1st 2500 3500 6000
2nd 2250 3250 5000
3rd 2250 3000 4000
