At Golden Riviera, they award players for frequent play with "Golden Points." 1 Golden Point is earned for every 10 raked hands that you earn at 0.25/0.50 or above (must be raked at or above $0.25 to count). The more you play during the month, the more your Golden Points will be worth. For example, if you play 700 raked hands during the month, you will earn 70 Golden Points. Those 70 Golden Points will be worth $21.00 (7 groups of 10 Golden Points each worth $3). The Golden Points will accumulate from the 27th of any month to the 26th of the next month.

Clear Rates Disclaimer:
We have generated our clear rates by using Party Poker hand histories, and running them through each site's rake structure. Obviously, game conditions (looseness, aggression, and game speed) will be different from site to site, so these numbers may vary from what is actually experienced.
