UPDATED! 11/29/13, 3:00pm EST: This article was originally posted on October 19th and has since been updated.

The Winning Poker Network, via their dedicated representative on the TwoPlusTwo poker forum and via email announcement, have revealed the final details for their new "SIT & CRUSH" progressive Sit & Go promotion that will begin on December 1st, 2013 and continue moving forward. As usual, ProfRB.com has you covered with all of the details!

The new "Progressive Sit & Go Race" was originally announced back in October, and we can now report that the December prize pool will be initially seeded with $25,000. Here is the updated information heading into the promotion's debut month, for your reference:

EARN POINTS (amended on 11/30 per ACR email): Each time you pay $1 toward the percentage taken to seed the overall pot, you will receive 5 race points. Note that you will be paying no additional fees to participate in the Sit & Go race. WPN will be redistributing 25% from the standard fees from all SNG's back into the leaderboard (on top of the initially seeded $25k) where the players who earned the most points based on volume at the end of the month will receive the corresponding cash payout.

For example, if you enter a SNG with a $50+$5 fee, you would earn 6.25 race points, since 25% of the $5 fee ($1.25) goes to the jackpot. Entering a $20+$2 SNG would earn you 2.5 race points, while a $10+$1 SNG would earn you 1.25 race points.

START | FINISH TIMES: Each SNG race is one calendar month long and begins on the first day of every month at 12am. Every SNG race finishes the last day of every month at 11:59pm. This will begin on December 1st, 2013 at 12am and will be implemented each month moving forward.

SNG's THAT QUALIFY: Every type of SNG earns points towards the race, with the exception of heads-up SNG's. These include both On Demand and "Double or Nothing" SNG's.

EARNING EXTRA POINTS: "Early bird" points will be awarded for those players who are the first to enter On Demand tournaments. For example - in an 18-person On Demand tournament that requires 18 to start, those first 18 players will receive quadruple points. Those who register during the late registration period will receive double points.

"HAPPY HOURS": Certain hours of the day will qualify as "Happy Hours", in which players get double the normal points for all SNG's played in that time frame. "Happy Hours" will be posted a week before each contest starts. WPN management reserves the right to add additional "Happy Hours" during a monthly race, while giving the same week’s notice.

Here is an example of how SNG fees operated before the new Sit & Crush promotion, and how it works out after it starts:

Before: $100 Regular 9-Max -- $9 fee
After: $100 Regular 9-Max -- $9 fee, but $2.25 now goes toward the leaderboard payouts.


Once again, the Sit & Crush promotion will begin on December 1st, 2013, and all fees paid into the promotion for December are added to the initial $25,000 pool!
