General terms and conditions – Blackjack Holiday Tournaments

• Pragmatic Play's Blackjack Holiday Tournaments’ Promotion runs from 15^th November 2024 at 19:01 CET until 10^th January 2025 18:59 CET, featuring eight (8) tournaments, each lasting seven (7) days, on the selected Blackjack games/tables.
•  In order to participate in any Blackjack Holiday Tournament, players must open a participating Blackjack game/table and opt in separately for each tournament.
•  To qualify for the Promotion, players must place real money bets with a minimum of €50 or the currency equivalent.
•  Only the first five hundred (500) Qualifying Bets within each Blackjack Holiday Tournament (the “Qualifying Bets Limit”) will be deemed eligible for each Promotion. Any bets beyond the Qualifying Bets Limit will not count towards the Promotion.
•  A Qualifying Bet shall render a player eligible to rank on the Blackjack Holiday Tournament leaderboard under the following conditions:
•  Only Base Main Bets and Bet Behind (as defined below) that meet the Qualifying Bet criteria will be eligible for consideration in the Blackjack Holiday Tournaments.
•  A Base Main Bet refers to the initial bet a player places at the beginning of each round before splitting hands or doubling down (each a "Base Main Bet").
• A Bet Behind refers to the initial stake placed on another player's hand (each a "Base Bet Behind"). The result of the Bet Behind is tied to the outcome of the Main Bet of the selected player.
• If a player place Base Main Bets and/or Bets Behind along with Side Bets (defined below) in a single game round, only the Base Main Bets and/or Bets Behind will count towards the score.
•  Side Bets refer to Perfect Pairs (Perfect Pair, Coloured Pair, Mixed Pair) and 21+3 (Suited Trips, Straight Flush, three of a Kind, Straight, Flush) (collectively, “Side Bets”).
• If a player occupies multiple seats at a Blackjack table, the total Qualifying Bet and Qualifying Win (as defined below) across all seats will count towards the score.
• A "Qualifying Win" is defined as a positive outcome of one game round following the placement of a Qualifying Bet.
• If multiple Base Main Bets and/or Bets Behind are placed in one round, the total Qualifying Bet and Qualifying Win will be considered for score calculation.
•  If a bet results in a split hand, the total Qualifying Bet and Qualifying Win across all split hands will be considered for the score calculation.
• If the minimum required bet is unavailable, the next higher available minimum bet in the respective game will be considered as a Qualifying Bet.

*Example for illustrative purposes only  

€ 50 = 230 PLN, 550 NOK, 21,000 AMD... 

€ 100 = 460 PLN, 1100 NOK, 42,000 AMD ...

• Prizes will be paid out as fixed cash amounts, as shown in the ‘Prizes’ tab in the participating games.
•  The leaderboard is ranked in accordance with the score, which score is based on the total points received by a player for in-game Consecutive Qualifying Wins (as defined below).

• A Qualifying Win is calculated as the total win (including the stake of the winning bet) divided by the total bet across all seats taken by a player and must exceed one time (1x) the Qualifying Bet.

• A win equal to exactly one time (1x) the Qualifying Bet will not count towards score calculation.

• If a player achieves a Consecutive Win streak but receives a win equal to one time (1x) the Qualifying Bet, the streak will pause and resume once the player places another Qualifying Bet.

• A “Consecutive Qualifying Wins” streak is defined as the sequence of Qualifying Wins received by a player in any of the participating games without any losses occurring between them.

• If a player wins two Qualifying Bets in a row, either on the same table or different participating tables within a Blackjack Holiday Tournament, this will count as two Consecutive Qualifying Wins. (For illustrative purposes only: a player wins two (2) bets in a row on the Blackjack 'A' table, or one (1) win on Blackjack 'A' and one (1) win on Blackjack 'B').

• A player must achieve at least two (2) Consecutive Qualifying Wins from two (2) Qualifying Bets to score on the leaderboard. (For illustrative purposes only: a player bets €250 and wins €500, resulting in a multiplier of 2 (500/250=2), which starts their winning streak. In the next round, the player bets €500 and wins €1,000, which also results in a multiplier of 2 (1,000/500=2); and the player earns 10 points).

• Points are awarded based on the number of Consecutive Wins, as shown below:

• If two (2) or more players finish a Blackjack Holiday Tournament in the same position on the leaderboard, the player who has achieved the score first will receive the higher prize.

• The Blackjack Holiday Tournament rules and prize tables are integrated in the participating games/tables. The leaderboard is updated in real-time, and players can view their current standings at any time of their own choosing when playing the participating games.
