Like any good competition the 888poker Summer ChampionChips will include a lucrative leaderboard that will award prizes to anyone that makes it into the top 200 during the series.

If you top everyone else on the leaderboard by the end of the series you’ll take home $1,000.

Simply play plenty of Summer ChampionChip events and attempt to generate as many points as possible during the series to ascend the leaderboard.

The 888poker Summer ChampionChips is already a pretty bankroll-friendly series but you can also qualify for the event through satellites on the site, which run from Aug. 6-13.

There’s a little bit of everything in the series with boxing (Knockout tournament), hurdles (rebuy) and synchronized swimming (PLO, obviously).
