Why this exists

The number one
game pause.

Every weekly game I sit in, someone asks: "wait, what does that pay?" We all stop, scroll the NMJL site on someone's phone, and lose our momentum.

This sheet ends that.

One side covers home and cash game payouts. The other covers tournament and league bonuses, including the discard penalty that costs more people the round than any other rule.

Print it. Tape it to your scorecard holder. Save it to your camera roll. It is yours.

What's inside

Everything you need,
on one page.

Cash game payouts

02

Tournament + league

Bonuses, the discard penalty, and how scoring shifts when you're playing for points instead of money.

03

Four worked examples

Real hands, real numbers. See exactly how a Singles and Pairs hand pays versus a Like Numbers in tournament play.

The three of us teach
