OT: Empire EPoints for SnG players?

[AA suited]

PARTICIPATION IN "SIT AND GO" TOURNAMENTS (Multi and Single):
for every $2 you pay the house to enter a single-table tournament, you will be awarded 1 EPoint.

Does it round down or up if you enter a 50+5 or 100+9?

I'm going to guess that they hold the fractions. I played the $10 tourneys for a while and accumulated 1 point for every 2 tournaments played.

what are epoints? do i have to do anything to start getting them?

From the website:

"EPoints are redeemable for buying gifts at our EmpirePoker Gift Shop, special tournament buy-ins, a personal web page on EmpirePoker.com, real cash into your EmpirePoker account, and other prizes, which will be announced over time."

It doesn't look like you need to do anything to start earning them. Go under Options menu -> VIP account to see how many point you have.

best part is when you reach 15k epoints for the Royal Flush Club, Empire gives you 20% up to $100 per month on deposits. no rake requirements.

Once you become a VIP (prior to becoming a RFC member) you get 2x the points.

In the Empire lobby go to the Options menu and then you'll see a VIP selection. It will bring you to the webisite to check your total.
