**KoH Payout Rule
Payment of the KoH pot is contingent upon a minimum of 16 participating bowlers in the respective division. In the absence of meeting this threshold, the funds earmarked for the KoH pot will be redirected to augment the prize fund for the respective month. If less than 16 in a month the winning bowler will still compete for the crown with the reigning king still receiving 75% of the KoH pot. However, if the bowler defeats the reigning king they will not receive 25% of the KoH pot and the next month they will only be eligible to receive half of the 75% of the KoH pot. Example 75% of KoH pot if at $600 the reigning king from a less than 16 month will receive $300.

Bonus pins are not used in brackets, high games, super pot, or eliminator finals. Bonus pins reset after a bowler cashes in the tournament.
