How do I collect Gemstones?
For every 7,500 StrategyPoints (excluding bonus StrategyPoints) you earn each month at one of our participating rooms, you will receive a Gemstone. A Gemstone is worth between $150-$200, depending on the total amount of Gemstones you earn in 2012. The more Gemstones you collect, the more cash you'll receive.

How do the deductions work?
The name of the game is consistency! If you manage to earn at least 1 Gemstone every month after you've earned your first Gemstone, you will be rewarded with up to $200 per Gemstone.
However, if you fail to earn a Gemstone after you've already received your first Gemstone, a deduction will be applied to your year-end total (see table below).
| Gemstone Promotion - Deductions | |
| Months with no Gemstones* | Gemstones deducted |
| 0 | 0 |
| 1 | -1 |
| 2 | -3 |
| *Deductions only apply to missed months after you earned your first Gemstone |
|
Example 1: If you earn your first Gemstone in October and continue to earn at least one Gemstone per month until the end of the year, you won't have any deductions and will therefore get $450 cash in January for your three Gemstones.
Example 2: You earn your first Gemstone in October, no Gemstones in November and one Gemstone in December. You will have one Gemstone deducted to your final Gemstone tally, giving you one Gemstone and $150 cash in January.
