# Reward Pools

Game Reward Pools

The Stakehouse Den ecosystem is allotted a number of (voted by Arcade Colony DAO) COLONY tokens (80M/yr for 5 years) from Arcade Colony. The COLONY reward tokens will be distributed equally among 8 games as follows:

* 8M COLONY per year into standard play for each game
* 2M COLONY per year into Jackpot pools for each game

## Game Rewards

Game rewards will be based on Rshares (reward shares) earned from the game. Upon winning a match, Rshares will be allocated to the Rshares pool & COLONY rewards will be awarded for the respective game. Losing a match, however, will not result in any contribution to Rshares or COLONY rewards.

Rshares = (ColonyStakingMultiplier / 10 ) x (GameResultFactor / 10) x (HotSauce)^1.2

Game Rewards = (Rshares /  (TotalRshares2Week + Rshares)) x (PoolBalance / 1000) 

where; 

GameResultFactor will be based on game and win type, you can find details in [Game Overview](/stakehouse-den-whitepaper/game-overview.md).\
\
ColonyStakingMultiplier =  1 + 2^(log(stakedColony/10^6))

Note: Game Rewards will be limited max 1% of the pool for a single game.

## Jackpots

Jackpot pools are unlocked when players use a minimum of 10,000 $HotSauce in a game.

Jackpots are won:

* if players in roulette choose a single number and hit it.
* if players hit a royal flush in Video Poker.
* if players split aces, get blackjack on both, and the dealer does not blackjack.
* if players hit 777 while spinning slots.

Players unlock 1% (TBD) of the bonus pool for every 10,000 $HotSauce they used to play that round.

*Note: This number is subject to change based on game, hot sauce generation and feedback.*
