# Overview

Fast Poker's active economy is centered on Sit-and-Go tournaments.

## Core loop

1. Players enter SNGs.
2. The SNG service fee splits between dealers, Burned $FP stakers, and Platform Fee.
3. SNG play creates governed Raw $FP emission.
4. Raw $FP can be refined into Liquid $FP.
5. Liquid $FP can be burned into permanent Burned $FP weight.
6. Burned $FP earns a pro-rata share of future staker deposits.

## SNG service-fee split

Exactly 10% of each listed SNG tier payment is the service fee; 90% funds the SOL prize pool.

| Recipient          | Share of service fee |
| ------------------ | -------------------: |
| Licensed dealers   |               33.33% |
| Burned $FP stakers |               33.33% |
| Platform Fee       |      33.34% residual |

The residual assignment makes every lamport conserve exactly after integer rounding.

## $FP creation

Only SNG play creates Raw $FP. Emission scales by format, tier, liquid supply, recent SNG fee activity, and a capped idle-pool boost. Royal receives 10% of gross emission. Native heads-up pays its player pool to the winner; 6-max and 9-max apply maturity and Flat Bounty point weights.

## Retired revenue sources

Cash games, primary Dealer License issuance, and token-listing auctions are retired. They create no new activity or deposits. Rewards already credited from those sources remain claimable from their existing vaults.

## Dealer licenses

Exactly 585 licenses exist. New issuance is closed. Existing licenses can move between an active registry PDA and a wrapped MPL Core NFT without changing supply.
