How the top spot works

  1. Every category opens at $250

    PHO has one top spot. Until someone takes it, the category is unlisted.

  2. Stakes are additive

    Taking #1 costs the holder's total stake plus one tick of $25. If you're passed, your stake still counts, and retaking #1 costs only the difference.

  3. Held until passed

    No expiry and no fixed term. The board reads left to right: the holder's mark sits in the top spot until another company pays more.
