Helping new players

This only works if the player has not registered another account already.

The first hour pays $50,000, then the payout scales down until it reaches $0 once the new player has been playing for 20 hours.

To know if the reward is available, enable Notify me of New Players. If the message says accounts on this PC: 1, the reward is available for that player.
