Awesome score, and makes the long wait for Hertz points worth it.
If you place the Pointbreak system well, you can get that kind of return ($125 e-rewards for 5K IHG points) you can sometimes get a $150+ room night for that, but it requires a fair amount of luck and good timing to get it to line up.
