Tournaments Types and Features
Multi-table
If more than
table is needed to accommodate the number of
regis
ed players in a tournament, it is known as a multi-table
tournament. During a Multi-table tournament, as players are eliminated,
players
l be moved randomly from
table to anot
in order to
keep the number of players at e
table as balanced as possible.
Although we try to be fair and move players in rela
n to their
posi
n w
the dealer button, a player may end up moving from their
blinds and move to a blind posi
n again.
Sit &

; Go
Sit &
; Go tournaments are events t
do not have a scheduled
start time. They start when the needed number of regis
ed players is
re
ed. When the prearranged number of competitors is re
ed e
participant is notified t
the tournament is ab
to start. Ex
le:
A No Limit Hold'em
table Sit &
; Go
l start as soon as ten
players are regis
ed.
Heads-up
When a contest is between 2 players only, it is re
to as
Heads-up. Heads-up Shoot-
tournaments are a good way to improve your
winning game, as you
l end up facing
opp
nt most of the time
to win any tournament. The rules are the same w
Heads-up play w
the excep
n t
the player w
the "dealer button" posts the small
blind and
l act first pre-flop then last for the remainder of the
hand. The player who posts the big blind is dealt first.
Re-

&

; Add-on Tournament
Some tournaments allow for players to condi
nally Re-
&
;
Add-on during a p
e
mined time period in the tournament. They allow
for players to continue in the tournament and still have the
opportunity to win the tournament for a Re-
or w
available
Add-on. Re-
&
; Add-on tournaments are a great way to increase the
pr
pool and the number of players who
l qualify for pr
s. All
Re-
s &
; Add-on monies are included in the pr
pool.
Freeze-
In a Freeze-
tournament players make a single Buy-in and upon
losing all their chips,
l be eliminated from the tournament. As
players become eliminated the tables are combined w
ot
tables

is
player left
w
all the chips.
Shoot-
A Shoot-
tournament consists of a limited number of players
competing on dif
ent tables. In ro
1, players compete
il th
is
player left at e
table w
all the chips. In ro
2 the
winners from ro
1 are then combined at ot
tables and they again
play
il th
is
player left w
all the chips. A Shoot-
tournament can have between two (Heads-up) to ten players on e
table
competing over 1 or more ro
s. The number of ro
s and players per
table varies and can be fo
