ABOUT TOURNAMENTS
In a multi-table tournament, players start with a fixed number of chips. Players at numerous
tables compete for one another's chips as the blinds and/or antes increase incrementally.
As players are eliminated, tables are "broken", meaning players are re-assigned to keep
tables full, or even with one another. Eventually, the last few surviving players with chips are
assigned to the final table, where the eventual winner is the individual who wins all the chips
from his or her opponents. Cash prizes are awarded to top finishers on the basis of number
of tournament entries.
SHOOTOUTS
A shootout is a special kind of multi-table tournament. Normally, when you play in a
multi-table tournament, players are moved from table to table to balance the number of
players at each table. Eventually, the fortunate last nine players end up at the "final table".
In a shootout, no such table balancing is done. You remain at your original table until only
one player is left standing. If you win that table, you advance to another table and repeat the
process against players who each won their first table.
In a DOUBLE SHOOTOUT, you need to win two tables to win the event, although often there
is some money for everybody who makes the second table. . Each starting table is played to
its conclusion; the final table is formed of the winners of the first round matches.
In a TRIPLE SHOOTOUT, you must win three tables to win the entire event (again, there
may well be some prize money distributed along the way). For example, assuming a
standard (9 players per table) triple shootout is full, 729 players will be placed, 9 per table,
at 81 tables within the tournament. Each table will play until there is one player remaining
with all of the chips from that table. The 81 players remaining will then be moved to 9 tables
for Round 2. As in Round 1, each table will play until one player has all of the chips from that
table. Finally, the 9 remaining players will advance to the final table, where the Champion of
the tournament shall be determined.
Note that this whole process could be extended to quadruple shootouts and on up. Also, the
tables don't necessarily have to start at nine players each. For instance, for the 2004
*WSOP, we ran triple shootouts with four-player tables (a total of 64 players in each event).
SATELLITES
A satellite is a smaller tournament in which the prize is an entry into a larger tournament.
Satellites are inexpensive to enter compared with multi-table tournaments. While a
multi-table tournament may carry a $200 buy-in, one can buy into a satellite for $20 and win
a $200 seat in the multi-table tournament. Multi-table satellites are scheduled as regular
tournaments, and the sign-up details and play are identical.
An example of how a satellite would work: The buy in for the larger tournament is $200+$20.
The buy in for the satellite is $20+$2. If there are 10 entrants (into the satellite), first place
will get an entry to the larger tournament. If there are 20 entrants then 1st and 2nd place will
receive entry to the larger tournament. If there are 23 entrants, 1st and 2nd place will get
entries to the larger tournament and 3rd place will get a $60 prize.
If there is a cost to enter either a tournament or satellite, it will be denoted by stating the
buy-in amount and the entry fee. A cost of "30+3" indicates that the buy-in is $30, and the
entry fee is $3. The $30 goes to the prize pool which the players compete for, while the $3
entry fee is taken as compensation for hosting the tournament.
FREEROLLS
There is another type of tournament, a "freeroll", in which entry is completely free. There is
no buy-in and no entry fee, but there are cash prizes available to win.
These tournaments can be easily found by clicking on the "Tourney" tab in the main client
window, and then on the "Freeroll" tab. We hold several such events daily, leading to a
Weekly Round 2 championship.
During peak hours (6pm to 3am), these tournaments are limited to 1000 players to prevent
server overload. They are very popular and you may have difficulties getting in before they
fill up. The offpeak tournaments have no limit on the number of players; as well, most
Freeroll tourneys are immediately followed by a micro buy in real money event (cost of
playing is always $3 or less).
SIT & GO
A sit&go event is a one or two table event that is not regularly scheduled; it simply begins
when all the seats for the event are filled. These tournaments can be found by clicking on
the "Sit&Go" tab in the main client window.
We offer 5 kinds of sit&go tournaments:
Single table: 9 players. Pays top 3 places (50%-30%-20%).
Two table: 18 players; players are randomly assigned across two tables. Once nine players
are eliminated, the two tables are combined into one table. Pays top 4 places
(40%-30%-20%-10%).
Multi-Table: 2-table, 3-table, 5-table, 10-table and 20-table Sit & Gos. Players are randomly
assigned a table, nine players per table. When nine players are eliminated the remaining
tables will be combined. Combining continues until there are only nine players remaining in
the tournament. Information about the prizes awarded can be found by clicking on the "Prize
Info" button in the tournament lobby.
Headsup: 2 players, mano a mano. Winner takes all.
Headsup 4 player match: 4 players; divided into two tables and two headsup matches are
played. The two winners then play another headsup match for all the marbles. Winner takes
all.
REBUY TOURNAMENTS
A rebuy tournament is one in which you have the opportunity to buy more chips during the
event. In a non-rebuy tournament, when you run out of chips, you're out of the tournament.
In a rebuy tourney, you can (with some restrictions) buy more chips.
Here are the facts about rebuy tournaments:
There is a "rebuy period" at the beginning of the tournament. A typical rebuy period might
be the first hour of the event (until the first break starts). Once that period is over, no more
rebuys are permitted.
During the rebuy period, there may be a fixed number of rebuys available, or an unlimited
number.
If you run completely out of chips, you will automatically be offered a rebuy (if one is
available). At any time, you can click on the dealer tray and select the "Add More Chips"
option. If you're not eligible for a rebuy (because you've reached the maximum number of
rebuys), you'll get a message to that effect.
In general, you may rebuy using the "Add More Chips" button in the dealer tray any time in
the middle of a hand when your stack size at the start of that hand is equal to or less than
the original number of chips in the tournament. This means you can rebuy once before the
tournament even starts!
There may be an "add-on" available at the end of the rebuy period. Typically this will be
during the first break. An add-on is just one extra rebuy. The add-on will not be
automatically offered to you. To take the add-on, wait for the message that "Players are now
on break." Click on the dealer tray and select the "Add More Chips" option. In general, the
add-on is available no matter how many chips you have.
The rebuy may cost any amount, but generally costs the same as the original buyin, and
gets you the same number of chips that you got for your original buyin.
The add-on may cost any amount, but generally costs the same as the original buyin, and
gets you the same or higher number of chips that you got for your original buyin.
Rebuys are not charged a rake as is the original buyin. So if a rebuy tournament has a
buyin of $10+1, then the rebuys will usually be $10 and all $10 of each rebuy will go into the
prize pool.
The prize pool and payoffs will not be announced until the rebuy period ends, since the prize
pool increases with each rebuy.
Note that many of the rules described above are "typical" or "normal". The exact details for
each tournament will be posted in the tournament's lobby.
DEEP STACKS
You will often see a tournament in the lobby labelled as a "Deep Stacks" event. This
indicates that each player starts with more chips than usual.
The starting stack in most Deep Stack events is 5,000 chips. The blinds are normally the
same as a regular PokerStars tournament, thus giving each player more play throughout the
event.
In addition to a deeper-than-normal starting stack, most Deep Stack events have 30-minute
intervals between levels. The normal interval between changes in levels on PokerStars is 15
minutes. Lengthening the levels in Deep Stacks events is another way of providing a lot of
play, particularly in the early stages of the tournament.
You can find Deep Stack events in the lobby; the words "Deep Stacks" should be in the
name, which should be in pink.
6-MAX
"6-max" in the tournament's title indicates that at each table, there are 6 seats, as opposed
to the normal 9 (or 8 in stud-type games).
6-max events are generally shown in the lobby in a light blue.
TURBO
A turbo event (usually displayed in the lobby in green) is one in which the blind levels
increase much faster than in standard play. The interval in a turbo tournament is usually 5
minutes (as opposed to the standard 15), though there are turbo events with 6-minute
intervals.
Turbo rebuy events usually break at 30 minutes as opposed to 60 minutes in a standard
rebuy event.
