What is a tournament?

• A tournament is a Poker game played with fake chips. Players “buy-in” for a predetermined price and receive a set amount of tournament (fake) chips. Players play until they either win or lose all of their chips. Once a player has lost his/her chips, they are out of the tournament.
• Some tournaments allow players to “re-buy” more chips for a set amount of time. This way, if you lose all of your chips, you can purchase more. Once the rebuy period is over, players cannot buy any additional chips.
• All of the “buy-in” and “rebuy” money is collected and paid out to the last people left in the tournament.
• All of the “buy-in” and “rebuy” money is collected and paid out to the last people left in the tournament.
• First place usually wins 25-30% of the prize pool.

What is a Satellite?

A Satellite is a small, one table, low cost, tournament. Players play satellites in order to gain entry into a tournament with a high buy-in. For instance, a tournament costs $120-the satellite for that tournament would be $25. The (1) winner of the satellite, would be signed up for that tournament and have his buy-in paid in full. We do not hold satellites for all tournaments.

Will there be live Poker games while the tournament is running?

Most of our tournaments do not sell out so we continue to run live games all day. If we have a tournament that is sold out, we will close all games at the start of that tournament. In this case, we will start games as soon as players start coming out of the tournament. The wait is usually not more than an hour.
