About Poker Tournaments on the Internet

There are many different kinds of poker tournaments found online, for example: Texas Holdem, Omaha, 7-card Stud, and hi/lo games. The amounts may vary depending on the game chosen and the amount of players registered for the tournament.

Scheduled Poker Tournaments Online

Scheduled poker tournaments can be registered for in advance and they may not be limited on the amount of players. They will begin at the scheduled time and will run until a winner is reached. After registering for the tournament, depending on the casino you will be seated at a table with 8-10 other online players. As the game progresses and players lose their chips you will be moved from table to table, by the casino, until the final table is reached.

We recommend to our poker tournament players before registering, make sure to check the amount to register and also the pay scale for finishing the tournament. Also be sure the online poker tournament that you are registering for is in fact the game that you want to play.

Hints: N/L = No Limit, players may bet all their chips at any time.
P/L = Pot Limit, players may bet the amount equal to the entire pot at anytime.
LT = Limit, players may only bet or raise the amount set by the table.

In all types of poker tournament the blind and antes will increase as the game progresses, this helps move the game to an eventual winner. However some casinos increase the blinds by the number of hands played and other casinos may increase the blinds based on time played. But in both examples the increment of increase is usually double that of the previous round.

We recommend practice poker tournaments for free, before setting at a real money table, in order to gain experience needed to become a winning poker tournament player.

Sit & Go Poker Tournaments

Another type of online poker tournament is the Sit & Go Tournament; this tournament is not a scheduled event and is limited on the number of poker players that may register.

We recommend to our poker players to make sure you are at the correct poker game and amounts that you wish to play before registering for the tournament.
