Are you drooling over big-time Vegas tournaments like the WSOP? Americas Cardroom.net brings huge tournaments directly into your home.
Featuring up to 4,000 players, our Multi-Table Tournaments are just like bricks-and-mortar tournaments featuring huge numbers of players competing for massive prize pools.
Every Multi-Table Tournament begins at a specified date and time. Players are encouraged to register for the tournament in advance, however, some tournaments offer late registration allowing players to sit down and play up to an hour after the tournament has started.
To register, you must pay your buy-in plus the registration fee. A $10 No Limit Tournament would actually cost $11. The buy-in would be $10+1 ($10 for the prize pool and $1 for the entry fee). This practice is standard in all online poker rooms and bricks-and-mortar casinos.
Once your buy-in has been received, you’ll receive your starting chips. All players begin play with the same number of chips. With a maximum of 10 players to a table, registered tables will be randomly spread out among the number of tables required to accommodate all players. As players get knocked out, tables are closed and players are moved to ensure tables remain balanced.
If you’re only accustomed to playing cash games where players can come and go as they please, you’re going to love Multi-Table Tournaments. Remember the buy-in prior to taking your seat? Well that buy-in is thrown in a giant prize pool with the buy-ins from every other player. At the end of the tournament, a specified number of players will share that prize pool based on their finishing position. While a range of factors determines how much can be won, here’s a classic example of a $10 No Limit Hold’em tournament:
If 450 players enter a tourney, a total prize pool of $4,500 will be available. Using our standard payout schedule, the winner will earn $1,350 and the second place finisher will earn $585. Not bad for an $11 investment.
