Online Poker Tournaments: A Comprehensive Primer (Part 2)
Exploring Different Tournament Types
In the first part of our article, we covered the basics of online poker tournaments. In this installment, we’ll delve deeper into the various types of tournaments you can participate in.
Multi-Table Tournaments
Multi-table tournaments are expansive and can host over 2,000 players. Each participant competes against others at their table, with winners progressing to different tables. This continues until only one player remains victorious, often after several hours of play.
Single Table Tournaments (Sit and Go)
These tournaments are smaller, typically featuring nine or ten players. You compete solely against the others at your table. The tournament begins once the required number of players is registered, usually lasting around an hour. These are often winner-takes-all events.
Free Roll Tournaments
As the name suggests, these tournaments come with no entry fee. Poker rooms frequently offer free rolls as a perk to existing players or as a bonus for making a deposit, giving you the chance to win real money without any upfront cost.
Satellite Tournaments
Satellite tournaments provide smaller stakes with the chance to win entry to larger competitions. Some poker rooms even offer paths leading to prestigious events like the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.
Additional Information
- Re-buy or Add-ons: Some tournaments allow the purchase of extra chips after starting. These purchases have specific rules regarding timing and limits, and the option to buy more chips usually ends at a designated point in the tournament.
- Blinds: Blinds increase periodically according to a set schedule in most tournaments. This mechanism encourages more aggressive play by making it costly to continually fold, ultimately helping shorten the tournament duration.
- No Limit (NL) / Pot Limit (PL): In No Limit tournaments, players can bet all of their chips at any time. In Pot Limit tournaments, the maximum bet is limited to the size of the current pot.
We hope this two-part series has provided valuable insight into online poker tournaments. If you feel ready, it’s time to put your knowledge to the test. Good luck!
