Есть два типа турниров: Sit & Go и Турниры на несколько столов.

Турнир Sit & Go запускается сразу после осуществления регистрации требуемого количества игроков. Турнир на несколько столов начинается в определенное время. Для регистрации в турнире игроки перед началом турнира должны заплатить вступительный взнос. С турниров доля заведения не берется. Вместо этого игроки платят небольшой взнос (помимо вступительного взноса), который поступает в заведение. Выигрыш распределяется по игрокам в конце турнира в соответствии с предопределенной схемой присуждения призовых.

There is no rake for tournaments. Instead, players pay a small fee on top of the entrance fee which goes to the house. Winnings are awarded to the top finishers in the tournament using a predetermined prize structure. Players do not choose a seat at a table and then buy in. Instead they register in a tournament and wait to be assigned a seat. The players are seated at random around the table and each player is given a predetermined number of chips.

Players cannot buy more chips during a tournament, unless the tournament allows re-buys and add-ons. Once players lose all of their chips, they are out of the tournament (freeze-out).

A tournament finishes when one player has won all of the chips.

Play is the same as for Cash Games with the following exceptions:

• Players must always post blinds on their turn. They may not leave the table. If they are disconnected or stop playing, the blinds are posted automatically from their stacks, and the hands are automatically folded.

• Every player must post a big blind followed by a small blind once around the table. In some situations (when either the player currently on the small blind or the big blind is knocked out) there may be a “dead dealer button”. This means that the dealer button does not move to the next player, but instead stays where it is. This is because the big blind and the small blind must not miss any player at the table on its way around. Another consequence of this is that sometimes a small blind is not posted.

• Once a player has lost all his/her chips he/she cannot buy any more and is automatically removed from the table, unless the tournament allows re-buys and add-ons.
