About Hold’em Tournaments
A large number of players participate in tournaments, playing simultaneously with the same amount of chips.
There are two tournament formats: Sit and Go and Multi Tournament (MTT).
In Sit and Go format, players compete for the pot on one table (up to 10 players).
In Multi Tournament format, players play simultaneously on two or more tables. Players who lose out of the game are replaced by players from other tables, and the final winner is determined at the last remaining table.
Players who lose all their chips drop out of the tournament, and tournament ranking is determined by the order in which players drop out.
The size of the blind increases as the tournament progresses. Once one player (or a designated number of players) holds all of the chips available, the tournament ends.
At the end of the tournament, prize money is awarded according to ranking.
