Guide to Poker Tournament Play

Many Poker rooms offer their own tournaments from low six figure amounts to multi-million dollar events. Some Poker rooms also offer Satellites. Even you can win a seat at the World Series of Poker.

A Satellite is a small, inexpensive tournament where players can win their way to bigger and better tournaments.

Single Table Tournaments will usually have 10 players who have paid an entrance fee and put in a specified amount of money into the prize pool. The top three players in the Tournament receive a percentage of the total prize pool.

Multiple Table Tournaments allow any number of players to enter. Consequently, the prize pool can be very large. Even if you�re not even in the top 10 finishers you can take home some money.

Most Online Poker Rooms offer free tournaments play just like the money tournaments so you can get a hang of what it�s like to play in a tournament without having to lose any money. But you will learn how to hone those Hold�Em skills to compete with the pros. However, be aware though, that players in a free tournament are more likely to play much more reckless than they would if the had money on the line.
