2006 World Series of Poker Main Event
A home poker tournament in progress.
A poker tournament is a tournament where players compete 🔔 by playing poker. It can feature as few as two players playing on a single table (called a "heads-up" tournament), 🔔 and as many as tens of thousands of players playing on thousands of tables. The winner of the tournament is 🔔 usually the person who wins every poker chip in the game and the others are awarded places based on the 🔔 time of their elimination. To facilitate this, in most tournaments, blinds rise over the duration of the tournament. Unlike in 🔔 a ring game (or cash game), a player's chips in a tournament cannot be cashed out for money and serve 🔔 only to determine the player's placing.
Buy-ins and prizes [ edit ]
To enter a typical tournament, a player pays a fixed 🔔 buy-in and at the start of play is given a certain quantity of tournament poker chips. Commercial venues may also 🔔 charge a separate fee, or withhold a small portion of the buy-in, as the cost of running the event. Tournament 🔔 chips have only notional value; they have no cash value, and only the tournament chips, not cash, may be used 🔔 during play. Typically, the amount of each entrant's starting tournament chips is an integer multiple of the buy-in. Some tournaments 🔔 offer the option of a re-buy or buy-back; this gives players the option of purchasing more chips. In some cases, 🔔 re-buys are conditional (for example, offered only to players low on or out of chips) but in others they are 🔔 available to all players (called add-ons). Player with no chips remaining (and has exhausted or declined all re-buy options, if 🔔 any are available) are eliminated from the tournament.
