Players in charity tournaments must be a minimum of 18 years of age.
All seats at charity tournaments are pre-reserved. Date of event walk-ins will be taken if space is available.
Payment of seat must be made at registration.
There are no refunds for seats unless the event is canceled by the host charity.
Check-in for tournament begins at the venue a minimum of one hour prior to start time.
Table and seat assignments will be randomly determined unless the client sells a table sponsorship and the sponsor elects to provide players at their table.
Late players will be designated a seat and their blinds will be posted for them through the first two rounds. After two rounds, the remaining chips will be divided among the other seated players at that table.
There will be a maximum of 10 players per table scheduled. Additional players may be added at the tournament directors discretion.
Starting position for the dealer button will be at the Directors discretion.
Tournament director and Floor staff have final say on rule interpretation.
Small blind is directly to the dealer buttons left. The big blind is directly to the small blinds left. Blinds and dealer button move around the table in a clockwise direction.
If the number of players differs by two or more between any two tables, one player must move from the highest populated table to the lowest populated table. The dealer will choose a player as close as possible that is playing a hand in the same position (seat) relative to the button.
When a player loses all of his chips he is eliminated from the tournament, unless there are re-buy or add-on provisions.
No Limit Hold’em tournaments run approximately 4 hours. However, tournaments may continue until one player wins all the chips or a chip count is held. This is up to each clients discretion.
The timer is stopped during breaks to the final table and during any disputes that occur which require attention of the floor personnel or the tournament director to resolve.
