Multi-Table Tournaments (MTT)

How to play — step by step

1. Register in the lobby up to 24 hours before start; you can also late-register during the reg period.
2. Everyone starts with the same stack (typically 20,000 chips).
3. Blinds increase every 10–15 minutes (turbo: 5 min).
4. Play down to a single winner. Top ~15% of the field is paid.
5. Final table plays as a single 9-max table with escalating pay jumps.

Stakes & formats

• Stakes: Freeroll — $500 buy-in
• Formats: Late registration through level 6, 3× re-entry

Example hand

$22 MTT, 400 entries, bubble hand

• Preflop: 60 players remain, 55 paid. Hero (25 BB) shoves BTN with A♠J♦. SB (12 BB) calls with 9♣9♥. BB folds.
• Runout: Board: Q♠ 6♦ 3♣ J♣ 4♠.

Result: Hero cracks the pair, doubles up and ladders toward the final table.

Quick strategy

• Ladder the pay jumps at the bubble; don't spew.
• Open smaller (2×–2.2×) once antes kick in.
• ICM matters most at the final two tables.
