Tournament Rules

How MTTs and SNGs run on MavoPoker — registration, blind structure, payouts and disconnect protection.

Registration

  • Registration opens 60 minutes before start time.
  • Late registration lasts through the end of level 6 (typical 60–90 minutes).
  • Re-entry is allowed up to 3 times per event, unless marked Freezeout.

Blind Structure

  • Turbo: 5-minute levels, 20% blind increase
  • Regular: 10-minute levels, ante from level 3
  • Deep Stack: 15-minute levels, 200 BB starting stack

Payouts (ICM)

Final-table deal chops use the Independent Chip Model. In-app negotiation is available once play is 3-handed; all remaining players must agree. Chip-chop deals require the leader's approval when ICM difference exceeds 15%.

Disconnect Protection

  • Up to 90 seconds per hand of protected time.
  • 15 minutes total protection per tournament.
  • All-in disconnects are dealt out to showdown automatically.

Fair Play

Any form of chip-dumping, soft-play, ghosting or bot use results in disqualification, forfeiture of the prize and permanent ban. See the Anti-Collusion Policy.
