Scheduled Tournaments

Hundreds of players and huge prize pools—Scheduled Tournaments are pure poker excitement.

Players are required to register in advance of the tournament. At start time, they are equally distributed over as many as hundreds of tables. As the tournament progresses and players are eliminated, tables are consolidated. The winner of a tournament is the player who ends up with all of the chips. Since so many players participate, the prize pool for a tournament without pre-set limits can sometimes be enormous, even paying out to as many as one hundred players on occasion.

Everest Poker offers a range of tournaments every day—satellites and freerolls, low and high stakes. Review our Tournament Calendar to see our weekly tournament schedule.

Note that in some Scheduled Tournaments, you can also win Tournament Tokens, which can be used to buy in to other tournaments.

 

Scheduled Tournament Styles

Style RebuyRebuy

In most tournaments, players will start with an equal amount of chips and play until their chip stack is depleted. In Rebuy Tournaments, players are allowed to purchase an additional stack of chips for an additional fee. However, you are only allowed to rebuy when you run out of chips or when your stack is equal to or below your starting chip amount. 

Style Rebuy AddonRebuy & Add-On

Add-ons are similar to rebuys in that they allow tournament players to purchase chips in addition to their original stack. Unlike rebuys, however, add-ons allow players to purchase additional chips regardless of how many chips they currently have. 

Style Deep StackDeep Stack

In most Everest Poker tournaments, players start out with 1,000 chips in their stack. In Deep Stack tournaments, players start out with 2,000 to 3,000 chips. 

Style TurboTurbo

Unlike the typical 10-minute blind schedule, Turbo-style Tournaments raise the blinds and antes every 4 minutes. View the Blinds and Ante Schedule. 

Style SpeedSpeed

Speed Tournaments give players 15-second decision timers in which to act when it is their turn. If a player doesn't act before time runs out, he or she will be presumed to fold or, when possible, to check.
