How to play Multiplayer Blackjack Tournaments

To take part in Multiplayer Blackjack Tournaments, Players come together in a global online card room where they compete with each other against the House. The objective is simple – complete the game with the highest amount of tournament credits and win the predetermined prize! Online Blackjack Tournaments are played over several rounds, with Players getting eliminated according to the tourney rules as the competition progresses. The Player who advances through all the rounds and achieves first place in the final round, is declared the tournament winner. Online Blackjack Tournaments are played with tournament credits that don’t have cash value. All participating Players begin each round with the same amount of tournament credits. The Player or Players with the highest amount of tournament credits left at the end of the round, will advance to the next round.

There are two types of tournaments to choose from. Scheduled Blackjack Tournaments start at a fixed time. When this time commences, so does the game. Sit ‘n’ Go Blackjack Tournaments can only start once the required number of players has registered. The final results for both are revealed at the end of each tournament.

The Rules that apply to Multiplayer Blackjack Tournaments:

1. Players always have to be registered for a tournament if they want to play in it.
2. Depending on the tournament, the maximum number of players that can enter the tournament may be limited or not.
3. Tournaments are at all times played right to the end.
4. If a Player withdraws from a tournament before it is over, they will forfeit their entry fee.
5. If a Player for some reason does not return to a tournament, they will forfeit their entry fee.
6. Should you register for a tournament and happen to not be logged on to the casino system at the time the tournament starts, you will forfeit your entry fee. Tournaments are considered over when the time limit expires or the Player has used up all their credits. If for some reason a tournament that is in progress gets cancelled, and cannot be paused and postponed by a few minutes, each Player will be refunded their total entry fee to the tournament.

Should a Player be disconnected from the system during tournament play, the following rules apply:

• Should a Player be disconnected during play, the game will auto play on the Player’s behalf by hitting until a soft 12 or better is achieved – thereafter the hand will Stand.
• Should the Player re-connect within the tournament time, they can continue playing in the tournament.

It’s important to note that Tournament credits have no value other than as counters in the tournament. Tournament coins therefore don’t have any cash-out value.
