Tournament Games Poker tournaments in UK casinos usually lend themselves to 4 games only. There are clubs that will play 3 card brag or Omaha Hi-Lo but these are not the norm. It is not my intention to produce instructions on How To Play any of the aforementioned games only to say that they are played most commonly in tournaments and are usually available at your chosen club of play. Tournaments playing one of the above four games will usually figure in ALL regular schedules of a casino offering poker tournaments. We ll discuss both now.
Tournaments usually begin with players being given an equal number of chips.
This ensures that the participant of the tournament knows from the outset what his liability is likely to be in order to play in the tournament. The club is guaranteeing a 5000 prize fund. Tournaments are usually played in the evenings from around 9pm and will usually continue, especially if you re a success, until the early hours of the morning. Every club has its own rules dictating prize fund allocation so please check. After all that s why they came in the first place.
