Tournaments
The casino operator offers you the opportunity to test your playing skills against other players by joining in tournament games. Click on the Tournaments button in the casino menu to open the tournament lobby.
The tournament lobby is a separate window that opens on top of the casino lobby. From this window you can register to play in a tournament as well as see all important information about available tournaments. To play in a tournament you pay an entry fee for which you receive a number of game rounds as well as a number of tournament chips/credits to use when you play. If you run out of chips/credits, or game rounds, you cannot play anymore and you are out of the tournament, unless the tournament allows re-buys. That way, you can buy additional chips/credits and keep playing (you receive additional game rounds as well when you make a re-buy).
Register to Play
All tournaments are listed at the top of the window and if you select a tournament, you see detailed information about the tournament in the bottom half of the window (click More info for further information). You can register for tournaments when it says Register in the STATUS column. To register, select the tournament of your choice and click REGISTER. Click REGISTER again to confirm your choice. The entry fee is deducted from your casino account. If you do not want to register, click CANCEL to return to the tournament lobby.
You can register and play in as many tournaments as you like, but once you have registered for a tournament you cannot register for that tournament again. Have you missed to register for an ongoing tournament you really want to play in? Do not despair! Unless the registration time is over, just select the tournament, click PLAY and then PLAY again to pay the entry fee and take part in the action.
Withdraw Registration
If you do not want to participate in a tournament you have registered for but not yet started to play in, simply select the tournament and click WITHDRAW and your entry fee will be returned to your casino account. Note that the status of the tournament must be Register.
Play
Select the tournament you registered for and click PLAY.
While you are playing you can check how the tournament is progressing. At the top of the window you find the Tournament Info dialogue. Here you find information about the tournament, your current status and position as well as the current top five players. Click the down-arrow to minimize the dialogue window.
You can stop playing at anytime during the duration of the tournament and then return to play. To leave the tournament, click EXIT and you will be returned to the tournament lobby. You can also click Back to Tournament Lobby in the Tournament Info dialogue. To play again, just select the tournament and click PLAY.
Click CLOSE to close the tournament window and return to the casino lobby.
Note that bets made while playing in a tournament are not counted towards any bonus wagering requirements, loyalty points or cash back bonuses. Tournament chips/credits are not included in your real account sum.
Re-buys
If the tournament allows re-buys and you run out of chips/credits, or game rounds, you can keep playing by re-buying additional chips/credits and game rounds (click RE-BUY). If you do not have enough funds in your casino account and want to make a re-buy, click CASHIER to add funds to your casino account.
