The following procedures, format and rules applies to all Multi-Table Poker Tournaments.
- Players MUST register in advance to play. (Registration typically ends 5 minutes prior to the start of the Tournament.) Go to the Lobby, click Tournaments, click the Multi-table tab, select the Tournament you wish to play, and then click the Register tab.
- You pay your buy-in and entry fee when you register.
- Poker Tournaments at Empire Poker begin on time and players will be blinded/anted off if they are not there.
- All seats are randomly assigned.
- You may be allowed to "unregister" from a tournament while registration is still open.
- All Real Money tournaments use 15 min levels. Exceptions will be noted (Semi-Finals)·
- There will be a 5 minute break every hour.
- Tables will be broken (condensed) from the highest number to the lowest number.
- Tables will be balanced (Max occupancy - Min occupancy) according to the following variance:
** 3 players if the number of running tables > 10 ** 2 players if the number of running tables is > 2 and < 10 ** 1 player if the number of running tables is 2
- In transferring players from one table to another to keep tables balanced, we try to be "as fair as possible" to players to maintain the same distance from the blind after the transfer.
- The difference in distance from the blind for a player, before and after the transfer, is NOT required to be zero.
- Players inherit any obligations (taking the Blinds) or receive any benefits (getting the button) when transferred as a result of their table breaking down.
- Players are dealt in the next hand after a transfer (unless they are moved into the small blind position). Players are informed when they are transferred (and when others are transferred to their table).
- Hand-For-Hand is a feature used in all Multi Table Poker Tournaments that allows tables to play the same exact number of hands at critical times. The following is the chart used to determine when Hand-For-Hand will start and stop. Noted exceptions are in tournaments where a set # of prizes are begin given out (EmpirePoker.com Million Semi Finals).
