Tournaments Schedule



Noble Poker offers its players three types of poker tournaments:
  • Multi-Table Tournaments
  • Single Table Tournaments
  • Satellite Tournaments
There’s no better venue for a massive range of poker tournaments with sensational prizes than Noble Poker, where single, multi-table buy-ins from $10 - $300 as well as frequent freerolls and guaranteed prizes tournaments run 24/7! All tournaments are managed and monitored professionally from start to finish, with dedicated supervision and helpful online support, alongside groundbreaking anti-collusion systems to protect players.

Tournament prize pools will be paid upon full and final completion of the individual tournament. If, for any reason, a tournament is not completed, the entry fee will be refunded to every participating player and the tournament will be rescheduled.

Multi-Table Tournaments

Although the general play of the game remains similar to cash games, there are certain rules that apply to tournaments only:

Disconnections

If for any reason a player loses his/her connection, play will continue. Blinds and antes will continue to be posted automatically. A player should log back on as soon as possible to continue play. Players will be blinded/anted out of the tournament if they do not reconnect.

Players MUST accept the risk of disconnection. This can and does occur. (Log back on and continue to play as quickly as possible.) At no time will we assume responsibility for disconnected players regardless of cause. If a player is disconnected during the play of a hand, they will be given a period of 30 seconds during which they can reconnect. If the player is unable to do so, their hand is folded - unless they are "all in". If you choose to sit out, you are deemed 'away from the table' and will still receive cards that will be folded in turn. Blinds will also continue to be taken when appropriate. If you time-out or disconnect, you will be automatically marked 'away from the table' until you uncheck the appropriate box and re-join the game.

Play

You can join by clicking the "Tournament" tab in the lobby and choosing a tournament that is still open for registration. When your chosen tournament starts your table will automatically open. All seats are assigned randomly. Please bear in mind that if you're already playing in the maximum number of tables allowed (3 tables when in top view mode and 1 table when inside view mode) you'll be presented with a dialog box asking you whether you'd like to quit one of the tables so the tournament table launches. You will be marked 'away from the table' until you join the tournament table.

Blinds increase at regular intervals as the tournament progresses and are termed 'levels'. Unlike cash games, blinds must be posted and cannot be missed. This is done automatically. To make it fair for everyone a “dead” button is sometimes used to achieve this.

Noble Poker will keep tables balanced in terms of the number of players seated at each; consequently, as players are eliminated, you may be re-seated at a different table. As this is done randomly you may experience it several times during a tournament, so do not worry – it is not a bug in the program. As the tournament progresses and the number of players is gradually dwindling, Noble Poker will close tables in order of the highest available until the final table is reached. Once a player loses all their chips they are automatically removed from the table, unless a 'Buy In' facility is available. ‘Buy In' Tournaments provide the facility to purchase a new set of chips for a limited time should you require more.

Single Table Tournaments (STT’s)

A single-table tournament is a tournament played on one table with up to ten players. These are run on a fill-and-go basis. As players register the seats fill up and as soon as a table is full the tournament starts. Note that there is no break period – once started these tournaments will continue until the very end.

In STT’s three prizes are paid:

1st place takes 50% of the pot
2nd place takes 30% of the pot
3rd place takes 20% of the pot

Wide ranges of buy in stakes are offered and these can be seen by checking the "Tournaments" tab in the lobby.

Satellite Tournaments

Satellites are also known as “qualifier” tournaments – taking first place in one of them usually guarantees a place in a larger or more prestigious tournament or main event. Both single table tournaments and multi-table tournaments can serve as qualifiers for special tournaments and events - the qualifiers are called "Satellite Tournaments" and the winner/s wins a seat in the main event.
