Multi-Entry Tournaments is now available at Full Tilt Poker

Full Tilt Poker now gives you the chance to multiple your chances to make a big tournament score with Multi-Entry Tournaments, a unique tournament format which is exclusive to Full Tilt Poker.

How the Multi-Entry Tournaments Works
Multi-Entry Tournaments gives you the option to register for the same tournament numerous times, it means that you can “multi-table” a single tournament!

Each one of your entries in a Multi-Entry Tournament will have its own chip stack and be dealt its own hand. Multi-Entry Tournament gives you the chance to register multiple entries at the same time, or use additional entries as a “second chance” if your first entry is eliminated from the tournament in the early stages of play.

Your different entries will always be seated at different tables, and if you have more entries than there are tables left in the tournament, two of your entries will be “merged” into one.

How to Get Started
You can find the Multi-Entry Tournaments in a variety of different tournament formats at Full Tilt Poker, including Rush Poker, Knockout and Rebuy variants.

In order to find a Multi-Entry Tournament, look for tournaments identified with the following icon in the game list:

Once you’ve found the tournament you’d like to play, you should open the tournament lobby and click the Register Now button. So you can select the number of entries you’d like to register for the tournament in the buy-in screen:

When the tournament starts, game play proceeds as usually as in any other standard tournament at Full Tilt Poker, except that you have more than one life to live!


Keeping Track of Your Entries
While at the table, you can check the status of any of your entries by clicking the Tourney Info button:

Otherwise, you can open the tournament lobby and then check the “Show My Entrants” box above the player list to display only your entries for that specific tournament:

Entry Mergers

Since two of your entries cannot be seated at the same table, in case you have more entries than there are tables left in the tournament, two of your entries will merge together. In that case, when an entry merger takes place, whichever entry is being moved from a broken table will be "merged" together with your entry that has the smallest stack.

For example, if you have three entries and there are three tables left in a Multi-Entry Tournament. One table breaks, so your entry from that table will merge with your entry with the smallest stack and the chips for both of those entries will be combined into one stack.

Your avatar will flash “MERGE” to let you know when an entry merger takes place:

To the rest of the players who are seated at the table, a pop-up will also appear to inform them of the merger:
