A typical poker tournament will pay somewhere around the top 8% to 15% of finishers – meaning that when playing in these tournaments, you must outlast 92% to 85% of your opponents.
For a beginner player looking to enjoy the excitement of tournament poker, this can, at times, be a daunting task to make the money (along with a steady bleed on the poker bankroll).
By playing in the Beginner Tournaments, you have up to twice the chance to make it into the money when comparing the number of payouts to a typical tournament.
With the prize structure of these events, up to twice as many players are paid – so you will make the money more frequently thus preserving your poker bankroll as you learn playing online poker games.
Beginner Sit and Go Tournaments
You will find these tournaments listed under the “Sit and Go Tournaments” tab in the poker software.
These tournaments are available 24/7 and will start when 10 players buy in and sit down at the table.
Simply open a table and click on an empty seat to play.
Bodog offers four different buy-in amounts for these Beginner Sit and Go Tournaments: $2.20, $4.40, $8.80 and $17.60
When playing in these tournaments, 50% of players are paid. In the standard Sit and Go tournaments, only 30% of players are paid.
Beginner Scheduled Tournaments
These tournaments are scheduled to run at a specific time each day.
You will find them listed under the “Scheduled Tournaments” tab in the poker software.
Registration for these tournaments opens two hours prior to their start time.
Once the “Status” is “Registering” you can click the “Register” button displayed in the bottom right hand corner of the lobby window when the desired tournament is highlighted.
Two minutes prior to “Seating” you will be sat randomly along with the other registered players. Be logged into the poker software during seating and your table will open and you’re ready to get started!
The cost to enter these tournaments is $4 + $0.40.
These tournaments will pay out a varying number of top finishers based on the number of players that register for the tournament – often the number of players paid out is twice as many players as a standard scheduled tournament.
