Television coverage of poker tournaments has tended to make us believe that you need to be good at a game to enter but contrary to popular belief entering tournaments doesn’t have to cost a fortune and can actually be a great way of honing your skills in a new game All online casinos that we feature on this site offer tournaments at some time or another and the most common ones are not poker as you might imagine but roulette, blackjack and casino slots. You will need to be a registered player at the online casino of your choice and in this case it is better to be registered at several casinos online as that will give you a better choice of tournaments. Many of the tournaments can cost as little as €1 to enter and in fact there are even some free tournaments but you can also pay more; the prize pool for the winner is dependent upon the entry fee and the maximum number of participants which will be shown on the tournament log in page. If you enter a tournament at an online casino each entrant will be given the same number of chips which have no value outside the tournament play and the winner or winners are those with the most chips at the end of play. Blackjack tournaments do require an element of skill and knowledge of the game but roulette and slot machine tournaments can be a great way to pass the time with very little or no outlay; if you haven’t tried it find the tournaments page on your favourite online casino and see what is available most days of the week.
