Tournament play can be cheap and rewarding

During the articles we write here at onlinecasino.ie we often mention tournaments but we have never done a feature about online casino tournaments as such so it is probably about time. Playing in tournaments is not all about big money although the best known tournaments do tend to be large poker tournaments but it is also possible to play tournaments at other games for much less money. For example at Ladbrokes which we feature here at www.onlinecasino.ie you can play in slots tournaments for as little as $1 and in fact Ladbrokes also have freeroll tournaments which as the name suggests costs nothing to enter. There are a number of different types of tournament but most of them last only around i hour and playtime can be as little as 5 minutes. The differences between the tournament types is associated with whether they are a one time buy in like “survivor” where there are three rounds with the bottom players being knocked out each round or “one shot” where play time is seven minutes and the highest score takes the pot or whether you can have multiple buy ins to try to increase your top score. Scheduled tournaments start at a specific time and last a specific time often several days and the player can come and go as they please and study the leader board to decide whether to play or not. Sit and Go tournaments start once the required number of players has been reached and all players play at the same time; these are generally of much shorter duration. Blackjack tournaments are also available through onlinecasino.ie at Ladbrokes with the same choice of scheduled or sit and go and of course again free tournaments. Tournament play is a great way to test your skill for very little money but the prizes can be very attractive.
