Shootout Tournaments

Shootout Format
Shootout tournaments differ from standard tournaments in that starting tables do not rebalance as players are eliminated. Instead, each starting table is an independent “heat” which plays down to one player, who then advances to the next round.

For example, a “shootout” event might begin with 1,000 players playing at 100 ten-handed tables. The winner of each table advancing to play at ten more ten-handed tables in the second round. The ten winners of those tables would then play a final ten-handed table to determine a winner.
