• Multi-Stage Tournaments: A multi-stage tournament is a tournament in which players buy-in in rounds, and compete to get to the next round. The winner(s) of each round are given entry in to the following round by way of direct entry or treasure. Multi-Stage tournaments operate as multiple single table tournaments where the winner moves on to the next round. Players begin with an equal stack of chips at the first table. Play continues until each player loses all of their chips. As each player is eliminated they are removed from the tournament and play continues among the remaining players. Play continues until there is only one player remaining who controls all the chips. This winner (and in certain cases second, third and even fourth place) are awarded entry into the next round or are awarded treasure. The winner(s) can then buy into the next round, and continue their way towards overall victory.

Each player begins the tournament with the exact same amount of chips. Play continues until one player has all of the chips. In Mahjong play may end due to a maximum number of hands played or a time limit. Please see the tournament lobby for details.
