How do I do this?

Once you have logged in, you can join a tournament or Sit & Go in seconds:

  1. Click on the 'Quick Seat' tab in the upper left-hand corner of the Lobby.
  2. Select 'Tourney'.
  3. Sit & Go Tournaments: Choose your game type, buy-in, speed and number of players, and hit 'Play Now'.
  4. Scheduled Tournaments: Choose your preferred game, buy-in range, type and starting time. You'll see a list of tournaments matching the options you've selected. Choose the tournament you wish to play and hit 'Play Now'.

Once the tournament starts, your table will pop up and you'll be automatically seated.

Or you can go to the 'All Games' tab, and chose any tournament you like from Sit & Go, Spin & Go, Kick-Off and Tourney tabs. 

You can check which tournaments you are registered for by pressing 'Ctrl + R' on your keyboard.
