Frequently Asked Questions
When do tournaments run on salty.poker?
The plan is a daily tournament schedule — a featured event every evening, plus the Friday Main and weekend High Roller. Deep stacks, turbos, progressive knockouts, and Sunday specials rotate through the week, with guaranteed prize pools that grow as the player base does.
What are the buy-ins and guarantees?
Planned buy-ins run from around $30 up to $500, with guarantees scaling from $3,000 on weeknight events to $50,000 for the Saturday High Roller. The exact schedule firms up as we approach launch — the numbers shown are the target structure.
Is there late registration?
Yes. Every multi-table tournament includes a late-registration window, so you can buy in and take your seat for the first few levels even if you start a little behind.
Are there satellites to bigger events?
Yes. Low-cost satellites feed the larger guaranteed tournaments, so a small buy-in can win your way into a Main Event or High Roller seat.
How are tournament payouts structured?
Standard tournament payouts — roughly the top 15% of the field cashes, with the prize pool weighted toward the final table. Progressive knockout events split the pool between bounties and the standard payout ladder.
Is there a fee on tournament buy-ins?
Yes — the small number after the plus sign (for example, $50 + $5) is the entry fee. It replaces rake and there is no additional cut taken from the prize pool. What is guaranteed is what gets paid out.
