Members not in their seats will be blinded out.

All members signed in before the end of the entry period are guaranteed a seat.

If wait-listed because the tables are full, members will be seated according to the priority based on call/sign-in time. Wait-listed members will receive a full starting stack with all applicable bonuses and addon options.

After the entry period is over, wait-listed members will be asked for their buyin including all applicable rebuy and addon options. This decision must be made at the same time as all other members make the same decision. There are no refunds if you later decide not to play. Once you buyin, you are committed. Paid seats will be blinded out until the end of the tournament.

Tournament entry period ends after two levels (usually 30 minutes) or the end of any rebuy period and first break (70 minutes).

The Tilted Jack’s monthly game schedule is set at the general monthly meeting. We try to provide a good mix of single, unlimited and no rebuy formats with a variety of buyin (min-max) levels. If you have any suggestions or ideas, please talk to a staff member or come to the monthly meeting!

A unanimous vote by members may override any scheduled game formats or conditions.

Blinds and Blind Structure at Our standard starting stack is 100 big blinds, with regular 2x, 3x and massive 4x Deep Stack tournaments. We do not rush our tournament players to finish so we can get a live game started, and because of our structure, our final tables feature some of the most exciting, competitive, and skill-based finishes! Blinds are 15 minutes and start at “Nickel-Dime” (5-10) with a 10-minute hourly break. The Tilted Jack uses a Nickel-Dime blind structure that starts members out with more big blinds than the 25-50 structure you may be used to. You have more chips, both physically and in relation to the blinds starting out. This means that even with a 1K starting stack, you start deeper than in a 25-50 structure with 4000 chips. The Nickel-Dime format also creates a more competitive final table with a better “big blind to average chip stack” ratio. This creates a better table where it takes a little longer to get to the inevitable “all in fest”. Our tournaments run a little longer, and the prize pools may be chopped more often, but members appreciate the tournament-friendly format. See FAQs for detailed Nickel-Dime analysis.

We would like to remain as consistent as possible with our schedule month-to-month, using Saturdays as our trial for new ideas each month. On Saturdays we would like to change things up each month with something different. We want to offer a good mix of no rebuy, single rebuy and unlimited rebuy formats. A good mix of deep stack and normal stack tournaments, and some bounty tournaments and the occasional surprise or two.
