lwccasz · May 26, 2026

We have a several type of tournament in poker to play: freezout, knockouts, shootouts, satellites…

I like to play knockouts, what’s your favorite ?
Here’s my last in $0.55 enter:

Mine would be 6max hyper turbo progressive knockout. too much action so much fun

Colbefc · May 26, 2026

My favourite type of tournaments are ones I win, which doesn't happen very often.

Cooking · May 28, 2026

I prefer the regular tournaments, 9-max tables, with 8-10 minutes blinds. I'm old school..lol

MishkaZL · May 28, 2026

I don't like spending money on games, so my favorite tournaments are freerolls. Personally, for me, freerolls are always a priority, since everything else that requires a buy-in is always available and varied.

I really like knockout tournaments, I play them every day for $1 to $5, it's one of my favorites because you don't need to be in ICM to win money.

I agree with this, 9 max 10 minutes its much better value and it suits me better for trying to get some patience and discipline into my game.

KOs and mystery bounty tournaments, although lately the mystery tournaments haven't given me results

Hospedar · Jun 2, 2026

My favorites are 8-max or 9-max with turbo speed and knockouts.

They are usually not boring and they can be very funny to play.

People also doesn't respect bubble as they should here (in micro stakes, at least), which makes things more easier here lol!

Online, you can quickly and conveniently participate in a large number of MTTs without leaving your home. The pace of play is faster, and you can't see your opponents in person, so you have to rely on statistics, hand history, and math. Online platforms often run satellites for major live tournaments, allowing you to qualify for them for a small fee.

My favorite tournaments are usually deep-stack MTTs. They give you plenty of room to play post-flop, make reads, and use strategy instead of being forced into push-or-fold decisions too early. I also enjoy bounty tournaments because every pot can create extra action and interesting decisions. The mix of chip EV and bounty value keeps things exciting throughout the event. What about you—do you prefer deep-stack events, turbos, PKOs, or something else?" ♠️🏆

roberto51 · Jun 3, 2026

My favorite formats are MTT freezeout and Sit&Go in the DoN version.

my_world_myway9 · Jun 3, 2026

Bounty MTT’s. 9-max, 8-10 min blinds I like fast and not to many later registrations!
Games- Omaha 08, 7card stud H/L, Limit Holdem {which is not common to find} Razz which is also hard to find.

Yesterday I made this on a knockout

theoxy · Jun 4, 2026

BigDice75 · Jun 5, 2026

My absolute favorites are Knockout (PKO) tournaments, especially if they have a relatively small field and some juicy overlay! 🎯
I love PKOs because you don’t need to survive until the traditional ITM to secure a profit; you can make your buy-in back (and then some) just by busting a few players early on. If you combine that format with a smaller field, the variance drops significantly compared to those massive fields with thousands of runners. And well, if the tournament has an overlay... that's just the perfect recipe for pure value! 💰 Let the bounty hunting begin! ⚔️

BillyR23 · Jun 5, 2026

My favorite type of poker tournament is the 9-max freezeout mtts as I like the no rebuys/re-entries games * once you're out, you're done... I also like the deep starting stacks, slower pace - at least early and even mid game... plus, (IMO) this games are the best practice for live poker mtts and also a great way to improve patience and discipline!

wushibala · Jun 6, 2026

My favorite tournaments are the ones with no rebuys or add-ons. I also prefer tournaments with no re-entries and where late registration lasts no more than an hour.

successlaw · Jun 6, 2026

I like freezeouts and sattelites

TerryBLE · Jun 6, 2026

Freezeout, Deep Stack and Progressive Knockout.
I also like other types, but these are the ones I've been playing most frequently lately.

ramdon p358 · Jun 6, 2026

My favorite tournaments are those with a progressive elimination reward format and those with a mystery reward

Roller · Jun 6, 2026

Freezeout Tournaments are definitely my favorite tournament.

Claudiunm · Jun 6, 2026

My current favorite type of tournament is the Mystery Battle Royale on GGPoker because it has two features that I find interesting: the fast-paced game where folding moves you to another table, and the Mystery Bounty when you reach the final table. I hope that one day there will be larger tournaments with this format.

Poker Orifice · Jun 7, 2026

Freezeout tournaments.
I used to prefer 9-handed or 8-handed (don't like 10-handed) but lately I prefer 6-handed.
