Learn More About Rummy Tournaments
Online rummy tournaments are competitive events where players from all across
the Indian subcontinent compete against each other to win cash prizes or
other rewards. The Rummy tournaments are multiplayer rummy games played
against multi players on multi tables where the players with the highest
number of chips move forward to the next round.
There are two types of rummy tournaments in RummyBo: cash or freeroll. Cash
tournaments are where players need to pay an entry fee (buy-in) while in
freeroll tournaments the entry fee is 0 (free entry).
Types of Rummy Tournaments
As stated above, there are two types of Rummy tournaments:
Cash Rummy Tournaments
Free RummyTournaments
Cash Rummy Tournament
In cash rummy tournaments, players pay an entry fee to participate and have a
chance to win a share of the prize pool. The entry fee varies depending on
the tournament but usually ranges from a few rupees to several thousand
rupees. The prize pool is determined by the total amount of entry fees paid
by all the participants, with a big percentage of the pool going to the
top-performing players.
The most important things to know about cash tournaments are:
- You need to pay an entry fee
- More competitive than free rummy tournaments
- You will need to make a deposit to enter the tournament
Free Rummy Tournaments
Online free entry tournaments (known as freeroll tournaments) are rummy
tournaments which require no entry fee to play. These free to play run at
fixed intervals and offer prizes in real cash or non-monetary rewards such
as free tickets to cash tournaments.
The most important things to know about freeroll tournaments are:
- You can enter for free
- You win real cash
- No deposit required
Online Rummy Tournament Rules
- When a tournament starts, each player in the tournament is allotted a
fixed number of chips.
- Players are assigned a seat in the table depending on the number of
participants.
- The tournament will be played for a fixed number of deals with two
standard decks of 52 cards including printed jokers.
- At the end of each round, the winner will get chips from the other
players at the table depending on their points.
- The player with the lowest score wins the round and moves to the next
level.
- The process is repeated until there is only one winner left.
How to Play Online Rummy Tournaments
- Thirteen cards are dealt to each player at the start of the game. The
remaining cards are kept face down on the table (closed deck) with the
top card placed face up (this becomes the discard pile/open deck).
- One random card from the deck is selected as the Wild Joker. All cards
of that same face value can also be used as Wild Jokers.
- Players pick one card from the closed or open deck and discard one card
to the discard pile.
- Players need to arrange all the cards in their hand to form at least one
pure sequence and other valid sequences/sets.
- Once a player has at least one pure sequence and other valid
sequence/sets by grouping their 13 cards, they need to make a
declaration.
- The first player to make a valid declaration wins the deal/round.
- After the predetermined number of deals are completed, the points are
tallied for all players.
- The player with the lowest score wins the round and moves to the next
level.
- The process is repeated until there is only one winner left.
How to Win at Online Rummy Tournaments?
- Practice. Practice. Practice.
- Stakes: Start with lower stakes and then move up.
- Make a pure sequence fast: Since you cannot win without a pure sequence,
always try to make a pure sequence early on in the game
- Discard cards with high-value: Aces, Kings, Queens and Jacks are cards
with high point values. Discard unmatched high cards as soon as possible
to decrease the risk of losing by a big margin.
- Get connecting cards: Connecting cards will help you form sequences
and/or sets. E.g: you can use 4🧡 with 2🧡 and 3🧡 (2🧡-3🧡-4🧡) or with
5🧡 and 6🧡 (4🧡-5🧡-6🧡).
- Collecting jokers: Collect jokers to replace high value cards with.
Also, since jokers cannot be used to form pure sequences, use them to
make other sets and sequences.
- Avoid the discard pile: If you can help it, try not to pick up cards
from the discard pile as it gives away the kind of hand you are trying
to make.
- Check before declaring: An invalid declaration can be the difference
between winning and losing. Always check your cards before declaring.
- Observe your opponents: Always keep an eye on your opponent and their
moves.
