Online Poker Freeroll Tournaments
Multi table tournaments are a great way to enjoy playing poker online.
What are online poker multi table tournaments?
A multi table tournament, or abbreviated MTT, is the internet poker term for what most people would call a standard tournament in the brick and mortar world. You will see this term listed on almost every top online poker site in existence. Compared to a SNG, which abbreviation typically a means a sit ‘n go tournament played on only one table, a multi table tourtnament will have hundreds and sometimes thousands of players.
A freeroll is a free online poker tournament that usually awards real money prizes. Sometimes poker sites will offer tournament tickets to players in lieu of cash. Free rolls are structured with standard tables and starting chips, but blind levels are often shorter to finish the game in a shorter timespan.
Before clicking the buy-in make sure you know the difference, because a large multi table tournament may take the better part of a day to complete vs less than an hour for most sit ‘n go tournaments!

Difference strategies for multi table tournaments and sit ‘n go’s
While a sit ‘n go is essentially a final table with even starting chips, a multi table tournament is very different. Fundamentally, there are many differences in the strategy you will employ for the start of a multi table tournament.
Here’s a list of related articles:
Different blind structures
For example, the blind structures are often more player friendly in a multi table tournament than in a sit ‘n go (which is designed for people wanting a quick poker game). With the progressive/slower blind structure in place, you can play more of a waiting game. This allows you to play premium starting hands, which is very important in the early stages of these types of tournaments.
For a list of premium starting hands, please see our Texas Hold’em Action Chart to get a better idea of which cards are best to play at this point.
Playing on the bubble
Another strategy that you must master to have a good run deep into these multi table tournaments is playing on the bubble. The bubble is reached when there is only one player left to be eliminated before the payouts begin.
For example, if there are 150 players left and the tournament pays out to position number 149 then you’ve reached the bubble. If your chip stack is large enough, it’s very wise here to push around the smaller stacks. These players are desperate to cash in at this point and are normally waiting for another small(er) stack to get busted out so that they will at least get something in return for having played poker for the last number of hours.
Easy moves at this point in the tournament are hands such as Ace/X in late position. If you have small stacks to your left and the action is folded to you holding such a hand, you should always raise. Always, there are no exceptions to this rule unless there’s a larger stack to your left or a smaller stack that’s still capable of taking a large percentage of your chips, leaving you crippled. Even if you’re called or re-raised all-in here, you will almost always want to call with any Ace or King.
Coin flips
Coin flips with short stacks are very common, and they are often prone to push all-in with hands like Jack-Nine, or suited connectors. Your Ace or King high here is often the best hand indeed.
