poker tournements

how do i run a poker tournement as a team game without having team members sitting on the same table?

Dunno if it's what you mean or not, but here's how the teams event at the Aussie Millions works:

At the commencement of play the first partner will begin with a 3000
start bank. At the completion of the first level partners will swap and the
second partner will receive the remainder of the start bank (extra
3000). If the first partner is eliminated during the first level, the second
partner will enter immediately and play the remainder of the first level
and the entire second level.



So basically there's two players sharing the one stack, and they trade places every level.
