What is a Triple Shootout tourney.

Can anyone please explain what a Triple Shootout tourney is (Max 729 entrants). Is it anything like a HU match.

Sort of? You beat the table you are sitting at, then the winner of their table goes to the next round, this happens again and then you go into the third round. The third round is either the final table or it's the tables that lead to the final table.

But it's pretty much last person left at his table advances to next set of tables, and so on.

A Triple Shootout is 3 SnG's essentially.

You only are playing against the people at your own table.

If you win the First "Shootout" you go to round 2, 81 players left.

You win your 2nd table you reach the final table.

The good, you go to the final table with equal stacks
The bad, you go to the final table with equal stacks - and you have to basically win 2 SNG's in a row to get to the final table, and you have to win 3 SNG's in a row to win the whole thing.

Ok I get it, that means no eliminated player gets replaced by players from other tables.
Kind of like several 9 person sit and go's,

Pretty much, yeah - which is why the entries are capped at such an odd number.

Live there's sometimes variations where the top two from each table go through and take their chip stacks with them (Crown run them during championship weeks from time to time) but I haven't seen it done online.

Ok just to see that I got it correct,
729 entrants divided by 9 seats per table = 81 9 person sit n go.
then 81 divided by 9 = 9 9 person sit and go's
then 9 entrants left = 1 9 person sit n go.

Thank you for all your responces.
