Tournament Payout Structure
Know what you’re playing for.
By clicking on a tournament of interest in the main Tournament area, you’ll be able to view the Tournament Lobby. All of the relevant tournament information is housed here, including the number of entrants; type of tournament and of course, the prize details. The Tournament Information button, located on the bottom right of the Tournament Lobby will detail the prize schedule and what’s up for grabs. If you’re playing in a rebuy and add-on event, note the payout structure will not be announced until the final prize pool is reached (after the add-on period).
The payout structure, percentage wise, listed below is our standard prize allotment schedule for tournaments played on Cake Poker. Please note that payout structures may vary. When you click on a Tournament in our Lobby, you’ll find a Tournament Lobby screen will appear. This will detail the basic information needed to start your game including starting chip stack, break information, game type and more. By further choosing the 'Tournament Information' button, located on the bottom right hand corner of this screen, you’ll find confirmation of the payout structure for that particular event.
