Blackjack players in the UK who are not able to get enough of their favorite online blackjack game should watch out for the regular blackjack tournament that is held at the Littlewoods Casino. In this month of April, Littlewoods Casino is holding the blackjack tournament on the 27th of April. This date has been chosen since players will have two days off in the same week and would be able to play lots of blackjack during their time off. Players have £2605 as a prize pool up for grabs.
Players can qualify for this promotion by depositing £60 or more anytime between 00:00 and 23:59 on the 27th of May 2011. Blackjack players will earn points on that day as and when they play different blackjack games. At the end of the day if you are one of the 50 players who have earned a lot of points at the end of the tournament, you will win a share of the £2605 prize pool.
The size of the share will be determined by how many players compare against each other. The prize payout for the 1st rank is £625, 2nd rank gets the player £465, the 3rd to 5th ranks gets the players £155, the 6th to 30th ranks gets the players £30 and the 31st to the 50th ranks gets the players £15.

Look at how the competition worked
Tournament reports become more useful when you separate entry costs, scoring and prizes. Some competitions rank chip totals; others use points from qualifying play. The original report below records its own event format. A tournament from this archive is not an open registration or a current schedule.
- Entry
- Identify the fee, invitation or qualifying play described.
- Scoring
- Check whether rank depended on chips, points, survival or another measure.
- Prize structure
- Distinguish the whole prize pool from the amount paid to one winner.
Is a prize pool the same as the first-place prize?
No. A prize pool can be divided across several finishing places. Read the reported payout structure and scoring method together before comparing events.
