ABSTRACT:
A poker tournament commences with first groups of several or more players playing poker games at different tables. The players are initially provided with a certain number of game chips for use in the games. When players lose their chips, they drop out of the tournament games. When the total number of players remaining in the games declines to a specific number (which is an exponential product of the number two), they are matched up into pairs each playing in individual one-on-one games. The winners of the individual games are rematched with other winners into pairs and this rematching successively continues until one player has won all of the chips in the tournament.
