How To Manage Your Tournaments?

This is the second of 5 instruction blogs on how to participate in online pool tournaments at CueSportz.com.

This step shows you that you have now clicked on TOURNAMENTS whilst signed in and have been presented with the Tournament List screen. On this screen, you will be able to manage all of your online tournaments. This includes entering and re-entering, withdrawing and checking on the status and results.

You will notice that there are 3 tabs across the top of the screen. These are:

  1. All Tournaments - this displays a list of all tournaments in the system.
  2. My Tournaments - this displays only the tournaments that you have entered
  3. Past Winners - this displays a list of completed tournaments and shows the results
Each tournament listing contains a series of fields that helps you determine whether that event is right for you to participate. These include:

  1. Status - shows you whether a tournament is open for registration, coming soon, in progress or in fact is completed.
  2. Prize Money - this displays the total amount of prize money to be won for that tournament in Cue Credits. 1USD = 100 Cue Credits (cc's)
  3. Game - this displays what type of game is played for the tournament i.e. 8-Ball, 9-Ball, 10-Ball.
  4. Players - this shows you the number of maximum players that are allowed to enter.
  5. Tournament Name - is the name given for that particular tournament.
  6. Entry Fee - the cost of entering a tournament in Cue Credits. if free it will say FREE.
  7. Time Clock - shows you the time left in the current status of a tournament. For example, if the tournament is coming soon, it will display the countdown time remaining before you will be able to enter the tournament.
  8. Action - these buttons will change colour depending on the status. Different actions include enter now, withdraw, enter game room, play now etc.
TIP: If you click on the name of the Tournament, it will bring up a screen over the top that will display more details about the tournament such as prize money breakdown and scheduling times for rounds.

Ok, now that you have reviewed the tournament list screen, you would have probably chosen a tournament you want to enter. Simply click on the Enter Now button for a tournament that is open and has not been filled yet. You will be prompted to accept some terms and conditions first before you are officially entered.
