Sounds like you’re ready for what’s next.
 
The MTV STACKED Masters Tournaments represent the most advanced tourney system in the land of online poker. Like flies to, um, honey, these officially-sanctioned tournaments will attract the toughest STACKED opponents you’ll ever face.
 
If you want to reach the pinnacle of STACKED achievement, get your name on the top of the leaderboard and adorn your virtual fingers with rings that would fill Gollum with envy, you’re gonna have to play (and win) in the MTV STACKED Masters Tournaments.
 
Soon after STACKED hits the stores, we’ll be running these elite competitions every day so you’ll always have a chance to play. All you need to join the fun is the tournament buy-in, which you can scratch together playing online against other players, either in non-sanctioned games or in other MTV STACKED Masters Tournaments. Keep building up your bankroll and you can buy into more and more exclusive tournaments.

MULTI-TABLE TOURNAMENTS
So how do thousands of wanna-be champs get whittled down to a final table? At the start of the tournament, you get assigned to a 9-player table. Send enough of those pretenders packing and your table gets combined with another table and you go at it again and again until it’s just you and 8 other card sharks playing for all the money.

MASTERS POINTS
In STACKED, money’s nice but it’s the Masters Points that’ll put you on the top of the leaderboard. You can only get yourself Masters Points by playing the MTV STACKED Masters Tournaments. The number of Masters Points you can win in a tournament depends on the buy-in, the number of other players and, of course, how far you make it.

TOURNAMENT RINGS
If you like the bling bling, you’ll love the MTV STACKED Masters Ring Tournaments. Once a week, you’ll get a chance to snag a shiny bauble in one of these tasty flavors:

Black Diamond Diamond Ruby Platinum Gold Silver Bronze

Best part? You get to take this hardware back into the game. That’s right, win a ring and the virtual you will be sporting it on your virtual finger. So all your tablemates will be in awe of your poker prowess.

THE PROS
The competition in these tournaments can get downright fierce, especially when you run into Daniel and some of his pro-poker friends. No joke! They’re going to be dropping in the MTV STACKED Masters Tournaments from time to time just to make things even more interesting. If you play your cards right, you could be going all-in against the master, Daniel Negreanu. Each pro uses a look-alike character model exclusively reserved for that pro. If one of them show’s up at your MTV STACKED Masters Tournament table, it’s the real deal. Oh, and these pros really, really hate to lose.
