Plrs (Players)
This column shows the number of registered players currently waiting for the tournament to begin.

Table Name
Displays the name of each available table.

Type
Shows what kind of game you will be playing.

Buy-in
This column tells how much a player will have to pay in order to enter into the tournament. You will notice most entry fees come in a specific format. For example $2.00 + $.50. What this means is the tournament entry fee is $2.00. The remaining $.50 is the house take. The house fee replaces standard rake in tournament play. So, the total Buy-In would be $2.50 with $2 going to the tournament prize pool.

Treasure
When there is a mult-stage tournament in progress you will often see tournaments that have a treasure listed in this column. For instance, if goldbar was listed in this column, that would mean you could Buy-In with a goldbar instead of cash.

State
Gives the current state of the table in question. All tournaments in the Registering category will be in a Registering state.

Game ID
Is used to identify the game that is being played or registered for. In the event your tournament has a problem, remember this Game ID number for verification.
