First, let's have a look at the different kinds of poker tournament events you can find and play in. As you'll see, there's no shortage of poker tournament events in which to participate:

1) Sit & Go: the most popular one and two table poker tournaments are always running, so you can jump into a quick tourney anytime. This is a great way to "learn the basics " with some tournament action.

2) Regular Poker Tournaments: there are various online tournaments of every imaginable kind. A couple of my favorites are held regularly on Full Tilt Poker, Paradise Poker and Party Poker - check web sites for more details. There are many poker tournaments available with entry fees as low as $1 and of course much, much higher.

3) Free-roll Poker Tournaments : these are "free", play-money tournaments held regularly on all poker sites. These freeroll tournaments are a great way to practice your poker tournament play without risking anything. Learn More

4) Four-player: these poker tournaments begin with 4 players split across two tables, where each pair of two players play against one another "heads-up", then the winner of each table heads-up match play the final table heads-up against each other. This is a great way to sharpen your heads-up play.

5) Heads-up: these poker tournaments are just what they sound like - two players going heads-up.

6) Satellites: these are "qualifier" events, where the top players in each satellite event progress to the next higher level, typically an entry into a bigger poker tournament event. Chris Moneymaker entered one of these satellite events on Poker Stars and ended up winning the World Series of Poker!
