Intertopspoker Private Tables Tournaments
We're now giving all our players the exclusive opportunity to set up private poker tables and tournaments at IntertopsPoker.com. Our Private tables feature will allow you to play your friends in a private environment and create the virtual equivalent of a poker night in your own home!
You can also earn some extra cash on the side by setting up a Private Tournament and referring your friends to IntertopsPoker.com. For every friend you refer to the IntertopsPoker.com Room you can earn yourself $50, and your friends $25 each!
To qualify for these bonuses, each friend needs to open an account at IntertopsPoker.com, make an initial deposit of $50 and take part in 350 Raked Hands. Just make sure that when your friend opens an account at IntertopsPoker.com they include your Poker Alias when prompted - so you need to remind your friends of this in the Private Table email invitation.
Please read on for our easy, step by step guide on how to set up your private table:
Private Freeroll Tournament
Step 1:
Select Manage my private tables after you clicked the "My Account" button in the IntertopsPoker.com software:

Step 2:
Click on the Create Table button:
Step 3:
Select the type of game you want to play from the "Table Type" drop down menu. You can choose a Freeroll, a Cash Game, a Sit & Go Tournament or a Multi Table Tournament.
Then select the rules by which you would like to play from the "Game" drop down menu. You can choose from Texas Hold'em, Omaha High, Omaha High/Low, 7 Card Stud and 5 Card Stud. Please note that you can only play Texas Hold'em if you decide to create a Freeroll or Multi Table Tournament.
Select the limit that your desire from the "Limit" drop down menu. You have a choice of Fixed Limit, Pot Limit and No limit.
Finally select the number of players you want from the "Maximum number of players" option.

Step 4:
With Private Freerolls, the game is set as Texas Hold'em but you can choose between Fixed Limit, Pot Limit and No Limit from the "Limit" drop down menu.
You then select the maximum number of players you require from the "Maximum number of players" menu. Please note that setting up the tournament for 50 players will cost you $10, for 100 it will cost you $15 and for 200 it will cost you $20.

Step 5:
The prizes for the Freeroll will be paid for by whoever sets up the tournament and the next page is there just to ensure that you are aware of this. If you are happy with this just tick the "I Agree" box and then select "Next".

Step 6:
Enter the prize amounts for your Freeroll. Please note that these amounts will be deducted from your account. In some circumstances IntertopsPoker.com will help you fund these prizes.

Step 7:
Next you need to give your private table a name and a password that your friends use to sit at the table and take part. Please make sure that the name of the table and the password are different.
Following this, set the time and date for your tournament to begin and enter a description if you so wish in the "Description to be displayed in the Tournament Lobby" field.
You can also select whether you want the Chat function hidden from public view.

Step 8:
You are now presented with the confirmation screen, containing all the information you have selected throughout the set-up process. Once you are happy that all is in order select "Create" and the tournament will be set up in The IntertopsPoker.com software.
Please note that you will receive an error message if you do not have sufficient funds to fuel the tournament.
