What are big stack tournaments? Big stack tournaments are simply tournaments that begin with a larger than usual stack. While it is true that big stack tournaments have a tendency to run a little longer than standard tournaments, they provide for a richer playing experience. The big stack tournaments allow for players to make some very interesting plays without having to risk being sent to the rails all of the time.

It is generally the case with standard tournaments that the larger the buy in, the larger the starting stack. In a sense, big stack tournaments give players a taste of what it is like playing at the higher stake levels without having to risk the cash.
