Freeze-Out – A game where all players play until one player has all the money.
The term "freeze-out" is usually used to describe a tournament format in which play resumes until one player
accumulates all the chips. These type of tournaments are different from
rebuy tournaments because there is a specific
amount of chips that you start with and once you lose those chips, you are eliminated.
As freezeout tournaments progress, tables break (the
floorman moves players from one table to
another table) and the empty seats are filled in by the players from the broken tables. This continues until there is one final
table and the players then play on until there is one winner. This is in contrast to
shootout tournaments where each table is
separate from the others. In shootouts, the seats are not filled in and each table continues playing until there is one
winner on each table. Once all tables have a declared winner, those players are combined and then play some more.
