Checking into a tournament

What the check-in screen does and how to know your seat.

Check-in confirms you're present and ready. Once the director approves, your seat and stack are locked in.

1
Open the tournament
Tap it from your Upcoming Tournaments list.
2
Tap "I'm here"
Your status changes to "check-in requested". Director sees your row go gold.
3
See your seat
Once approved, your table and seat show up. Head over and sit down.
If you requested check-in and need to leave, tap "Withdraw" before the director approves — you won't be charged a no-show.
