Although the game is famous, but the tournaments are not easy to find. The game is overshadowed by poker. When it comes to national and international tournaments. While playing in the casino the odds are really low and the advantage to the player is a mere 60%. But the game has a policy to return the bets in form of prize money, which is a great incentive to the players.
