Guts Tournament

Guts is a lot of fun in a freindly home game. I am going to have to say that organizing a guts tournament is probably not a good idea. If u wanted to give it a try, start each player with a ton of chips, and make the ante very low in realation to the stacks, and try to double the antes every 20 minutes or so.

That's good advice, but it does not answer my question --- what should be done if a player doesn't have enough chips left to match the pot if he loses?

P.S. Here are rules for 3 card guts:

What he has left goes into the next pot and he's eliminated. He does NOT get cards on his all in hand... he's just gone. Guts doesn't have a table stakes rule.

That's if a player must match a pot and can't, right?

Seems to me that would be the way that people would be knocked out of the tourney. Having a pot get so big that you'd essentially be all in were you to decide to play.
