A standard tournament is a category of tournament that you can manage with the application. The other category is simple tournaments.
With a standard tournament, you are managing a player entity for each physical player who participates in the tournament. You have a roster that lists all players in the tournament. The players on the roster are pulled from a player database to which the tournament is associated. Tournament status (buy-in count, remaining player count, etc.) is managed by performing actions (buy-in, add-on, rebuy and eliminate) on those players. If you like, you can also manage player seating. Standard tournaments are great for those who wish to keep track of what happend to every single individual who played in their tournament, keep track of player statistics across tournaments, roll up tournaments into leagues, etc. A standard tournament will have a detailed event log of all player actions.
Standard Tournaments can belong to standard leagues.
