    I am looking into tournaments & I see prizes awarded in:

    play vouchers?
    Promo chips?
    play till u lose table vouchers?

    how do these work?

    Chips

    The individual casinos will have rules on what you can do with the items in question.

    In general, I would guess a table voucher could be just cashed in for what ever amount it is at a table and then you can do what ever you want to with the money.

    Promo chips are usually either play until you lose. This means you can't cash them in, but they play at the table games just like real money. If you win a bet then you get paid and get to keep the promo chip.

    If they are one-time only promo chips, then you, get paid money if you win, but lose the chip whether you have a win or loss the hand. Most times you get to keep the promo chips if you push or tie.

    The wizard had an article that explains some of this http://wizardofodds.com/gambling/promotional-chips/
