5x shoot out is a tourney where you have to beat everyone else on your table before you can proceed. (I think) and the other two is the speed the blinds go up in a tourney. Good luck

If you are talking about pokerstars 2x-turbo and 3x-turbo, they mean they are rebuy turbos, which means blinds go up faster, and 2x-turbo means the rebuy period is twice the normal, and 3x-turbo means the rebuy period is three times the normal.. And shootout means a type of tournament where the winner of each individual table advances to the next level the same way as in heads-up tournaments... and i believe 5x-shootout means there are 5 levels.. In your pic it's a 4-max 5x shootout .. so there are 4 players in each table.. maximum number of players is 1024, 256 advance to level 2, 64 to level 3, 16 to level 4 and 4 to level 5 which is the final table ( im not 100% sure about this one though as I'm not playing that much on pokerstars)

Hello AlexandrosLM where you find that kind of MTT? i wanna play one, i think is like HU MTT but there are 4 players and means more action and more cash... btw, from that 1024 players how many will finish ITM? first 64? or 16?
