Swing Tournaments
A `Swing` is a contest in which all players start with an equal amount of chips and continue to play until one player remains who accumulated all the chips.

* As long as a player has chips, he will continue playing in the tournament.
* Players will be randomly matched against one another for a `Single` game.
* Each game will start with an initial stake as set in the current tournament CPP (Chips Per Point, see definition below).
* When a game starts, if one of the players has less chips than the set CPP, the initial stake would be his entire chips, i.e. the player would be "All-in".
* The CPP will be raised every few minutes in the tournament, but not during a single game. (As shown in the Tournament Lobby).
* The rating of the player will be set at the end of each game.
