'''Tiebreaker games''' are extra games used to resolve ties in the standings at a tournament.

If two teams are tied, a single game or "half game" is typically played. For situations involving more than two teams, multiple games or fractional games are necessary. [[NAQT]] has prepared [https://www.naqt.com/articles/tiebreakers.pdf schemes for resolving ties] involving up to eight teams.

It is not always necessary to break a tie. Ties may be broken for advancement into playoffs or finals, to give out trophies that have been ordered in advance, or simply if the [[tournament director]] prefers to have a complete, unique ranking of the teams.
