In 1.4.0 the only tournament rewards that I received were items that would be valuable to a level one player. It was mostly tier 2 armor. I was level 26 and my clan tier was 6. The rewards don't seem to scale with a player's level. It's all crap now.
The betting has been a joke since it was change back in... 1.0.3 or 1.0.4. You can bet max in all four rounds and win a whopping 60 denars. That paltry amount is not even worth clicking the buttons for.
Tournaments are sometimes fun but there is no reward for winning currently.
+1000000
Been with 4 different mains, 2 warrior ones, 2 non-warrior ones...always realistic difficulty. More than 100 tournaments done.
Reward: Have only been getting mediocre ones, with helmets being the most common. But hey, at least you can still sell it.
Betting: Yes, it's a joke. Why is this not getting fixed? This has been an issue with Warband as well, and
ANY better mod changed it. It's been 10 years, and you still stick to Warband native philosophy?
Considering that most warrior mains are NOT traders, and traders easily make 5-10k per town visit, I REALLY don't see the problem with improving tournament rewards, which take more time, have a risk of actually NOT winning (only 1st place gets a reward? -_-), and if you bet full-on you even risk losing 1k.
And hey...
NO monetary reward at ALL, if you don't bet? You're kidding right...because even Warband was better than that.

Difficulty: Many already said it...either let everyone use tournament gear or their own. The current "armor-only" system is disgusting and stupid.
Lords (incl. Main + companions) entering with full plate is a joke.
And don't get me started on
spears 1vs1...2 full-plate dudes with spears+shields, chipping at each other for 5-10pierce and every 2-3 attack is blocked (and spears won't destroy shields)...those are the
most unfun Mount&Blade combats I've experienced in a decade.
