All other players have four games in progress already - so if that 11th player gets one game, one of the others would have to play five simultaneously, while four is the limit of simultaneous games in a mini-tournament for one player.

That when any game ends, he will get two games started, I think.

Also you could read "help" question #43 (link)

gameknot.com

"Q43: No new games are being started for me in a mini-tournament, why?

A: The mini-tournament games are started automatically based on the player availability (up to 4 games per player in each mini-tournament). So if no games are being started for you in a mini-tournament, that means there are no players available to play against you at this time. Please simply wait and the games will be started for you as soon as other players either finish some of their current games in the mini-tournament or return from their vacations, etc.."
