The Joy Of Poker: Multiple Kinds of Sit n Go Tournaments

The varying types of sit n go tournaments in Poker are some of the most favorite card games of all times.

Read on for more information on the Sit and Go Poker (SNG) tournaments; and the standard rules of the game:

A classic sit and go tournament has one table in which there are a fixed number of players who contribute a certain amount of money on the table. The prize structure is comprised by the buy ins the players contributed. In most games, there are three prizes awarded: 1st place earns 50% of the prize pool, 2nd place earns 30% of prize pool and the 3rd place gets 20% of prize pool. However, with online poker gaining a large amount of popularity, there is a speedier version of the tournament released called the “Turbo” mode. In this rapid paced mode, the tempo of the tournament goes very high with blinds going up every 5 minutes.

The newer version of the SNG Poker offers players to sit at multiple tables. This kind of game is particularly popular over the Internet. Most gaming sites would allow you to sit on 2 tables with 18- 20 players each. The prize pool is much larger and if the turbo mode is introduced, you are likely to win a much larger amount in a shorter period of time. Many sites even allow you to play in 3 or 4 tables at the same time. Although the prize structures vary from site to site, the common trend goes like as stated below:

• 2 tables: 4 places

• 3 tables: 5 places
