Sit and Go tournaments are fast becoming one of the most popular forms of online poker.
There are many different kinds of Sit and Go games to play on a variety of sites. The different types are mainly:
- Heads up
- 6 – handed
- 9/10 handed
And they also come in Limit, No Limit and sometimes Pot Limit.
Most people starting out play Holdem but you can find all types of games, such as:
- Omaha
- Omaha, Eight or better (hi/lo)
- Razz
- Stud
- Stud, Eight or better (hi/lo)
- HA (Mixed game with Holdem and Omaha)
- Horse (Mixed game with Holdem, Omaha eight or better, Razz, Stud and Stud, eight or better)
- 8-game (Mixed game same as Horse, but includes NL Holdem and PL Omaha)
These games also come as turbo’s or normal speed, with a varying range of starting stacks. You can play for any amount of money, from $0.25 to $1000’s.
Another variation is that you can have a “normal” pay-out structure paying the top 2 or 3. There are also “Double or Nothing SNGs which pay out half the runners double your buy-in minus the tournament fee. Full tilt also have what is called a Matrix SnG which gives you 4 games against the same opponents. They pay out for each individual SnG and also for a total points scored based over the 4 games.
As you can see there are many possibilities of which type of Sit and Go to play, and what works well for someone, might not work well for someone else.
