A “Sit & Go” is a tournament that is not regularly scheduled, it simply begins when all the seats are filled. You can find our Sit & Go’s by simpy clicking on our Sit & Go tab in the main lobby. In our Sit & Go section you can find 10 Seater, 6 Seater and Head’s up Sit & Go’s. Within these sections you can find 2 kinds of games, Regular and Speed. During a Regular Sit & Go the limits increase every 10 hands and you have 20 seconds to act, whereas the Speed games the limits increase every 5 hands and you have 15 seconds to act!
The prize distribution for our Sit & Go’s is as follows:
Heads up – 1st Place 100%
6 Seater – 1st place 70% and 2nd Place 30%.
10 Seater – 1st place 50%, 2nd place 30% and 3rd place 20%.
This is the most popular type of tournament. All players start with the same amount of chips and the game lasts until one player has won all the chips. The limits, blinds, bring-ins and antes increase at every level. Remaining players will be moved to different tables as tables break down. At the end of the tournament, one player has won all the chips and the whole prize pool will be split according to a pre-determined structure. For example: If there are 100 players in a tournament, the last 10 players will reach the ranking, whereby the eighth will receive more money than the ninth, the seventh more than the eighth and so on…
This kind of tournament is almost identical to the standard Freezeout; the only difference is you must be quicker: the blind levels increase quicker than the standard Freezeout tournament and you also have less time to act. Different types of Pkv games are available at online websites. The selection of the best one can be made as per the playing interest of the people. In the standard games, the winning chances of the players are high in comparison to the other. All the games are identical so the selection should be made with intelligence.
This variety of tournament leads to a higher prize pool. In a typical situation, you are able to Rebuy chips if your chip count is equal to or less than your starting chip count in the first six levels of the tournament. This may vary, depending upon the tournament. You are also entitled to make a further purchase of the same amount of starting chips during the first break no matter how many chips you already have, this is called the ‘add-on’. In Rebuy tournaments, players risk more because they don’t have to worry about being eliminated early on due to the fact that they have the option of making a Rebuy.
For those who enjoy digging away at other players’ chips, this is the tournament for you. Every player starts off with a larger amount of chips than the standard tournaments – giving them the chance to work their way through the other players’ chips. These types of tournaments favor the calculating, conservative and experienced player.
Every player starts with 800 chips as opposed to 1500 in the standard tournaments, so you might need to be a good bluffer to keep yourself in the game, especially when the bubble is about to burst! Keep an eye on your stack, the clock and the next level just to make it past that bubble…
These are smaller tournaments wherein you can qualify for a bigger tournament.
