Olympic Poker recommends playing Sit And Go Tournaments to learn poker, to lower the risk of losing your bankroll and to get your poker bonus safely.
What is a Sit & Go Tournament?
You can join a "Sit & Go" (SNG) Tournament at any time, wait for the table to be filled (normally 9-10 players, depending on the poker room). A Sit And Go Tournament lasts up to an hour, the top 3 finishers get a piece of the prize pool and this game type offers the best return.
Why Play Sit & Go Tournaments?
Sit & Go tournaments are the easiest poker game types for clearing your poker bonus because of the low risk and best return on investment. By going all-in during a Sit & Go all you can lose is you're buy-in. Life is easier for players playing with a small bankroll because going broke is much harder.
Sit And Go tournaments are often full of new players so the chance of winning is higher. The competition is not so strong and it makes learning poker easy for you. It should be easier to consistently finish in the top 3 and win the prize money or at least to break even.
How To Play Sit & Go Tournaments?
Olympic Poker recommends a tight playing style during the first levels of your Sit And Go Tournament. Let the weak players get knocked out first. We recommend playing more agressively once there are 4-5 players left. Now try stealing some pots from others because they will be afraid of busting out before the prizes. By getting into the top 3, you have reached your goal of winning money. Now it is time to play for the big prize.
What If Sit & Go Tournaments Don't Suit Me?
You can try online cash game poker if Sit & Go tournaments do not suit you - there you use your cash to play instead of tournament chips.
Olympic Poker recommends that beginners avoid cash games because they are higher risk. In cash games you could lose your whole bankroll in a couple of hands, instead of just you're buy-in during Sit And Go Tournaments.
Olympic Poker will guide you through the cash games when you have a bigger bankroll and more experience. |
