Sit-and-go poker tournaments are the tournaments that do not have some time off, and start as soon as they are to fill all the seats at the table. As a rule there are four main types of Sit-and-Go tournaments:
1. One-table Sit-and-Go tournament with the following prizes: the winner gets 50% of the contributed money, the second place gets 30% of the prize fund and the third player receives 20% of the prize fund.
2. 2-table Sit-and-Go tournament. Once the number of participants is 9 or 10 people, the players come together at the same table. The first 4 places are usually paid.
3. Several tables Sit-and-Go tournaments. All the tournament participants seat at tables at random to 9 or 10 (depending on room online). The structure of the payment of prizes in such tournaments can be found in the lobby of the respective tournament.
4. One by one Sit-and-Go tournament, one by one. All the money goes to the winner.
Speaking about poker tournaments one can’t but mention Turbo Tournaments. Turbo tournaments blinds rise much faster than the normal games ones. The interval between the increase in the levels of blinds is only 5 minutes (as opposed to 15 minutes in a standard tournament). These tournaments results are more dependent on luck.
