888 is well known for their frequent Sit and Go tournaments. Sit and Gos are poker tournaments (real money or free play) that start as soon as enough players decide to register. Sit and Gos are generally more laid back and relaxed when compared to larger scheduled tournaments, and they often take a shorter amount of time to complete due to the limited number of players. 888 Sit and Go tournaments represent a great way to experience tournament action at 888 without planning too far ahead or committing to a full day of poker.

888 Sit and Go Specifics

888 Sit and Gos are designed to hold up to 50 players, although you'll often see even smaller Sit and Go tournaments at 888 Poker. A 888 Sit and Go won't start until enough players have entered, but they tend to fill up rather quickly due to their popularity.

Multitablers will especially enjoy 888 Sit and Go tournaments, as you can participate in up to eight different tournaments simultaneously. Be aware, however, that Sit and Gos often have a fast pace of play and there are no scheduled breaks in the actions. Some of these Sit and Gos allow you to purchase more chips at a set time after the tournament has started, although 888 hosts freezeouts as well. Tournament blinds increase regularly as the tournament continues according to a previously specified blind schedule.

Immediately before the tournament starts, all of the players registered are seated randomly at the tables. At each individual table, players will draw a card and the card with the highest rank determines who gets to act as the dealer first. If the tournament contains multiple tables, the winners of each table will continue on and be reassigned to new tables until one winner is determined.
