Sit and Go tournaments at Bet365 Poker are popular options, especially when one of the biggest prizes available is a Jackpot Sit and Go. There are regular weekly Sit and Go games available at Bet365 Poker for players at various stakes and buy-ins.

Sit and Go Tournaments

In general, Sit and Go tournaments, also marked as SNG in the tournaments list, are those without a pre-scheduled start time. The major advantage of Sit and Gos is they start when every seat at the table is filled with new players. To join a Sit and Go, players select the specific SNG table from the list and double click on it to be seated there. A notification pops up when the last seat fills and the tournament is about to begin.

Sit and Go Tournaments are usually single table tournaments of six to twelve players where the players compete until there is a tournament winner. Strategies for Sit and Go's vary by players, but one of the most common threads is that Sit and Gos require a more aggressive style of play than less aggressive. Players who prefer a more intense and focused game, or a much shorter tournament style of play, find Sit and Gos intriguing and most desirable among tournament options.

Jackpot Sit and Gos Available

At Bet365, Sit and Go tournaments have taken on a special variation from standard Sit and Go styles. Bet365 Poker offers the Jackpot Sit and Go, which requires more from players who want to win bigger than their table tournament. There are four regular Jackpot Sit and Go tournaments running at Bet365 Poker at increasing stakes and prize levels:

  • Dirty Dozen: 12 players, two tables, lower stakes SNG, $2000 Jackpot prize
  • Maui: 10 players, single table, progressive prize up to $15,000
  • Rio: 6 players, single table, progressive prize of $25,000 minimum
  • Fort Knox: 6 players, single table, progressive prize of at least $50,000

How Jackpot Sit and Go's Work

Each of these four styles offer various buy-in amounts starting from $2+$0.40 upwards. Prize amounts vary as well for each table tournament. Additionally though, the idea behind a Jackpot Sit and Go is that players who complete a certain number of consecutive wins in a tournament qualify for the Jackpot of that tournament. Thus, Dirty Dozen players who win four in a row claim the Dirty Dozen $2000 Jackpot.

Beyond this incentive, the higher stakes Maui, Rio and Fort Knox tournaments have progressive Jackpots. That means if there is not a five or six-time consecutive winner to claim that Jackpot in a given week's tournament, the jackpot will continue to grow until one winner claims the Jackpot total as high as it is. Once the progressive jackpot is claimed, the prize resets to the original jackpot totals of $15,000/$25,000/$50,000 and the progressive growth begins again until the next big winner.

Consolation Prizes

Knowing that four, five and six consecutive wins of Sit and Go tournaments can be a tall order, Bet365 also offers smaller consolation prizes for the efforts of players who consistently make first and second place wins. Though these prizes pale in comparison to the Jackpot totals, its an added bonus to claim an extra $200 to $750 for finishing well on the journey to the Jackpot.

Jackpot Sit and Go's are the big feature at Bet365. Not only does it allow players who enjoy regular sit and go tournaments to participate - players can enter each of these four tournaments repeatedly - but it also offers a greater incentive. This notches up the intensity and the challenge of the game to make the Bet365 Jackpot Sit and Go's very popular with SNG poker players.
