Although Betfair Poker offers thousands of ring games and freerolls, the site's Sit and Go tournaments are clearly the most popular. There are many advantages to playing Betfair Poker's Sit and Gos, especially when compared to other scheduled tournaments and ring games at the site.

Sit and Go at Betfair Poker

At Betfair Poker, Sit and Go tournaments are also referred to as single table tournaments. A Sit and Go is characterized by the fact that it is a single table game. This means that the entire tournament is based individually at single tables.

Sit and Go games are quick by nature. Each game will begin as soon as a table has been filled so that you never have to worry about waiting for a scheduled tournament.

Sit and Go tables usually have low buy-ins available, starting as low as $2.75. This makes Sit and Gos a great place for less experienced players to start as there is little financial risk involved.

If, however, you are looking for a higher stakes game, Betfair Poker's Sit and Go tournament buy-ins can rise as high as $1,500 or more. This is one of the higher Sit and Go buy-ins found in the online poker world.

Important Points About Sit and Gos

Sit and Gos are very different from normal poker cash games. Here are some important points that you should learn before playing your first Sit and Go game at Betfair Poker:

• Each player at a Sit and Go table will receive the same number of chips to wager with. When a player runs out of chips, he is forced to leave the game. You cannot buy more chips in order to stay in the Sit and Go tournament.
• When you sign up for a Betfair Poker Sit and Go tournament, you will be asked not only to pay the chosen buy-in, but also to pay a $10 fee to participate in the tournament.
• Blinds will increase throughout the game. The increase will depend on the type of Sit and Go you are playing: Deep Stack, Turbo, Super Turbo or Standard.
• At the end of the Sit and Go game, players will be paid a certain percentage according to how they finished in the game. In a 9-seat Sit and Go tournament, the first, second and third place winner will receive 50%, 30% and 20% of the pot respectively. Similarly, for players at a 6-seat table, the first and second place winners will receive 2/3 and 1/3 of the prize pool respectively. In a Heads Up Sit and Go, however, only the first place winner will be paid. They get 100% of the winnings.
