Full Tilt Poker Sit and Go - FullTiltPoker.com

Despite having existed for less than a decade, Full Tilt Poker is now a legend in the online gambling community. It's grown to such mammoth size in part because of a particular customer service ethic, and also because as a result of this ethic a large number of the real world poker fraternity visit it.

High profile glamour aside, the site has a fairly basic formula for success that it's stuck to over the years, and a big part of that success is Full Tilt Poker Sit and Go tournaments. Poker fans love this game structure, and it remains one of the most requested poker forms on the site.

What is Sit and Go?

Full Tilt Poker Sit and Go tournaments are a response to the fact that many poker players prefer to play tournament style. The dynamics of a tournament game are very different to a ring game. In a ring game, for instance, everything rides on the current hand. You play live out of your bankroll, and getting wiped out ends your game.

But in tournament play, your financial risk is limited to the price of the buy in. You could potentially (if you're a decent player) win a lot more money, but you can certainly never lose more than it cost you to buy in.

However, tournaments tend to be large scale affairs and can take hours, sometimes days, to resolve themselves. And so the concept of the Sit and Go was created: it's tournament, but it's limited to a single table, usually with a maximum of nine players, but six player games are increasing in popularity.

Sit and Go games are not scheduled. They start as soon as a given table has enough players - hence the name. Sit and Go games give you a proper tournament style game when you want it, rather than having to show up at a specific time.

Multiple Sit and Go Flavors

Full Tilt Poker Sit and Go tournaments include variations that you won't find any other online poker site. The team at full tilt have elevated Sit and Go to an art form, and there are now five different kinds of Full Tilt Poker Sit and Go games that you can choose from. Buy ins range from as little as $0.30 to as much as $5,000, depending on taste.

The first two types are called 1-Table and Multi-table. These work in the traditional manner: each game supports a fixed number of players, and the tournament commences as soon as a sufficient number of people sign up.

In Heads Up Sit and Go, the tournament begins as soon as at least two people have signed on - it's a one-on-one battle. In Satellite Sit and Go, players compete not for cash but for entry into a larger tournament.

Finally, in Matrix (which is a unique Full Tilt Poker Sit and Go), players play simultaneously on 4 different tables, against the same opponents.
