In addition, Poker 770 offers two kinds of Jackpot Sit and Go tournaments. Specialty tournaments, beginners' only tournaments and much more await Poker 770 players.

Sit and Gos

Sit and Go tournaments at Poker 770 are jackpot tourneys that offer either live event prizes or progressive jackpots that can total over $50,000. The Jackpot Sit and Gos run daily, with players needing to achieve a certain number of consecutive wins in order to claim the jackpot prize.

Jackpot Sit'N'Go Live Poker

The Jackpot Sit'N'Go Live Poker tournaments offer prize packages for the winner to travel and play in one of the European poker events. The prize package is worth $8000 and includes travel, event registration and accommodations. The jackpot winner selects their choice of either the World Poker Tour, Pokerstars.com European Poker Tour or WSOP Europe. Poker 770 pays all the expenses for the jackpot winner to attend and play in that European Live Event.

To win this live event jackpot prize package, players have to win either 7 or 12 consecutive Sit and Go tournaments, depending on their buy-in level.

• For a buy-in level of $5 plus $1, a player needs 7 Sit'N'Go wins in a row.
• For a Buy-in level of $1 plus $0.25 a player needs 12 Sit'N'Go wins in a row.

Cash Jackpot Sit and Go

Four weekly Jackpot Sit and Gos offer cash prizes at Poker 770. Three of them are progressive jackpots that increase weekly if no player claims the jackpot total. Players can choose their stakes and prize pool to decide which of the four jackpot Sit and Gos they want to play. Each of the three progressives have consolation prizes for first and second place finishers who don't meet the jackpot requirements.

To claim the jackpot total on any of these four, players have to win the stated number of Sit and Go tournaments in a row. Within 48 hours of completing the last win, players submit their claim to the Poker 770 staff for review before the jackpot prize is released.
