Do SNGs exist in real life?

Simple question, really. I prefer SNGs to cash games but I prefer playing in real life to playing online. I figured I should focus on the one I enjoy the most, but obviously they're conflicting things. If SNGs don't exist much in real life, I'll focus more on cash games, but if they do, I'll focus on SNGs.

Do you have any experience finding SNGs to play in actual casinos?

The only time I saw this or something close to this was at the Trump Taj casino in Atlantic City but that doesn't exist anymore.

They are pretty rare to find. Usually SNGs will appear during an event series and the SNG will be a satellite into a main event.

They exist, in big casinos tho, u can find them but rarely, Kings casino in rozvadov runs alot of sats 24/7 but there are tons of players there at all times, most casinos dont coz they dont have enough players to run it

I don't think casino SNG's are a money maker for the casino. Therefore, it is tough to find SNG's in them.

My local casino runs them at times if there's enough interest, maybe you could ask your local casino if they would run them if there was enough interest too

No... but that's what tournaments are for (in real life).

I normally play at smaller cardrooms in New Hampshire which dont offer sit n' go's. But when I go to Foxwoods in Connecticut they have a good variety of 6 handed and 9 handed SNGs at all stakes. SO I think it comes down to the size of the casino your going to, maybe smaller cardrooms no but bigger casino's yes.

I did played some in germany before they took it out . It was not profitable for casinos to organize those , so they changed it to cash only

At my local card room in Sarasota Florida, the one eyed Jack's, they had a table reserved for 6 man sngs. 125$ buy in or 210 $ buy in. 1st and 2nd places got good money.
