The very good Sit & Go tournaments if you want to get to the prizes quickly,
The most recommended for a table of 9 players would be very easy to win if they are played with patience, that way they are charged with security. the best thing is that you don't have to play 3 hours like we do when we play mtt. Now when I want a big prize I play the mtt considering that it can take more than 3 hours to finish.

I agree with you. I like sit & go. and do not need to get used to new players when transferring to another table

I don’t like sit and gos that much. I’d rather play MTT and turbo if short on time. I feel there’s too much chance of collusion on a single sit and go table. For example, two friends could join the same sit and go and share their cards with each other via phone, text, etc outside of the game and have better information for winning pots and cashing. Just my thoughts.

In addition to being a cheap and fast tournament that allows you to increase your bankroll, sit'go is a tournament that helps to stabilize the graph and give you a positive image for poker teams.

Yeah agree with you,if you wanna earn quick money,but you dont wanna play cash games,or zoom,then sit and go i good solution for you.
Ok you can hope some large money reward,but reward is ok.
Sit and go is games fo everyone!

S&Gs have definitely been my preferred game of choice as of late for many of the reasons already stated. Been having a decent amount of luck in them and I don't get too frustrated if I get a bad beat since that's the nature of those events and it's usually not a big buy-in or time investment.

Sit N go's are great to build up your roll. There even better when you have time limitations. While i dont play them very often anymore they are still fun to play when time is short.

I think that in Sit & Go you can grow up your bankroll. This type of tournaments are really good to learn. It’s faster than MTT 🙂

Sorry for my english 😬

I like to play sit and goes too ,I mostly play double or nothing

I am an STT player, it is my favorite option but you have to play more than three hours to get good profits since the prizes are low compared to the buy-in necessary to play

Not only that they are great for learning situational poker. Bubble and HU play especially.

If the sng are a good option to start playing, there is less variance than in tournaments, they are also a good training to play final tables and heads up.
I used to play 6 max, but now I am playing a 9 player table.

I love to play sit and go. If i want to increase my bankroll i play single table 9 players and if i have time then KO tournament helps me return money i already gave for playing and get some extra money.

how long do they usually last 9 handed vs 6

yes definitely! i did it, i still do it from time to time. theres easy money once you know how to do it xD

The best for your bank to grow are the sit a go, when you have a large bank you can play mtt because it is more difficult to reach itm then they require a very solid bank.

Love sit and gos, good for when you don't have the time to sit and play for hours

give examples, what tournaments do you mean

I play a lot at 9p 18p 90p for $ 1.50 and ass that I raised my bankroll in SNg and the best tournaments to play and these!

The lower limit ones will be bingo. But you should win a few to counter the bingo loses ..

I normally plat sit and goes of 45,90,180 or 360 players. I like the larger fields for finishing top 3 or better.
.

I used to play 9 handed sit and gos a lot and not only was it fun and fast I usually did very well ... that was on Full Tilt and PS which I can't play at anymore being an American ... now it seems you can't find a 9 handed table on the sites I am allowed to play at ...

So I kind of gravitated to MTT's and cash games ....and focusing much more on cash games now although a tournament can be fun if I feel like playing for 4 -5 hours straight, worse deal with the insane late reg times these sites seem to have to have .......... I would love to go back to some 9 handed SnGs, and yes they were profitable ....

SNGs = Paradise
MTTs = LoL donkaments

My 2 cents.

but the micro multi table SNG is so crazy..

n my case I don't think sit & go is a good way to increase your bankroll. I think it is a way to throw your money to luck. That game mode has rarely saved me, but well we all have or acquire different ways of playing poker and certain game modes work more for some than others.
regards!!

I think that it is the best way to make it grow, because we have a summarized number of players to beat to get a prize compared to the big tournaments where you have thousands of rivals.

I'm curious how much of this the more experienced online players here thinks happens? I could see it happening maybe at the higher stakes games, but do the casinos have monitoring that prevents this (IE: notice when two users consistently join the same games)? I find it hard to believe that this is happening regularly, but maybe I am naive.

of course !! that's why I said that the sit & go modality works for others. It rarely worked for me !! Today I only play it as a satellite medium for higher value tournaments

I although play mostly sit and goes ,but Iplay douple up sit and goes ,the problem is the rake ,you must win more than 50 % to win money an alternative is multitable sit and goes ,but here you must often long wait before they starts

I also started my career in poker from the CIS, but unfortunately, with the development of technology, a huge number of teamplay opportunities have appeared! And now I do not risk playing in the CIS there are too many scammers, unlike MTT.

Buried in the middle of the forum thread

As always, it depends on the format. 9 vs 6 is too little information to judge time. Is it live or online? Regular blind speed, turbo, hyper etc.? I think the main point here is that they are much shorter than MMT events of same format.

Generally speaking, I only find 9 to be slightly longer than 6. For example, if the 9 player game lasted say an hour, then 6 would maybe be 45 minutes in my mind. Not a big difference really.

As many players say - SNG is less varied discipline than many others, and if you understand the basic principles of playing this discipline, then at low limits you won't have to come up with something out of the ordinary.

I prefer to play at tables with 27 or 36 players. And the prize money is good and the game does not last long.

This is a great place to start, but for a serious game I chose MTT.

In addition, sit end go tournaments are suitable for raising the limits.

I prefer Go site I have better result

STTs are very convenient, when you are short on time, and they are a good way to practice some aspects of tournament poker including bubble play, 3-handed and heads up. In my experience however it is difficult to get a significant winrate in this format. So I keep gravitating back to MTTs like even just the 45-180 man SnGs on PokerStars.
