Single-table tournaments

If you're looking for the thrill of a tournament without a 4-hour investment, check out the one-table tournaments available at almost every online poker site. Playing on an online poker site has many advantages. These tournaments are played with up to ten players, and some sites even offer heads up tournaments!

They are available in a wide range of games, from pot limit Omaha high-low to limit 7-card stud to the Cadillac of poker, no limit Texas hold ‘em. Nine- and 10-handed one-table tournaments, or sit ‘n go's, as they're often called, usually pay out 50% of the prize pool to 1st, 30% to 2nd, and 20% to 3rd. And like the name implies, you can just sit down and they'll go as soon as the table fills up. Good luck!
