Playing Multiple Sit N Go’s at Once
For participants of Sit N Go poker tournaments, it might be interesting to note that in addition to playing at single tables, there is also an option of playing multiple Sit N Goes at once. This way of playing at different poker tables at the same time is also known in the poker field as multi-tabling.
Playing multiple Sit N Goes (SNGs) may appear to be confusing to the new player, as this involves participating at separate tables with different hands simultaneously. However, many players find that once they have adjusted to this manner of playing, this is a fun and exciting way to enjoy poker.
It is possible to play at different multi-table SNGs on the same site or at different sites, although it is usually considered an easier task to play at different tournaments via the same poker site. You may well wonder how best to manage more than one game at the same time. One way of maneuvering between the games is to switch between each of the different tables at which you are participating. Some people believe this option to be a little pressured and confusing. Another method is to allow the poker site involved to make a sound when your turn at one of the tables comes around and then the appropriate poker table pops up on the screen. Alternatively, there is the option of making each of the separate tables into small individual screens that can fit onto your computer screen to enable a simultaneous view.
Advantages of Multi Tabling
You have possibly wondered about the advantages of playing at multiple SNGs in such a way. One major advantage of playing at more that one table at the same time is that it presents the possibility of a higher hourly win rate. In addition, multi-table games do provide constant action and there is therefore certainly no time to get bored or restless while waiting for your turn to come around. Players at multiple SNG tournaments can often notice an improvement in their game, as playing multi-table poker means seeing more hands and therefore improving one’s game by getting more practice.
Disadvantages of Multi Tabling
Obviously, not everything can be perfect. There are of course two sides to every penny and there are also disadvantages to playing multi-tables. For example, you need to be able to maintain top concentration levels in order to play at more than one poker game at once. In addition, it should be noted that playing when you are tired makes the task in hand even more difficult. One should also take into account that the possibility of making errors does exist. Such an error may happen by pressing on the wrong button by mistake when switching between the different games. It is also important to note that by playing multiple SNGs at the same time, it is possible and even probable that you will miss out on the opportunity to observe the actions and game play of the other players.
All in all, multi-table SNGs do offer an exciting action packed form of entertainment.
