Sit & Go Tournaments

Pacific Poker is pleased to host Sit & Go Tournaments of Texas Hold'em. To learn how to play Texas Hold'em, please see the How to Play Ring Games section of this site

A Pacific Poker Sit & Go Tournament is an impromptu Poker Tournament, for between 2 and 40 players. To learn how to join a Sit & Go Tournament, please see Join a Tournament, in the Getting Started section of this site. Pacific Poker Members may register to a maximum of four Poker Tournaments and actively play in two Poker Tournaments at a time.

A Sit & Go Tournament commences once the predetermined number of players have registered. Participants will be required to Buy-In, upon joining the tournament. A Sit & Go Tournament Buy-In varies, between 50¢ and $750, depending on the tournament. Tournament participants will also be required to pay a Tournament Fee, of between 20 ¢ and $15.

Once the tournament is about to begin, players will be seated at the tournament tables, in a random manner. At each tournament table there will then be an initial draw to determine, according to highest ranking card (by suit), which player will act first as Dealer.

If the Sit & Go Tournament is being played on more than one Poker table, active players may be moved between the tables, as the tournament progresses and players are disqualified (run out of chips).

Tournament Stakes will increase, as the tournament progresses, according to the predetermined schedule. This Stake increase schedule is available in the Tournament Lobby (please see Guide to the Tournament Lobby, in the Tips on Using Our Software section of this site). There will be no recesses during a Sit & Go Tournament.

If, for technical reasons, the Tournament is cancelled in the middle, participants who have already been eliminated will lose their Buy-ins and entry fees. The remaining players will be refunded their Buy-ins and entry fees, and will equally divide up the Buy-ins of the players already eliminated (regardless of the chip standing when the tournament was halted).

The last remaining player in the tournament (has won all the chips) is the winner. Tournament prizes are determined according to the Tournament Prize Pool Structure, in the Tournament section of this site.

The number of players and buy-in amounts are subject to change at any time by Pacific Poker.

Enjoy the tables and Good Luck!
