Poker Beginner Tips

- Manage your bankroll

When playing SNGs you always have to keep your bankroll in mind. The buy-in may never cost you more than 5% of your bankroll. This means that if you have $100 you should not choose SNGs with a buy-in of more than $5. The bigger your bankroll gets, the smaller the percentage gets. So if you have $500, you should opt for SNGs with a $20 buy-in.

- Bye Bye impatient ones

The first thing that happens when playing a SNG is the elimination of all the impatient opponents. These are players who prefer to push all-in on the first hand, hoping to double up quick or save time and effort to build up a stack the usual way. Usually it doesn’t take long for these players to be eliminated so just sit tight for a couple of minutes.

- Multi-tasking

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that you can do everything at the same time. Sit N Go’s need concentration. If you are playing while watching TV, chatting with friends, making a meal you’re missing a lot of valuable information. Always focus on the poker game !
