Though I’ve been a cash game player for the last decade and a half, Sit & Gos hold a very special place in my heart. My first two years in poker were at the single table SNGs. I learned the game there. I became a winning player there. I even met many of my closest poker friends, to this day, in the SNG community.
Sit & Gos were simple back then. 10 players bought in and the top 3 spots got paid. Looking back with hindsight, my winning strategy was to be a bad nit in the early levels and then play the late-game push-fold much better than my opponents. It worked well!
Eventually, I moved on from those 10 handed Single Table Tournaments to Cash Games, and SNGs moved on from them as well.
From multi-table SNGs to 6-handed turbos to heads up hypers, sites continued to turn those existing knobs – # of Players, Speed, Payout structure – to create new versions of the same game, until some very serious innovation occurred.
First created by Winamax, and popularized by PokerStars, the Lottery Sit & Go, which you may know by the name ‘Spin & Go’, (literally) changed the game.
Fast, exciting, huge prizes – it’s clear why players flocked to Spins.Lottery Sit & Gos
Lottery SNGs do a lot of things well:
*They’re fast – which means a casual player can play a full game without much commitment.
*They add a large prize element to a format that otherwise wouldn’t have it – you can get 6-figure+ prize pools in MTTs but not in traditional SNGs.
*The added variance is good for players who are underdogs, which means it’s generally good for the poker ecosystem.
This last point is key – not just in SNGs, but for all of poker. The relationship between variance and win-rates or loss-rates is as important a topic as any other, in my opinion, when it comes to online poker’s future. Yes, I’m saying it’s as important as huge topics like botting and regulation!
If you haven’t heard yet, we give a lot of money away to our players!
Low variance games combined with high loss-rates leads to consistent losses, and that takes the fun out of poker for a number of recreational players who would have much better luck at the roulette table. The reason this is becoming more and more of an issue is that pros have increased their edges over recreational players in the past couple of decades and game quality on the whole has decreased over time.
Note how this is a self-perpetuating problem. Games get tougher, recreational players lose more consistently, have less fun, find other hobbies, and games get tougher again. This is why I believe that it’s such a critical issue for poker sites to address.
Lottery SNGs did a fantastic job in this area, which is a big part of why they’re so popular.
