As I stated in the post Sorry, But You Probably Won’t Conquer Low Limit Poker, there are low variance online poker formats available that are great bankroll builders. The best format to come around in a long time is the Double or Nothing Sit & Go tournaments available at many online poker sites. If you have never heard of them, the twist in this tournament format is that 5 players get paid double their entry fee instead of the standard 3 players getting paid.
This new format is great for players trying to move out of the lower limits into higher stakes poker. If you learn proper strategy, you can easily multitable these tournaments and increase your hourly rate. The game is still in it’s infancy, meaning many players still don’t know how to properly play. A lot of them understand that you need to play tighter, but that’s the limit to their adjustment. By knowing how to play these tournaments, you have a big advantage over the competition.
Double or Nothing Sit & Go tournaments are also great for new players wondering what game is the best investment for their poker dollars. By playing these tournaments you’ll learn many of the skills necessary to be successful in other forms and structures of poker (and not just Hold Em). With the proper strategy, new players can become acclimated to online poker quickly, and with great success.
