Double or Nothing Strategy for Sit & Go’s Review
There are two parts to this easy to read guide on quickly increasing your poker bankroll with Double or Nothing tournaments.
Part one deals with how to build up your poker bankroll. The simple aim of doing this is so you can play in higher stakes games and win more money from the higher prizes available.
Obviously you want to do this with as little risk to your bankroll as possible!
Most people play Sit’n'Go tournaments. The prize structure is tiered on a reducing scale, so unless you’re a superb player the chances are that you won’t win much.
And even if you are a good player, at the lower stake levels you’re often up against casual players who don’t play “sensibly” and often beat you by fluke.
If you’ve ever cursed your opponent because their hand was worth nothing until the river card was dealt (yet they kept raising every turn), you’ll know what I mean.
Double or Nothing Sit’n'Go tournaments are different. Half the table wins back their stake, less the house rake of course, the other half loses.
With normal sit’n'go games you have to be in the top three to get anything back at all.
So you’re changing from a 30% chance of getting some money back to a 50% chance. Ok, you don’t win as much but providing you’re at least an average player, you’ll win more often.
With every different type of poker game, there’s a different strategy to use. With Double or Nothing Sit’n'Go games, most of your opponents are still learning the best strategy or are playing with strategies that work better with other formats.
For instance, in sit’n'go games, you’ll likely be playing tight for most of the game because there’s nothing more frustrating than getting knocked out on the bubble. You’ve wasted your time and lost your cash. Again!
So the first strategy report teaches you the techniques you need to use so that you’re more likely to be in the top half of the players, more often.
Your aim on these tournaments is to be in the top half of the players. It doesn’t matter where you are in that section. You can be chip leader or you can just avoid going out on the bubble.
Which means your mindset needs to change to take account of this.
All in all, the first report covers six key concepts that you need to use in order to maximize your chance of winning double your money back.
These are well explained, down to when to steal the blinds even though your instinct from other types of games is saying “no”.
It also covers playing several tournaments at once to help raise your bankroll faster. This is something you may have tried before, likely with mixed success as it’s easy to get distracted or lose concentration on one or more of the games you’re playing.
But with Double or Nothing Sit’n'Go tournaments, again the strategy is different and this makes playing multiple tournaments easier than with regular sit’n'go games.
I don’t suggest that you start off playing 20 tournaments at once like the author of this book has done on occasion! Again it’s well explained what to do and how to go about it.
The aim is to get the highest possible hourly rate of “pay” from your poker games and this is all explained clearly.
There’s a handy quiz at the end of the book that will help make sure you’ve got the concepts well and truly on board before actually playing in a tournament.
The second book is devoted to real life examples from actual Double or Nothing Sit’n'Go tournaments. If you’re the kind of person who works best with lots of examples so that everything is crystal clear, this is an excellent companion.
Verdict
The Double or Nothing Strategy is well explained.
If you want to increase your poker bankroll quickly and relatively safely, it’s definitely recommended.
The price is very affordable – it won’t eat into your bankroll very much – and so long as you follow the simple rules, you’ll be well on your way to increasing your bankroll.
