The SNG Planet Verdict:
It would be easy to say that this is down to individual preference – yet some games do stick out as better for bankroll building than others. Single table SNG tournaments are probably the best of all, the factor here is that the skills you learn as you move up are scalable (with some work) to the very highest limits – meaning you can continue to build your Sit N Go bankroll using these long after the potential for the other games has faded. Remember also that maintaining a good ROI can really benefit from investing in some of the great poker software tools available today.
For those who wish to take their career into the direction poker tournaments once bankroll allows we would recommend the 180s – especially at Pokerstars, these are available at a good range of levels and give you the opportunity to move up quicker when you hit the final tables – and with Pokerstars 100% to $600 bonus clearing fast (marketing code = PSP3108 when you register and Bonus Code = STARS600 when you deposit) – this makes a great choice of site whichever size of tournament you choose to grind.
