Play Sit n Go Poker for a Second Income

Jerry Wrote,  “Hi Drunk Blonde, I really want to begin playing poker as a second income… I have been a member of Full Tilt for awhile so I cannot enjoy that sign up bonus. I also belong to Bodog and Ultimate Bet. Are there any other US sites that u can recomend that I can sign up with and get a good deposit bonus? Also that video u mentioned where can I order that? In the meantime, can you share some of ur strategies for winning at the SNG’s.”

Thanks for your questions Jerry. Here are the sites I recommend for U.S. Players where you can take advantage of generous first deposit bonuses:

        Click the links listed below to ensure you receive your first time deposit bonus

• Full Tilt Poker 100% BONUS UP TO $600 (as you said you’re already a member but it is listed for other folks)
• Absolute Poker 100% BONUS UP TO $500
• Ultimate Bet Poker 111% BONUS UP TO $990

Like Jerry, I have already signed up at Full Tilt and can’t take advantage of their deposit bonus, but I did sign up at Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet to receive full advantage of their bonuses. It’s a great way to start and pump up your bankroll.

Frankly, I think if you can play competitively on Full Tilt then you can play anywhere. The quality of players on Full Tilt is generally higher in my opinion. Sure, there are lots of fish, but you’ll encounter some excellent players, even in the lower limits. That’s ok – you don’t have to be the best player to be profitable. You just have to make your moves at the right time to take advantage of the looser players.

I recommend that you click the links, download their software for free and then look around at the games they offer, their interface and the number of players at the times you’re most likely to play. You should also read and understand how they release your bonus. You will find that some sites match up to your needs better than others.

There are many factors to consider in sit-n-go play. My best advice includes the following;

• Review my Sit-N-Go strategies thoroughly until you understand the concepts.
• Practice, Practice, Practice!
• Get experience in the lower limit SNG games before you move up to higher limits.
• Keep a log of your games including wins, losses and key things you learn.
• Play tight, aggressive in the early stage of the game – understand that most of the money is actually made in the late stages of the game. You can virtually coast to the final 3 playing no hands at all, letting the other players bust out.
• During the early stage, watch and learn your opponents’ betting patterns.
• Shift gears for middle and late stages.
• After about 4 people have been eliminated you should start to play more hands but be very selective to increase your odds of making the money.
• Become much more aggressive in the late stage when you’re down to about 4 people, but play smart.
• Your goal should always be to make the final three. After that, you can become hyper-aggressive with your good hands
• Remember that the value of starting hands such as A 10 offsuit, K Q offsuit along with speculative hands are tenuous during the beginning stage of the game, but rapidly increase up as there are fewer people in the game. You should adjust your play accordingly.

I will post more detailed strategies in future posts. There are many factors to consider during each game. Every game I play I try to learn something new to add to my knowledge and abilities.

Many players earn a second income playing sit-n-go tourneys. I’m one of them. I’m not earning my living at it – not yet anyway. Like most serious poker players, I’m taking my time, building my bankroll, and gaining knowlege and experience. I enjoy a great income from my primary job and I have the best boss ever (the boss is me!).  My income from poker just allows me to enjoy some of the nicer things in life.

Best of luck to you on the felt!
