Bargain Sit and Go Poker Tournaments in Las Vegas

In doing research for another post on sit and go poker tournaments in Las Vegas, I found that most of the poker rooms are offering them at a fairly high buy-in. Although this may not bother some of you, it does cause a problem for the novice who is just trying to get his feet wet in a new type of poker tournament.

There is one poker room, however, that has sit and go tournaments at a very reasonable buy-in amount. The Plaza Casino, downtown, offers sit-n-go tournaments for a $40 buy-in from 9:00AM until 12:00AM, seven days a week.

These start as soon as there are 10 (ten) players signed up for a tournament. Usually this happens about three times an hour. So there is always a game going on or just getting started. When you sign up for the tournament don't go too far away as they fill up quite fast. If you're not there when the tournament starts, you will lose your seat.

The pay outs for these tournaments are $240 for first place and $90 for second place.

See you there.

Good Luck

Action in Downtown LV Poker Rooms Early in the Day

It's 10:00 AM in downtown Las Vegas and all the rooms seem to be dead.

At Binions there's a no limit game going on and the regulars are reading papers or talking to each other, waiting for a game to start.

At the Fitz the room hasn't even opened yet.

At the Golden Nugget there's a 3/6 game going but nothing else.

At the Plaza it's quite different. There are players waiting for the first sit-n-go tournament to start. There is a no limit game running, and two 2/4 tables going.

The difference is that the Plaza is offering a $40 buy-in sit-n-go tournament. These tournaments run from 10:00AM to 5:00PM daily. As soon as there are ten players signed up, a new table is started. This goes on all day and keeps the action going continuously. Players jump from one sit-n-go to the next one, or they get into the ring games.

When all the rooms are slow go to the Plaza. You'll find action there.

Good Luck
