Sit & Go (SNG) — Poker Definition

Quick answer

Sit & Go (SNG): a poker tournament that begins after the required number of players register rather than at a fixed scheduled start time.

Why it matters

Sit & Gos can use many payout structures. Conventional SNGs often pay higher prizes for higher finishing positions, while Double Up / Double or Nothing SNGs use flat payouts for the surviving group.
