MPN Reworks Sit and Go Structures, Trials New Formats
Key Takeaways
  • The site will try testing two new formats—multi-table SNGs and Super Bounty SNGs, where the entire prize pool is paid out in bounties.
  • Rake increase at double or nothings to discourage the game.
  • The network is also changing the rake on sit and go tournaments.

Microgaming’s online poker network MPN has rejigged its sit and go tournaments, simplifying the offerings, trialing new formats and reworking the rake strcture.

The structure of tournaments have been altered so there is a consistency between game types. Following the changes, scheduled to come into effect next week, all tournaments identified as “turbo” will have 2000 starting chips, 18 seconds to act, and 30 seconds of time bank.

Similarly all “super turbo” games will have 500 starting chips and levels will all last 3 minutes.
