Enter the SnG Matrix at Full Tilt

Filed in archive Internet Poker on October 16, 2008

Something fresh has flown into Full Tilt and its going to take some multi-tabling skillz for people to appreciate it. The new "Matrix" SnGs are now open to the public which pit the same six or nine players against each other in four different SnG's running concurrently with the positions being the only different factor.

The fun begins when the usual six or nine players register for the tournament and four table simultaneously appear on your screen pitting against the same six or nine players for five different prize pools. The payments for each individual tourney are the same as two places pay out for six player SnGs and three places for the nine players ones. The fun part comes with the matrix prize pool which awards the same places as the table, but via an individual's "Matrix Score" determines who wins the final prize pool.

You receive two points towards this pool from knocking out an opponent, one point for outlasting someone, and two bonus points for winning a table. Obviously, using a more aggressive style to attain KOs is necessary to be in the running for that Matrix Pool pay out. After playing a few, I can suggest using the following formula for choose the correct level of play: x * 4 = Matrix SnG buy-in amount (X = your normal amount/level of SnG play).

Find these exciting new SnGs under the Sit and Go tab, then choose the Matrix tab.
