MTT starts at a fixed time and reaches hundreds/thousands of players across many tables. SNG (Sit & Go) is a single-table tournament that starts as soon as 9/6/2 players register — no pre-registration.

Which format is most profitable?

Depends on the player. Spin & Gold and Battle Royale are highest hourly EV if your Push/Fold is sharp. Long MTTs give high ROI but huge variance. Cash Games / Rush & Cash are most stable.

Progressive Knockout — an MTT variant with a progressive bounty. Half of the buy-in becomes a personal bounty; every knockout pays you half the victim's bounty in cash and adds the other half to your own.

Are Freerolls really free?

Yes. No buy-in, no requirements. Prize is small but real — a great way for beginners to try tournaments and build a small bankroll with zero risk.

I have an hour or less: Spin & Gold, Flip & Go, or Heads-Up SNG.
Beginner in training: Freerolls — free, nothing to lose. Then low-stake SNG.
I have a full evening: Classic MTT or GG Masters — real prize, real challenge.
I want low variance: Battle Royale — every knockout pays, even early exits can be profitable.
Advanced player: PKO, GG Masters, High Rollers, Heads-Up Sit & Go.
Max hands per hour: not a tournament — Rush & Cash.
