Sit n Go Guide


The majority of poker games on Jsp are played in the form of "Sit-n-Go's". This currently includes 'heads up' games and different forms of 'all in' games.

A designated number of people join a game, and you play until you either have zero chips or you have won the game.

_____________________________________________________________


Common games:
AI or a/i - "All in" - Typically 2 players. Both players will go all on the very first hand, no matter what.

WW = Winner Wins. The winner of the game wins the amount of forum gold played for.
LW = Loser Wins. The loser of the game wins the amount of forum gold played for.
HU or h/u - "Heads up" - 1v1 standard poker match.



To begin betting in this fashion, you can either find a thread looking for a game or post your own to get a game for the amount and type that you want.
To organize the game, both players will meet on Discord. You can either join the BnP server or directly message someone using their given Discord username.
You may also simply post your Discord username and "Join Game Lobby X" so both players will join the same Discord game lobby channel to call the game. This saves some of the above hassle.
One person will "call" a game ID, the last two or three digits of the table game number, so that both players join the same game.

_____________________________________________________________


Ensure that your Pokerstars settings reflect the settings in the image below:



If you run out of chips: Go to Cashier > Summary > Collect. This will allot you 12,500 play chips per 4 hours.

*Tip - To join Sit and Go games faster: Go to Settings > Game Play > Multi - Tabling > check Allow Registration without showing Buy-In dialog

Special Circumstances

Heads Up
In the event that a player disconnects in the middle of a match, both players may agree to have a "rematch," starting at the chip stacks that were left off. It is up to the player that did not disconnect to take a screen shot of the game and/or hand history proving what the chip stacks were at at the time of the disconnect. If the disconnected player had an advantage, or if the stacks were relatively close, the players may decide to null the game instead and agree on a draw. Please try to understand the other player's condition when dealing with this circumstance instead of trying to take advantage of the situation for free FG. Your reputation in BnP is all you have. Users may agree to a "D/C Clause" before the game, meaning to say that if one user disconnects, then the match must be resumed at the same stacks and blinds when the disconnected player returns.

All In
If a player is sitting out before the hand is dealt, the game is NULL. This includes if the player sitting out was second to act, and clicks "I'm back", after seeing their cards. If this happens, call a new table to re-do the game, do not play the all-in on the second hand.
If a game "Glitches" and the table becomes unresponsive, simply recall the game. The hand history should state that both players are sitting out, but it may not. Pokerstars has been having an issue when two players accept a rematch at the same time, the table will sometimes glitch. It is up to the Canner to prove this by simply taking a screenshot of the unresponsive table and having that evidence upon questioning.
If a player is not sitting out, and folds their hand, they lose the match. This includes if the player folded due to time running out, UNLESS the person who folded can prove with screenshots of hand history that they never saw their cards.
If an all in thread does not specify LW (Loser Wins) or WW (Winner Wins), it is assumed to be Winner Wins by default.
If there is a split pot in an all in hand, both players must go all in on the very next hand to decide the outcome. Do not call a new game.
In regards to pooled games, sending FG up front is an auto confirmation of your bet for this particular game. In order to retract this bet, you must contact the mediator of that particular game directly (PM or Discord) as soon as possible, preferably at least 5 minutes before the game is played.
