Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

till act Three where you Win a Buy in for Foxwoods WPT event.
its cheep way to get into the Championship event.

can you take the 10 grand? instead of the seat?
there is a casino North of Toronto Ontario that has SNG's but they are winner take all. No second or third place.

Harrah's in AC theoretically have it. They keep a list and if they get 10 people they start one. They rarely happen and the rake exceeds 25%.

WHAAATTT ??? Seriously ??
Gosh, no wonder online poker is so popular. How can anyone think they can win money when 25% is getting pulled from each pot ?

I do know that the Indian and parimutuel card rooms here in South Florida started running sit-n-gos recently, probably because they noticed they'd become so popular online. Rake at the parimutuels is outrageous, something like 40%, whereas at the Seminoles it's a little less than 20%.
I would guess that probably a lot of casinos across the land have begun offering them in the past few months.
But if you're only 17 years old, then the answer is no, they don't offer them at all.
