Sit & Go Hero tournaments give you the chance to play for a prize pool worth up to 10,000 times your initial buy-in, making it possible to turn a $20 investment into a $170,000 fortune in a matter of minutes.

These exciting jackpot Sit & Go tournaments are only available at partypoker where you can play them on your computer or your favorite mobile device. Like other online poker sites’ jackpot Sit & Go formats, Sit & Go Hero games randomly assign the prize pool before the first cards are dealt. As soon as the table is full and ready to start, the various multipliers spin around the table, finally settling on two times, four times, six times, 10 times, 50 times, 100 times, 1,000 times or a huge 10,000 times the initial buy-in.

partypoker’s Sit & Go Hero tournaments have two major differences from the majority of the jackpot Sit & Go games you can play elsewhere online. Firstly, Sit & Go Hero is played on four-handed tables instead of three-handed tables, which partypoker says allows them to award the larger multipliers more frequently.

Secondly, one of the four Sit & Go Hero players is randomly selected to play with a bounty on their heads, adding a fresh dynamic to the game. Some of the bounties (especially when the multiplier is large) can be quite substantial, even in the lower buy in games.

Currently, Sit & Go Hero tournaments are available with $1, $3, $5, $10 and $20 buy-ins and they pay out as shown below:
