STT’s, Cash Games, and MTT’s, have all been around for a long time, but the different twists and variants of these are a relatively new invention. Jackpot Sit and go’s for instance, are an interesting way to both spur players on to keep playing more tournaments, whilst making more money and offering a big prize too.

Cash games have not really evolved in the way they function, but there are always prmotions linked to cash games that you find online. The bonus for cracked aces or winning a pot with 2,7 in a ring game appear sometimes, and offer players an extra incentive at the poker tables.

Most of the development within online poker tournaments though, is in the shape of MTT’s. There are now a multitude of rebuys, freerolls, guaranteeds, with bounty payout possibilities for some. Added to these are ongoing leaderboards to reward those that are consistently successful.

Satellites to major land based events provide a potential stepping stone to poker glory too, and these can be found on almost any poker room you care to name. Online poker is evolving fast, and it will be interesting to see the new variants of tournaments and promotions that come to the fore over the next few years.
