HUSNG
HUSNG is short for heads-up sit and go, a tournament for two players that starts as soon as both have registered. The winner takes the whole prize pool, after the site's fee.
The simple explanation
In a heads-up sit and go you play one opponent, one on one, until one of you has all the chips. There is no waiting for a scheduled time. It is a fast form of poker in which you can play many matches in a short time.
A closer look
Heads-up play requires a wide range, since you post a blind on every hand, and an aggressive style. Because the format is winner-take-all, there is no payout structure to worry about, and the blinds rise at set intervals. HUSNGs are often played in turbo or hyper-turbo versions, in which the stacks are shallow. Skilled players play many of them at once to earn a steady profit.
A practical example
Two players each pay $10 plus a small fee and start with 1,500 chips. The winner takes the $20 prize pool.
