GGPoker’s Spin & Gold tournaments are three-handed affairs with randomized prizepools, similar to the jackpot sit & go tourneys you’ll find on various other online sites.
What you won’t always find everywhere else is a $1 million jackpot prizepool. It’s the top multiplier possible in these fast, short-stacked games, and as such it’s unreasonable to expect them to hit with any great frequency.
But that’s just what’s happened earlier week, as the prize spinner landed on the very top prize no less than three times in the space of three days.
From $10 to $500K in minutes
The first million-dollar moment of the week happened last Sunday, March 8, at a $50 Spin & Gold table.
As is customary when the top multiplier hits, each one of the three players seated walked away with at least $200K, with the player ‘Justmyflower’ taking the top prize of $500K.
Two days later the maximum multiplier hit again, not once but twice, in a $10 game and a $200 tourney.
The lucky player who managed to spin $10 into $500K in just a few minutes was ‘rcdanielllll’. Heads-up with blinds of just 30/60 and near-even stacks, their opponent ‘SnuchiBuchi’ jammed with and ‘rcdanielllll’ made a brave call with
. Hitting top pair on the flop would prove to be the difference between the $300K runner-up prize and the half a milly up top.
That same day, ‘Borisz Bulgakov’ played a $200 Spin & Gold, hit the big one and won it for another $500K.
The result is three very happy players, and a $3M dent in GGPoker’s own coffers.
The $1M jackpot has already been hit at least twice before during this calendar year, with a $200 Spin & Gold spiking the maximum on February 19 and a $10 tourney hitting big on March 3.
Spin & Gold tournaments are available now, at stakes from $0.25 to $200, on GGPoker.
