The WSOP Online bracelet series is currently underway at GGPoker, bringing increased activity to the operator’s tables. At the other end of the spectrum, Spin & Gold, its lottery-style sit and go (LSNG) format, has also been generating plenty of action, with another record jackpot landing on the site.
At midnight on Monday, another million-dollar jackpot was triggered on GGPoker’s Spin & Gold, leaving three players competing for a seven-figure prize pool.
The jackpot came in a $200 buy-in game, where the odds of triggering the top prize are extremely low at just 30 in 10 million. It marked the 13th million-dollar jackpot awarded by GGPoker in 2026 and the 38th since Spin & Gold was introduced.

The latest hit also adds to a recent run of big jackpots across GGPoker and PokerStars. Both operators have seen their jackpot sit and go formats produce multiple top prizes in recent weeks. Although the format has been around for more than a decade, the games, often simply referred to as Spins, continue to attract attention as the biggest multipliers keep landing.
This latest GGPoker jackpot was eventually won by Mattias Hansen of Denmark, making him the 13th player to win the Spin & Gold jackpot on the site. GGPoker uses a relatively flat payout structure when the jackpot reaches $1 million, with $500,000 going to the winner, $300,000 to second place, and $200,000 to third.
That structure differs from PokerStars, where a jackpot produces a $1.2 million prize pool. The winner receives $1 million, while second place gets $120,000 and third place takes $80,000. GGPoker’s approach spreads the money more evenly between the three players, meaning everyone at the final table walks away with a substantial payday.
The two runners-up in the latest GGPoker jackpot were both from Latvia. TegridyEV finished in second place and collected $300,000, while another Latvian player, William Yeats, took third place and received $200,000.
PokerStars Also On A Run
GGPoker is not the only operator to have experienced a recent run of jackpot wins. PokerStars has also seen three $1 million jackpots hit its Spin & Go format in the past few weeks.
Remarkably, all three were triggered in the $5 buy-in game, where the odds of hitting the top jackpot are just one in 10 million. Given those odds, seeing three top prizes arrive within such a short period is particularly unusual for PokerStars.
The operator has historically recorded relatively few of these jackpots. Since Spin & Go launched, around 50 million-dollar jackpots have been awarded. Only two were recorded in 2024 and one in 2025, before three arrived between July and August this year.

GGPoker, meanwhile, is having its busiest year yet for the format itself. The network has already awarded 13 million-dollar jackpots in 2026, its highest annual total since Spin & Gold launched and all have come in the 3-handed variant. That includes a remarkable five jackpots during a four-week period between February and March.
The latest addition takes GGPoker’s lifetime total to 38 million-dollar jackpots, putting the operator well ahead of its previous annual records.
The action has not been limited to the very top jackpot either. GGPoker has also recorded several large multipliers at much lower buy-ins this year. On September 3, for example, a $100,000 jackpot was triggered in a $1 Spin & Gold game played six-handed, representing a 100,000x multiplier.
The operator has also seen several $10,000 jackpots land in its 25-cent games, showing that the biggest multipliers are not restricted to the higher-stakes versions of Spin & Gold.
Beyond GGPoker and PokerStars, Winamax has also been recording frequent jackpot hits in Southern Europe. PokerStars’ US operation, now branded PokerStars on FanDuel, joined the recent run as well, awarding a jackpot in July. Its format has a lower ceiling, however, with the maximum prize pool capped at $250,000.
