The Lottery Sit and Go

Two weeks after EPT Barcelona promotional tournaments ended, PokerStars has introduced new vacation package Spins.

The €20, €50 and €0.25 Spins were removed from the client, and the top multiplier reduced to 1000x.

New regular $100 tournament triggers two million-dollar prize pools; the $5 promotional special hits three times.

New permanent top prize payout introduced on PokerStars’ lottery SNGs.

Lotteries, Jackpots, Spins, Expressos, Twisters. Whatever you call them, Lottery Sit and Gos have changed the online poker landscape. Here’s how it happened.

French market lead adds high stakes Expresso tournament with €1 million top prize.

3-Max hyperturbo tournaments get a weekly spot in the PokerStars France weekend schedule.

Random prize pool hyperturbos comes to independent online poker room.

25c Spin & Gos available in French and Spanish markets.

The expanded range renews concerns about the impact lottery SNGs are having on the player ecology.

The Mega Bonus brings fun to the moment of making a deposit.

In spite of the success achieved by their competitors, 888poker and bwin.party remain without their own versions of the lottery-style SNG.
