November is shaping up to be an exciting month at PokerStars, as ‘Spingo’ returns for three action-packed weeks from November 9 to 30, 2026, with more than $200,000 in prizes up for grabs.

Combining the fast-paced action of PokerStars’ popular Spin & Go tournaments with a fun, puzzle-inspired twist, Spingo gives players another chance to turn their Spin & Go sessions into cash rewards.

To get involved, players must first opt-in to the ‘Spingo Puzzle’ via the Challenges window on PokerStars and then play Spin & Go’s – PokerStars’ three-player, Hyper-Turbo Sit & Go tournaments available in Hold’em and Omaha, with buy-ins ranging from just $0.50 all the way up to $1,000. Tournaments have randomly drawn prize pools with prizes of up to $1 million.

Players can collect numbers automatically as they play Spin & Go games, with completed horizontal or vertical lines unlocking cash rewards along the way. Those who complete their entire card can earn an additional reward, giving players even more ways to win.

“April’s Spingo debut was great fun, and I’m excited to see it return this November,” said PokerStars Ambassador Nick Walsh. “I love the pace and unpredictability of Spin & Gos, and Spingo takes that to the next level, building on the fast-paced, hyper-turbo format players already know and love, with an extra twist that gives you something to look forward to with every game. If you haven’t given it a go yet, now’s the perfect time to get involved.”

The first iteration of Spingo launched in April 2026 with more than $160,000 in prizes, attracting 11,755 players who completed at least one reward stage, including 4,583 who completed the entire puzzle, with the top-rewarded player earning $6,500 over the promotional period, offering players a fresh way to experience one of PokerStars’ most popular fast-folding, short-format poker experiences.

HOW DOES SPINGO WORK?

Spingo is available on the following licenses: .BG, .CH, .COM/.EU, .EE, .RO, and Betfair UK.

There’s an exciting new game coming to PokerStars. Its name may sound familiar, but it’s a brand new challenge to play.

It’s called Spingo.

So what is Spingo? And what’s the connection with Spin & Go? We’re glad you asked.

Spingo is a fresh take on the Spin & Go format. It combines speed and collectables, accessible from your Challenge window. Select Spingo Card Puzzle and opt in to start playing.

When you do, you’ll receive a 5v5 card with 24 numbers and a space in the middle.

This is your individual card for the length of the Spingo campaign. That’ll run from now all the way through to Monday, November 30, 2026.

From that point on, your job is simple.

HOW TO PLAY

Start by playing Spin & Go’s at any buy-in. And they’re designed to suit any bankroll. So you can play for as little as $0.50 all the way up to $1,000.

This is the key part.

Every time you play, a number will appear underneath the SAG spinner.

Your job is to collect these numbers. As you do, they’ll be added to your Spingo card. That part is automatic, so no need to keep tabs with a big marker pen.

And that free space you’ll see in the middle is counted as already collected.

The more numbers you collect, the more chances you have to collect prizes.

So let’s get to that part.

HOW TO WIN

Each time you fill in a horizontal or vertical line on your card, you’ll win an instant cash prize.

The amount will be x2 the minimum buy-in of the Spin & Go you played, and it will appear automatically in your chest.

SO that’s five possible lines to complete.

Of course there’s another way to win, and that’s to complete your entire card.

If you do that, you’ll win an even bigger cash reward of x3 your minimum SAG played.

EXPLORING THE SPIN & GO FORMAT

You’re likely already familiar with the Spin & Go format. But if not, they’re super-fast poker games that you can play any time, and for very small buy-ins.

They’re a flexible way to enjoy poker, without lengthy time commitments. And, in the case of Spingo, they’re a fun way to explore the format. And you can track your progress towards your next reward along the way.

Spingo runs until Monday, November 30, 2026, so you have plenty of time to earn your share of the $200K prize pool.
