Spin & Go Max - Step-by-step guide
Before you hit the Spin & Go Max tables, or if you want a quick refresher, make sure you read our simple step-by-step guide to gameplay and prizes.
The number of players in any given Spin & Go Max tournament is not known before you register. Instead, a random draw held before the tournament starts will decide the number of players, ranging from three to eight. The number of players drawn directly influences the prize pool.
Check out the table below to see what the probabilities are for the number of players being selected for a game at each buy-in level.
Number of players | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Buy-in | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
$1 | 10% | 25% | 25% | 20% | 10% | 10% |
$2 | 10% | 25% | 25% | 20% | 10% | 10% |
$5 | 15% | 25% | 25% | 20% | 10% | 5% |
$10 | 15% | 35% | 30% | 20% | ||
$25 | 20% | 35% | 30% | 15% | ||
$50 | 25% | 40% | 35% | |||
Here's how it works: before play starts, three spinners will show three potential prizes for the tournament's eventual winner. When play ends, the prizes will be shuffled and hidden. The winner will then pick one of the prizes (see Step 4) at random.
If more than one player will be paid, this will be specified in the tournament lobby. Prizes for second place or lower are fixed after the pre-game spins, and are not affected by whatever prize the first-place finisher selects post-game.
If the top prize is drawn on one of the pre-game spinners, it will be guaranteed and the winner will not have to choose from the initial three options when the tournament ends.
There is a separate pay-out table for each combination of buy-in and the number of players. See the Payouts page for more on how prizes are awarded.
Number of players decided and prizes determined? Okay, it's time to start playing poker. Each Spin & Go Max tournament is No Limit Hold'em, if you need a refresher on the rules, check out this page.
The tournament plays down to a winner. If you make the money (but don’t finish in 1st place) you’re paid according to the payout tables.
If you win a Spin & Go Max, you'll get the chance to pick your prize.
Prizes drawn before the game will re-appear and then be shuffled and hidden. The winner will have 45 seconds to pick from one of the three hidden prizes. If they don't act in time the prize will be randomly selected for them.
To add even more excitement, when higher prizes are drawn (as specified in the payout tables) a 'Cash Out' option will be offered. Instead of randomly picking one of the hidden prizes at the end of the game, the winner can select to 'Cash Out' an amount offered. The Cash Out amount is equal to the average value of all three prizes, minus an amount which will create a compelling choice.
