[magicius]

have any1 in here hitted someting BIG? like 1000$+ in one off these spins? my best one was a 1$ *10 witch i won. it gotta be a nice feeling to hit the 90000$ or what it is and win it in like 10 min

Or lose it HU when you hold KK and guy on other side call it with A6o and hit str8 or some other hand,maybe 6 on turn and another one on river?

In the big jackpot ones, everyone gets a decent pay out i think... Still like 5x your buy in maybe? Even if youre third, so its not too bad... if i have KK and someone wants to call me with A6o im more than happy 70% of the time i take 9k...

I think that Spin & Go's are very bad format to play for living or for constant winning. It's like combining sit & go's and MTTs and taking bad side from both (low ROI from first and hideous variance from last).

Too bad for hyper HU and SG grinders that Spin & Go's and other sites similar lotto tournaments seem to kill other hypers.

Played somewhere between 200 and 250 tournaments for$ 1. In the end, minus 26$ realized spin and go not for me, but very tempting))

I don't like spin&go's, yes the field is soft especially on the lower stakes ( think about all fish shoving first in on the 1st hand when it's a 2x pay-out) but I feel mentally it's frustrating because of all the bad beats.

Ofcourse it doens't really matter when it's a low payout spin&go, but when you do get a bigger pay out and you get sucked out buy a fish I find myself going on tilt more easily than getting a bad beat in a cashgame or sit&go.( just because bad beats are a part of the game you learn to adapt, but think about the 1 time you have tripple the buy in in your normal cash ame vs an eff. stack also tripple the buy in and you find yourself in close spots. if you lose the hand don't say it doesn't affect your emotions . )

offcourse you can say to yourself in the long run i'll suck out on others too and if I play right eventually it will work out right but with these type of tourneys the rake you pay makes it a very very VERY hard format to become a winning player. (+ playing 1$ tables whole days doens't make you any money, better go flip burgers instead.) or go play the higher stake tables, where the swings are naturally bigger ( in absolute numbers) and you'll find yourself more easily tiling in my opinion.

conclusion: just say no and hope the fish realize they're throwing away money faster than normal

this is only for cc players?

 

[thehurt]

1m payed out in 23 minutes to a player bingo are not that a lot of dough

Lose 3$ and won 4$. Not funny at all, but it's still a great opportunity to win some cash if you believe in luck

i love the spin and go promo because even though the prize pool is usually 2x the prize pool when you get a big prize pool its really good especially now that its been proved that the 1 million spin and go can be won so its no a huge scam
