#3 June 2nd, 2016, 6:55 PM

In PokerStars tournaments players are very aggressive but play with nothing in his letter to the lot but also ay several safe playing calmer

#4 June 2nd, 2016, 7:04 PM

They're good spin and go tournaments, only in relation to the ordinary tournaments need a little more luck, but I did and I do not have in poker, many are aggressive only you put everything and see what happens.

#5 June 2nd, 2016, 7:34 PM

well i love SnG tours.I play them every day they are funnn n if u r lucky u can win big cash prize. I prefer to play agressive. Buy in 3bucks max.

#6 June 2nd, 2016, 7:35 PM

You have to be aggressive. 3 people on the table, being passive will not work.

I prefer the $1 buy-ins, these type of tournaments aren't for the prize IMO, they are just good for a short burst of adrenaline :P

#7 June 2nd, 2016, 7:38 PM

I don't play them.
I always get twice my buy-in.
And when I get four time the buy-in, I lose

the spin & go are crazy ... players kinda like to gamble instead of playing (i mean if they get a AX they go all in , same for K10(and higher) and so on but i play low stakes 0,25-3$ but i got a theory that the all in parts are just ppls that don't wana play the spin & go and just get the free thicket from compliting the challanges , and my best reward was for a 1$ entry a 240 $ prize pool , my play style is kinda chill and w8 for hands to play cuz like i said some are crazy and go all in all the time and just w8 for them to get busted and then when i'm h/u i start playing the agressive part raising all my buttons , put the presure on them ,most of them will pay to see a flop and if they don't hit they fold (but then again i think just on low stakes u can get away with this cuz ppls play way way looser on low stakes i think )

Yeah that have a point, but i just cant chill in this kind of tournament i need to be "action man". Sometimes it works very well but sometimes i get busted p.s. sorry for bad english CHEERS

In tournaments and sng's on Pokerstars there are already a lot of bingo players, but in Spin & Go it's even worse. Small stack to start with, only 3 players, blinds going up quite fast, ... I hate gambling/shoving with anything but maybe that's the only way to do it on these Spin & Go's.

I am maybe bit more agressive on SnG then usually but thats way to play them i think i totally agree with you there is too many bingo plyrs but they are most of time cash machine for me cheers

I don't think it's that much of gambling with those hands honestly. With games you're always shorthanded 3 or 2 and short stacked (very fast at 15BB or less). So push/fold play seems appropriate in those cases with those hands.
However, I'm maybe not the best person to say this, as I'm not the best at spin and go. I would like to get better however, because people that are successful with them don't have to spend a lot of time (like with MTTs) and can hit the jackpot sometimes.

mathematicly i think it is the right decision and i still gotta learn to play more on the stats part then feelings ,i play mostly MTTs and there i prefer more of a 3 bet raise /or call then all in's preflop ( and yes the AK , AA, KK ,QQ i prefer to shove to avoid multiways in the pot ) cuz u can get back from a low stack instead of a busted one (i know i have a lot lot to learn but now i' m just speaking from my little experience gathered at this stackes , and most of the time when it's h/u the all in chills out if they see u don't wana pay , and yes at the gamble part i think i made a mistake giving those cards but in all honesty i felt a lil generous ) cuz u will see crazier cards then those )

As always, micro-buy-ins are for a lot of people just pennies and not worth enough to play seriously. Anyway, every spin and go is - although there are 3 players - kind of a heads-up! From the first hand on you should use your position aggressively! Be careful, if there's is a player who always makes all-in. Than it is the old story that you could/will lose with a good/strong hand against a fish! ;-)

I agree there is bunch of bingo players i kind in thees few days give up from them cuz there is too much fish....

The problem with these games is that even if you try to play sound poker (hard enough with short starting stacks and very fast blinds) is that if the other 2 are playing the hyper aggressive style you will quite often find yourself heads up as a 2 to 1 chip underdog in just a few hands as 1 of them will take the other out in short order.
Once that happens it can be a steep hill to climb.

#17 June 5th, 2016, 3:55 AM

I'm just bragging, you have to be aggressive and be capable of folding crap on the button, do not button raise just for the sake of button raising.

I have played the 25 cents one. Its really pointless because its a repetitive 50 cents rewards. So seems that it only worth it if you make a reasonable buy in amount.

#19 June 5th, 2016, 2:01 PM

For me it's more like Spin and KO
Also, I have played 100 of them now in play money, to get the feeling of the a bit.
Most of the times I play for a prize pool double the buy in, but the bigger prizes seem to pass me by more than it says on pokerstars website.
It's only a small percentage lower, but I was wondering if I'm the only one or if it's a systematic thing.
got 19 % 4x buy in (PS says 20-21 %)
got 1 % 6x buy in (PS says 3-5 %)
got 0 % more than that (PS says 0.5 % so on 100 games that seems totally fine)

Nice one ! Thank you!

#21 June 5th, 2016, 7:18 PM

It is a hyper turbo. You will be AI very fast. There is a lot of luck and a lot of variance involved. There are skill sets you can use, but the window between using skill, and having to shove ATC and call with marginal hands, is small.

#22 June 5th, 2016, 7:55 PM

im not agressive. my last win was spin 0.25 where i won 30 dollars ))) but a lot of players in spins very aagresive and play without hand

#23 June 5th, 2016, 7:59 PM

I don't play them

Once you know that they are doing that take advantage of it, like fletchdad said, the games don't last long so you must make best use of your hands you get, I quite often will show an A if they fold to my raise, and then as long as you don't do it often, play in a similar way to the A hand and am able to steal, I also quite often will show the kicker to my A and some people take it personally which is what you want, then with a premium hand they will quite often think you are bluffing.

SPnG's are a mix of good hands and mind games, once you get in their head they are after revenge and play any hand as long as one is a picture card which is easily exploited.

I normally play $3 and $7 SPnG's, the above were attempts to build my BR that went my way.

I must say also that there are some very good players that play these also, but I mainly run into bad players.

#25 June 9th, 2016, 10:33 AM

My first 25x $3 game

I had to fight to get the win, had a couple of suckouts against me then dug deep and got the win.

I always play of $0.25, I prefer to play aggressively because there are only three player on table

and the biggest reward I got was $1.50 I won it many times
soon I will going to play of $5

#27 June 9th, 2016, 12:35 PM

dont really like them its rare to win something better than +50% of your buy-in ,at least they are fast ..so you should be aggressive its 3 players !! the bigest price for me was 6$ for 0,25

#28 June 9th, 2016, 7:31 PM

hi guys,i've played a lot's of spin&go lately but no big prize poll...do you know someone who played for maximum??and someone has any tips ,strategy,videos for spin&go?.Thanks!

#29 June 10th, 2016, 3:16 AM

Spin&go's are lots of fun, since you do not know what you'll end up playing for. But you are vs 2 people with 25 big blinds. Therefore, it won't be too long since you end up going all in. I do not favour them, because there's going to be tremendous amounts of variance in these hands, since there's only 3 of you - lot of cards at disposal. I've heard some of my friends call it 50/50, you can win money easily, you can lose it easily - a spin.

#30 June 12th, 2016, 11:35 AM

Aggression wins, ran into early suckouts and got the win in the end.

You won't get the bigger prizes if you only play 1 or 2 of these games.

I already won my ticket of 5 dollars and with that ticket win $ 20 in pokerstar

#32 June 12th, 2016, 7:15 PM

sorry i will answer to my question about strategy https://www.cardschat.com/spin-and-go-strategy.php

#33 June 14th, 2016, 6:29 PM

Spin-end-go is a great way to win a big prize, even with a minimum deposit. Starting already with the $ 0.25 you can boost your bankroll much.

#34 June 15th, 2016, 12:55 PM

i've been playing lots of .25c spin and go lately and winning quite regularly.... i always thought it was gambling, but if you play patiently aggressive you can do well....

you will go up against some bingo players, so you'll end up calling a shove with k9o sometimes....

i've had a $6.50 pot, which i won.... and a 2.50 pot, which i won too!!

most seem to be .50c pots, but occasionally 1.00...

i like the heads up part, as i think my headsup play needs practice...

i've built up bankroll by $10 in the last few days playing .25c...

i like it

#35 June 15th, 2016, 7:58 PM

I have played a few Spin & Go tournaments. It's not my kind of play!

I love the freeroll tournaments best. I'm not an agressive player, I'm more carefull and calculating.
