what methods do you use to play spin go aggressiveness patience, wait high card, I've played a lot of spin and there are thousands of variances I think the amount of chips does not let us decide over time so I think it's better to move forward with what we have:confused:

Have you read the Cardschat Strategy Article on Spin n Go's?

https://www.cardschat.com/spin-and-go-strategy.php

Anyway, I like playing them to test my postflop skills although I know its a losing game.


In Spin n Go you can't fold everything waiting for a hand so you gotta play most of your hands. And since everyone is doing the same, everyone can have everything in every hand. So knowing that you should stop playing the cards and start playing the players, because most of the time everyone is playing with crappy hands that are happy to fold when a King or an Ace hit the board.

You should try to play heads up most of the pots to lower the variance of someone hitting magic cards. Now, with just two opponents, playing most of their hands you should track tendecies early on. So when heads up you should exploit his tendecies. Is he aggresive? Wait for that flop or premium pair and give him rope to hang himself. Is he tight? bluff him whenever the board hits big cards.

You also have to consider your image too and play by it. If you give a loose image get advantage of it by value betting the most with good hands. If you give a tight image bluff and overbet a nice pot to get it. You got to know when to fold, when to call, when to make some moves.

Now every time somebody have a nice looking drawing hand like A10+, K10+, Q10+ (you get the idea) he will bet bigger preflop, and he will also keep betting the flop, turn and even river big even if he dont hit anything. Since its spin n go, most of the times all that bets would be like most of his stack in that pot. Knowing that, you can exploit it. My personal favorite is when I see a big bet preflop that wont hurt my stack to call, call it with any decent hand with my mind either to flop something good or bluff and check raise if there is no high cards. If he folds I win the pot, if he calls I have turn and river to make a good hand.


You should just play your best poker but keep in mind that many pots that reach showdown will be judged by luck. So prepare yourself for crazy bad beats.

I don't think jackpot poker is to be trusted on non public non regulated online casinos. The house probably keep the difference until they make profit or they decrease the programming to payout less. The Crown casino did it with their slots underworld casinos are most certainly doing it. pokerstars is legit publicly traded and regulated so its up-up.

It is best not to play such tournaments at all.
This is definitely, a very quick way to spend your money.
For me, tournaments of this format were always unprofitable.
I mainly play in MTT tournaments that bring me profits.

If you want to win at least something in Spin&Go , you need to play aggressive! You know, that the blinds are growing really fast, so, you need to raise a lot anyway. If you will play very carefully you can,t win anything in Spin&Go.

open question

On poker stars quite loose and aggressive however on party poker i'm finding the need to tighten up a lot and play way more methodically.

Good luck at the tables!

Patience is the way i play. I only wait for hands to go all in pre flop unless if I’m BB and I can check to see a free flop

Hi. I would not play this game if I were you. This game is cruel, it takes a lot of cold blood. I was playing this game and what I thought about it was: that the site chose the winners. but this is just the impression they give, due to the extreme variation that is in this game. I deleted this game from my games some time ago. Anyway, good luck.

You should play agressive,because blinds goes up really fast,usually to win spin n go you need to win atleast one flip too,on internet you can find what ranges you need to shove heads up,when to 3 -bet etc..

For a hyper format, spin n'gos are relatively deeper than other hyper turbo games on other poker sites; 25bbs to begin with, 3min blind level with the binds inceasing softly.
I think you can play smart in this format, I play not that loose and try not to be passive, try also not to be very aggressive, especially with high buy ins and the high prizepools, because people tend to be very tight, and 3 handed is almost HU, so hard to make a real hand.

What I do is being reasonably aggressive, try to take all incontested enough pots, and value as much as I can when I have it.

These games can eat your soul if you let it. Grinding them can be very boring until you hit something big. And then if you dont win back to a game of 2x payout.

PokerStars are always making challenges that force you to play spin n go. I think this tells you that they make a lot of money on these. If pokerstars make lots, the players lose lots.

I agree. The worst is this when you hit something big and you lose. It's the end of your head, very sad.

Spin & go can be profitable but you need to play with a big roll of 4 to 5 hundred buy ins and concentrate on high scores, as they those are the times you will get your profit

SPIN GO

Spin Go, is a game more fortunate character, you do not have much game strategy.
Usually there are three players at a table, with a 5BB, where any mistake can be fatal, and the one who wants to leave the front has a great chance of victory.
This game usually has an award that goes 2 to 1000 times the buy in. A good strategy is to go all in with some high connector pair.

I used to play a lot of spin & go games, and nowadays I do not really play.
I think it's aggressive to play, there is really no time to wait
Very high variance, this is why with a perfect strategy you can only achieve minimal extra.

To have more opportunity to win in this modality, you must study before playing, study the range of hands, pre flop, post flop, size of bets, etc, you also have to study what type of players are at your table.
After a game session, you must dedicate at least 30 minutes to study your hands and evaluate your mistakes.
