Are spin & go $ 0.25 profitable?

[Ricey155]

I'd say not really, I've watched courtnybee get hammered playing solid cards. With 500 chips people seem to go manic at around half stack and load the all in button. Then its just spin the coin stuff. So many bad beats when leading / closing out it does nothing for your nerves 😓

 

[andreigabor]

I wish to no play these spin 'n go's no more, it's such a waste of money and time, I become angry when I play this type of game, I wish to remove this from pokerstars )))

 

[Entrik]

I remember from the backs I picked up $ 53 from $ 1 and then decided to go higher by backs at $ 3 for $ 5 and then lost everything) in the beginning it gives you a win and then you do not ... As for whom krch)

People in this thread are obviously only talking about their own experiences with spin n gos, limited experience which leads them to believe one or the other thing.
There are professional spin n go players, so IT IS PROFITABLE if you are good enough. At the higher spin n go levels the rake is 6%, and at 25c and 1$ spins it's 8% rake. But the higher rake at the micro stakes spin n gos is made up for by the terrible players that reside there.
I have played a few hundred of the 1$ spin n gos over the last few months, and I think I'm up between 50-100 bucks on spins over this time. I might obviously just be well above the EV, so if you ask me what I think about spin n gos I will say: Play them, they are awesome! Again, as I said, the answer will be different depending on who you ask.
Spin n gos is a hit for me for 3 reasons: They are fun, fast, and I get to practice short handed play, which is always an area you'd want to improve in your holdem game

I currently do not have enough bankroll to play nl2 and I thought about trying out the spin of 0.25 $, which I think can get to profitability or end in losses

Play freerolls and Fixed holdem 2/4 cent.

Is it spin poker? Wash is the same lottery buy, hyper turbo + 3 people, play better in the usual 0.25 tournaments, the chances are much more to win, then from this money to further develop, I myself started with free 0.10 turbo 360 people, I remember 2-3 times with 1- 3 place took, and then began to play quietly, I think that a good amount can be won only in a multi-table tournament, judging by himself.

 

[Svyat66556]

Maybe Yes because many players are not serious about the game when playing on very little money

 

[Glebtyzhnyh90]

How can it be otherwise related to a hyper turbo with a short stack, well, it's ridiculous, in my opinion, money is to the wind, although someone can win on this, but I do not think that there are many such

Is good option to play spin 0.25, but I recommend tournaments of 0.10 where the prizes are more profitable and your style will improve for when you add level and your bankrol is bigger

 

[kristi255]

I think it's profitable. If they know how to play this quick way to increase bankroll. It's not worth waiting for some big winnings for the times. And so play with the mind and everything will turn out)

If you want to make profit on spin&go you have to win at least 40% of the games.
Here are my calculations for 1000 spin&go games:
View attachment spingo.pdf

There is a 4 charts for 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% of games won, it's little bit chaotic, but I was hurry.
ITM = In the money = 1st place ofc

 

[karkachi]

I do not really like spin and go because most of the time I do not like to play tournaments or even cash games.

 

[Jankou36]

I do not really like spin and go because most of the time I do not like to play tournaments or even cash games.

so what do you play?

 

[leonardovilela]

Not really profitable. Most of the time you'll have a $0,50 prize pool, which means 1/3 of rake (total $1,50). Besides, you start short stacked, so you're gonna need a lot more luck than skills.

 

[Dan Lucas]

I don't often play them, but at $0.25, when I play solid, I generally make small profit. So, play 6 and make net 25 cents, but it is very long process unless you get real lucky and hit a big multiplier. Playing with $.80 on cash table can be profitable, but you have to get lucky with such a small roll. All it takes is one bad beat to knock you out. $.10 sit n gos also require some luck to make the money, but it does give you more chances with a small bankroll. But as indicated earlier, variance is much higher than spin n go. Another factor to consider is that if you can break even, you earn fpp's and starscoins which you can use to purchase tournament tickets.

They can be, it depends on various reasons, such as if you're good at Heads up, if you play a lot of volume and you have a sufficient bankroll because there are ups and downs and if you don't tilt easily as you'll see a LOT of donks.

You also need patience and a bit of luck searching for that better prize. For example if you play $1 spins usually your prize will be $2 which isn't good ROI, but if you stick to it, it's not uncommon to hit $4 and $6 prizes which will boost your bankroll if you win them.

 

[lonythedude]

that 025 are pretty easy but im unlucky and never hit any bigger than x6

 

[feecg]

I think it can be profitable and you will learn a lot playing it. It's profitable because if you play well you will win 1 in 2 or 3 times, which is great since sometimes the prize can go to 1 dolar or even more if you gat lucky. And learn a lot because you will face heads up situations most of the time, so you will become able to find some spots to make some moves and to extract chips wisely if you pay attention. I played some spin and go's for a while and I could get some money, like about 4 or 5 dollars, but I just played for some days or esporadically, so I can't say in the long term what it's like. But I firmly recommend, good luck

 

[gocho2009]

I have not been profitable ...

 

[Alucard]

I lost my $20 bankroll playing spin n gos. It was very addictive and I was trying to win back my lost money.

And if you keep on playing one game after anther, it'll get very frustrating and expensive.
Rarely does a good multiplier come up and even then it's very hard to win cause most of the time it depends on luck.

At least that's my experience and I'll never play spin n gos

 

[LCool888]

I think they could be but there's a LOT of variance.

 

[Chipsteal_jj]

No spin n go is profitable. Play sit n go and improve your game.

 

[vic75]

The only way they can be profitable is if you hit good multipliers the same with blasts on 888 poker. Example I played over 1000 blast since the start of the year and broke even biggest multiplier hit was a 10x.

 

[AlbieTross]

I think they're fun and exciting, but not the best way to win big.
