Full Tilt Poker Jackpot SNG hits $100,000 prize

 Full Tilt Poker introduced their Jackpot SNG game type at the end of June, and the format is a big success, PokerStars recently announced that they are going to add it to their game offerings also, under the name Spin & Go. It didn't take long for one of the top prizes to be "spun out" by the players.

The sit&go in question happened at the $50 Jackpot SNG tables, that were introduced as of August 1, and it hit the maximum multiplier of 2000, to essentially turn the 3 handed sit and go into a $100,000 dollar game.

The three players decided to split the money, 3rd place finisher gismoR1, an Austrian player, received $10,000, roughly 200 times the amount of his buyin, while the remaning two Australian players, FdotFloss and SirSion split the remanining money equally, with each one receiving $45,000.

The poker variant, which was started by French site Winamax, is quickly becoming one of the most popular games in every network that offers them, and this prize shows why the format is so popular. They launch really quick, they finish really fast, and there is always a chance of a huge score, which is a format that appeals to lots of recreational players.
