Jackpot Poker features PokerStars' wildly popular Spin & Go tournaments that can turn a small buy-in tournament into a massive prize pool. The fast-form three-person tournament feature a jackpot element that determines the final prize pool after the players take their seats and before the first card is dealt.

Jackpot Poker is the only social poker game to offer this innovative tournament format to players.
These adrenaline-fuelled short burst games can often produce a tournament winner within 10 minutes of play and have revolutionised the world of online poker in the last year.
