Most Jackpot SNGs follow the same format across the sites but partypoker has just made a big change to their SPINS.
They still follow the same three-handed format, with a multiplier between 2x and 240,000x your entry fee.
Now, however, they have more dynamic payout and stack sizes. Low multipliers are faster and pay out one player, big multipliers reward more players and are deeper.
The blind levels remain the same, but a 2x SPIN starts with just 300 chips with 1-minute levels and a 10-second time bank. At the other end of the spectrum, a 240x game would start with 1,000 chips, 5-minute blind levels, and a 30-second time bank.
The more significant change is that the payout structures change. It is winner-takes-all until you get to 10x SPINS, where the winner gets 80% of the prize pool and the runner-up gets 20%. Once the SPIN gets to 25x all three players win a prize, with the winner getting 83.34% and the other two players getting 8.33% each.
| Multiplier range | 2-2.99 | 3-3.99 | 4-4.99 | 5-9.99 | 10-24.99 | 25-119.99 | 120-239.99 | 240+ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| First prize % | 100% | 100% | 100% | 100% | 80% | 83.34% | 83.34% | 83.34% |
| Second prize % | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 20% | 8.33% | 8.33% | 8.33% |
| Third prize % | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 0% | 8.33% | 8.33% | 8.33% |
| Starting stack | 300 | 500 | 500 | 500 | 750 | 750 | 750 | 1000 |
| Timebank (seconds) | 00:10 | 00:10 | 00:15 | 00:15 | 00:15 | 00:20 | 00:20 | 00:30 |
| Level time (minutes) | 01:00 | 01:00 | 02:00 | 03:00 | 03:00 | 04:00 | 05:00 | 05:00 |
The multipliers themselves are also dynamic. A SPIN might be 2.28x, or 10.8x, or 105x, rather than 2x/10x/100x.
Below, however, are the highest and lowest games for each buy-in level:
| Buy-in | Rake | Min prize pool | Max prize pool |
|---|---|---|---|
| $0.25 | 8% | $0.50 | $3,000 |
| $1.00 | 8% | $2 | $12,000 |
| $3.00 | 8% | $6 | $36,000 |
| $5.00 | 8% | $10 | $1,200,000 |
| $10.00 | 6% | $20 | $120,000 |
| $20.00 | 6% | $40 | $240,000 |
| $50.00 | 5% | $100 | $600,000 |
| $100.00 | 5% | $200 | $1,200,000 |
