PokerStars on FanDuel Hits $1.58 Million in Payouts with Spin & Goal Promotion

PokerStars on FanDuel has awarded $1.58 million in prize payouts through its Spin & Goal promotion. The soccer-themed promotion has seen over 115,000 tournaments played at the $5 buy-in level, with approximately 345,000 total entries made. Around 30,000 individual players have participated in the Spin & Goal games, and 69 players have won the second top prize of $250 in the $5 Spin & Goal tournament.

The Spin & Goal promotion features a headline jackpot of $1 million, a substantial increase from the standard $5 Spin & Go's maximum prize of $50,000. New players in both the US and Ontario receive two complimentary tickets to the Spin & Goal tournament. The promotion is scheduled to continue through July, concluding shortly after the World Cup wraps up.

The Spin & Goal promotion first appeared during the 2014 World Cup tournament and returned for Euro 2020. The promotion ties directly into the World Cup and provides a clear promotional angle with its football-themed presentation.
