888Poker Blast SitNGo pays $50K

Posted:February 2023

888Poker announced the latest set of winners which saw 3 players turn $5 into a share of $50,000 playing a Blast Sit'N'Go tournament. Most major poker sites have their own version of these jackpot Sit'N'Go tournaments - short handed tournaments that give players the chance to turn small amounts into huge jackpots.
 
In Blast games, players can win up to 10,000 times their initial buy in, which is exactly what these three lucky players won. This time, FlushyFish took 1st and a massive $35,000, second was Dustin69 who took home $10,000 and third was ryan3212 who banked a still impressive $5,000.
 
Blast Buy Ins
 
You'll always be pitched against two other players and you'll need to beat both to take down the prize, unless of course you take the top prize - 10,000 x the buy in. Within these games all 3 players will take a share of the prize. There are a range of buy ins from as little as 10c all the way up to $100, which sees a jackpot of $1M. In 2021, three players hit that massive jackpot which say the prize split at $700K, $200K and $100K.
 
These games used to feature an automatic timer and all in however following negative feedback this was since removed. This was fairly similar in structure to Spin and Go Max on PokerStars, who have opted to stick with a 20 hand game length. How this works is that after the 20 hands, all players are automatically all in and a winner is decided, so time is of the essence to chip up.
 
888Poker took steps to remove the timer and all in from most of their Sit'N'Go tournaments. A good thing in our books.

What else is going on at 888Poker?

888Poker offers some great action. It has always been right up there in terms of the number of less skilled players due to the integration of their casino, which does attract players to the table. 888Poker also still features heads up play.
There is an action packed tournament schedule with some massive prize pools. Whilst they might not be PokerStar sized, you have fewer entrants to get past on still sizeable prizepools, which is why many people also play at 888Poker.
 
The site also has one of the best player incentives and rewards programs. As a new player you'll be entitled to a range of free rolls and free cash offers. Existing players can reap the rewards from 888Poker Club, which has rewards to suit all.
