Online poker has two new millionaires, compliments of PokerStars and their $5 Spin & Go promotion.
The weekend produced two $1 million jackpot winners, one hailing from the Czech Republic and the other from Canada, who joined a Russian player that claimed the first million-dollar prize last Monday. For those keeping score, that’s $3 million paid out to winners in the course of a week! And $600,000 to the losers!
The $1 million prize on a $5 buy-in promo began in December, but the jackpot never hit before 2015 arrived. The new year has crowned three winners with almost two weeks left to go in the promotion.
