The popularity of PokerStars Spin & Go games has led to the introduction of a new $100 buy-in and Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino lose dealer court case.

Two little bite marks of poker news to catch up on.

The first comes from the land of the largest online poker room in the world. Winamax may have created the idea of the lottery style sit-and-go format, but it’s PokerStars who have taken the games Supernova.

Over 7.3 million Spin & Go games were played in the first 10-days when the games were unveiled to the general public for the first time in Oct 2014. In those virginal days the only buy-ins on offer were $1, $3, $7, $15 and $30. That was later extended to $60, and that ceiling was been lifted to $100 late last week.
