I played some spins in Pokerstars yesterday and i did not achieve anything remarkable. At the Spin & Go games i got into about 7 of $2 and all prizes were $4. $ 14 evaporated. At the betting i had a terrible luck and only one match took me out for 1200 dollars. It's very hard for me to win something nice.

As we see with the exclusive association of UFC with Pokerstars, little by little it increases its participation in other sports and expands as an operator of sports betting. As we can see, the intention of long-term pokerstars is to enter the US market.
We see that being an exclusive poker operator is no longer the most profitable model, and little by little it becomes a casino and betting center, this is, in my opinion, very bad for the future of poker.

Big fan of UFC from the start, this team up just makes sense,tho i think they could have done much more with it. I mean how hard is to think of several ways to cross promote etc
