Since i am a little bit over in my play for the promotion. This morning i decided to try a session of Spin&Go i won the two first one for $2.00 each and later won one $4.00 and completed the seven for a profit of $1.00 and another tickets.
I now have 17 tickets and a $10.00 which is not to bad.

callie you did very good i guess. Besides the 20$ there is no doubt that with the amount fo tickets you got you will cash in at least one of them so you will have the chance to increase even more your bankroll from this promotion. Good luck with the tickets, all of you

These Spin & go are really hard to play you have to be very lucky. I have now six tickets from them and the cost was not to bad. I know have 19 tickets and a $10.00 plus the $11.00 won in the freeroll i am a little bit over. I got another J J last night one raised i shoved and they all fold and then i quit playing with a cost of $.008.

I've done the OLD Ronaldo and got a ticket for each piece of pie. I am three short of Negreanu and have a ticket for each piece of pie. I have done 6...... Well, 6 out of the first 7 for the baby Ronaldo and am at the point where I hate spin and goes.

i lose a ton of hard earned bankroll on these however im stuck on them at times when I start winning.
The structure is what creates the action, not the random number generator...
You start with only 25 big blinds, and after the first blind raise, your starting stack is only 16 BBs. At this point, being agressive is very important because your stack will go down very fast if you don't play hands. I pretty much raise any 2 on the button, especially when the blinds get to 20/40. And it's probably the most optimal way to play this type of structure, especially since It's winn-er takes all. Being passive and waiting for big hands won't help you. You have to gamble and get lucky. That generates a lot of rake for stars because games only last like 5-7 minutes average.
so you will have the chance to increase even more your
