GGPoker��s Spin & Gold Twist: Challenges
GGPoker always likes to put its own twist on products it launches to make them unique to the site and Spin & Gold are no different.
Players can earn extra cashback on their Spin & Gold play by completing special challenges.
These challenges are known as mining gold. You start the challenge with a simple mouse click and are greeted with a screen asking if you are going to play for 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 5 hours, or 8 hours. Another screen loads where you can choose from one of six challenges, each increasing in difficulty in relation to the number of Spin & Gold tournaments needed to mine gold.
The challenge we saw challenged players to mine between 700 and 27,000 gold for cash rewards ranging from $1.60 up to $120.
Gold is earned at different rates depending on the Spin & Gold tournament��s buy-in and your finishing position, with a maximum of 750 gold possible from one tournament.
| Buy-in | 1st place | 2nd place | 3rd place |
|---|---|---|---|
| $50 | 750 Gold | 500 Gold | 250 Gold |
| $20 | 300 Gold | 200 Gold | 100 Gold |
| $5 | 75 Gold | 50 Gold | 25 Gold |
| $1 | 15 Gold | 10 Gold | 5 Gold |
Spin & Gold Are Perfect For Long and Short Sessions
While the Spin & Gold Challenges are great for those players wanting to play a longer session, the hyper-turbo blind structure lends itself to players short of time.
Fire one or two up during the scheduled breaks of the GG Masters, a tournament that will see someone walk away with a GG sponsorship package worth up to $500,000.
We also expect Spin & Gold to become available on GGPoker��s mobile client, meaning you can play for a share of $600,000 wherever you have a WiFi or mobile internet signal.
