FINAL: Walsh defeats McKola and Texas Tommo

It’s all over!

Nick Walsh was victorious over Adam McKola and Texas Tommo in the final, winning a $500 Spin & Go ticket. Before he used it, he offered McKola and Tommo 10% of his winnings, which they naturally accepted.

Walsh then spun a $1,500 multiplier and quickly got to work, managing to double with pocket kings against ace-king in the first hand of the game!

He then knocked out the other opponent with ace-ten against pocket eights, and banked the lot.

Thanks for watching the Spin & Go Showdown. Until next time!

ABOUT THE SPIN & GO SHOWDOWN

The Spin & Go Showdown is back with three PokerStars Ambassadors and three special guests battling it out in rapid-fire rounds live on stream.

For the next month, you can tune in to live streams on the PokerStars Twitch channel and even take part yourself with three Centroll tournaments awarding $1,000 in Spin & Go tickets.

Nick Walsh, Rory Jennings, and Adam McKola are repping the red spade, while Ade Oladipo (DAZN presenter, podcaster & content creator), Texas Tommo (SAG coach & streamer), and Tim Hampus (casino streamer) make up the rest of the Showdown field.

They’ll go head-to-head, playing (and winning) as many Spins per stream as they can. At the end, the best-scoring Ambassador and two best-performing guests will face off in a Home Game Final to win a $500 SAG ticket, to be played on stream after the final for a shot at the multiplier prize.

Dates: Nov 4 – Dec 4 (each match is 2 hours)

HOW IT WORKS

Each stream will consist of two phases. In Phase 1, a PokerStars Ambassador and a guest will play Spin & Gos independently for 90 minutes straight. No breaks. No victory laps. This is merely the warm-up.

For each 2x or 3x multiplier Spin they win, they earn 1 point. If it’s a 4x or bigger, they spin the wheel to determine their prize. It could land on 2 points, 3 points, 5 points, OR award a point to their opponent. Doh.

Then comes Phase 2: a 30-minute double-points round. And this is where you can get involved at home.

Win Multipliers. Earn Points. Dominate.

Win a 2x or 3x multiplier, and you’ll get 2 points. Win a 4x or higher, and you’ll spin again for one of the following:

  • +3 points
  • +4 points
  • +6 points (only if you win your next game)
  • +2 points to the player the viewers vote for – chat decides!

The aim is simple: win the most Spins, earn the most points, and beat the other guy — obviously.

HOW YOU CAN WIN

Three Centroll tournaments will running throughout the Spin & Go Showdown, allowing PokerStars players at home to get involved in the action.

Each Centroll has $1,000 in Spin & Go tickets up for grabs — and seeing as the Spin & Go Championship Live Paris is coming up with qualifying leader boards running right now, there’s never been a better time to start playing Spins

Centroll Dates: Nov 11, Nov 19, Nov 25, 18:30 UK time
