One lucky 888poker player had a super special week when they hit a $70,000 payout in our BLAST Sit & Go! Blast Jackpot games are one of the hottest tickets on 888poker, with players able to win up to 10,000 times their buy-in.

Each of the three SNG players bought in for only $10 apiece when they hit the $100K jackpot prize pool!

The fortunate player “Bellyfuff” had only been playing on the 888poker platform for four days when they won the massive prize on 24 August.

Each of the three SNG players bought in for only $10 apiece when they hit the $100K jackpot prize pool!

Second-place player “belacroatia1” received a whopping $20K payout.

Our third-place player “Brisels” walked away with a not-too-shabby $10K.

It was undoubtedly a day of celebrations for these three charmed 888poker players!

In addition to this big win, 888poker players bagged over $400,000 altogether in top ten BLAST wins during the month of August. With just shy of $500 in total buy-ins, this past month will undoubtedly be one for the books!

Past Blast SNG winners in 2021 have hit the $1,000,000 jackpot with players netting $700K for first, $200K for second and $100K for third place.

Imagine, the next massive winner could be you!

How to Get in on BLAST Jackpot Action

BLAST Jackpot games are 3-handed tournaments where the prize pool is randomly set.

  1. Each BLAST game kicks off with a random draw to select the prize pool.
  2. Players get a starting stack of 1,500 chips, regardless of the buy-in.
  3. The blind structure and prize pool distribution of each BLAST Jackpot game are determined according to the multiplier.

After a specific amount of time, all three players go all-in every hand until only the winner is left standing.
