PokerStarsadded a $100 buy-in Spin & Go to its game offerings on July 30 and just 10 days later two players have already hit the big $300,000 prize.

The maximum multiplier landed on separate tables populated by ‘flesske’ and ‘Lev729,’ who both managed to outplay their opponents and nail the huge score after buying in for $100. While the victors' PokerStars accounts were credited with $300K for winning their respective Spin & Go games, another commonality between the two is that both hail from Hungary.

PokerStars does make a habit of spreading riches all over the globe, and that was the case in the $100 buy-in Spin & Gos as the players who finished in 2nd and 3rd place got a nice bankroll boost as well. Runner-up prizes of $30,000 went to Russia, Israel, Estonia and Ireland, as ‘AlexRAVXXX,'‘wallaks,’ ‘barrakuuda4’ and ‘ian2104’ played their best, respectively, but bowed to the excellence of the Hungarian players.

Spin & Go remains a popular game at PokerStars, more so now that the $100 stake level has been added. Previously, buy-ins were set at $1, $3, $7, $15, $30, and $60 before Amaya listened to player requests and added a seventh level at a nice, round $100 entry fee.

Also nice and round is that $300,000 prize, as ‘Lev729’ and ‘flesske’ can certainly confirm. Who will be the next $300K winner at PokerStars $100 buy-in Spin & Go? Might it be you?
