PokerStars offers 'Jackpot Poker' for mobile

Featuring fast action, exciting graphics and lots of all-in opportunities, Jackpot Poker features unique three-handed, "winner-takes-all" poker tournaments in a new format that is made specifically for mobile devices and aimed at casual gamers.

Jackpot Poker features PokerStars' wildly popular Spin & Go tournaments that can turn a small buy-in tournament into a massive prize pool. The fast-form three-person tournament feature a jackpot element that determines the final prize pool after the players take their seats and before the first card is dealt. Players are guaranteed their minimum prize pool, but the spin of the wheel can multiply that prize up to 3,000 times the original value. Jackpot Poker is the only social poker game to offer this innovative tournament format to players.

These adrenaline-fuelled short burst games can often produce a tournament winner within 10 minutes of play and have revolutionized the world of online poker in the last year.

Jackpot Poker is now available in a new, free-to-play, social gaming form for everyone to play in the iOS and GooglePlay (Android) stores, as well as Facebook.

"Mobile gamers are going to love the fast-paced poker action that they can only get on the Jackpot Poker app. By bringing Spin & Go jackpot tournaments to mobile devices, PokerStars has captured the most exciting innovation in poker in recent years and made it available to everyone with an iOS or Android smartphone," said Lloyd Melnick, director of social gaming at PokerStars.

Poker is an easy to learn game of skill and strategy, and the Jackpot Poker app caters to players who are new to poker and features an in-game poker quiz designed to test player knowledge about basic strategy and a tutorial to help players get the most from the Jackpot Poker experience. Jackpot Poker's social media platform engages regular conversation with players who will be able to boost their play money bankrolls through daily rewards, in-app promotions and refer-a-friend bonuses.
