Stretch Network to debut faster, streamlined Spin & Go tournaments

Stretch Network will introduce a series of changes to its Spin & Go tournaments on December 2, outlining what the company describes as a faster experience for both players and operators across its poker platforms. The updates, which include structural adjustments and new buy-in options, aim to deliver a more efficient format and increase long-term participation.

According to the company, the revised Spin & Go structure features a 20-big-blind starting stack, two-minute blind intervals and a Hold’em-only format. The goal is to reduce delays, create a clearer tournament flow and speed up gameplay. Stretch Network has also set rake at 7% and expanded the buy-in range to levels between €0.5 ($0.58) and €100 ($116).

Operators hosting the tournaments will see changes on their end as well. The company said the upgraded format is intended to simplify navigation and provide greater flexibility in how tournaments are offered, with an emphasis on tools that make platform management easier. The adjustments are also expected to strengthen liquidity by streamlining player movement through the system.

Stretch Network said the redesigned format is built to encourage higher retention, describing the shorter rounds and reduced complexity as a way to keep players more consistently engaged. The company noted that the improvements are structured to support operators in driving steady tournament activity through a combination of clearer mechanics and broader buy-in accessibility.
