Stake Poker has launched JAQKpot!, a new 3-Max Hyper-Turbo Sit & Go format available on stake.us and stake.com. The game features random multipliers up to 20,000x, four buy-in levels, multi-tabling, and maximum prize opportunities reaching up to $/SC1,000,000.
Stake Poker has officially entered one of the most popular formats in online poker with the launch of its new product, JAQKpot!. The new offering brings lottery-style, fast-paced action to the platform's player base across multiple regions.
The rollout follows a staggered release schedule. The format first became available to players on stake.us on June 29, followed by its launch on stake.com on July 1.
How the Format Works
JAQKpot! is structured as a 3-Max Hyper-Turbo Sit & Go tournament. In this format, the total prize pool is randomly determined before the first card is dealt, allowing players the opportunity to compete for significantly increased prize pools.
The gameplay dynamics and payout structures shift depending on the randomly selected multiplier:
- Lower Multipliers (2x, 3x, and 5x): These games operate on a strict winner-take-all basis, delivering classic hyper-turbo action where only the first-place finisher walks away with the prize.
- Higher Multipliers (10x and above): From the 10x multiplier upward, the prize pool is distributed among all three participants, ensuring that every player at the table secures a profit.
For players looking to increase their volume, Stake Poker allows individuals to play up to four JAQKpot! tables simultaneously.
The format features four distinct buy-in levels, each offering a maximum prize pool multiplier of 20,000x the initial stake. The buy-in tiers and their corresponding maximum payouts are structured as follows:
- $/SC0.50 Buy-In: Offers a maximum prize of up to $/SC10,000.
- $/SC2 Buy-In: Offers a maximum prize of up to $/SC40,000.
- $/SC10 Buy-In: Offers a maximum prize of up to $/SC200,000.
- $/SC50 Buy-In: Offers a maximum prize of up to $/SC1,000,000.
The frequency of each multiplier and the exact distribution of prizes among the three positions are calculated based on a probability cycle of 10,000,000 games. The complete breakdown of multipliers, payouts, and frequencies is detailed below:
