Not that likely really since he's played very few games (MTT, SNG, SPins)Something incredible. Lucky guy. But it's quite possible that he spent hundreds of thousands on the game before this win. Nevertheless, winners are not criticised
But maybe he's played a lot of cash games. I know many regulars I see on cash tables don't play in many MTTs.

Well done to him, living the dream!
Just having a look, apparently these big jackpot games are played with a much slower level increase in blinds compared to normal. It goes up every 5 minutes so they'd have only been on level 4 after 19 minutes which is 30/60.
Mike = 300 chips, posts SB, 270
OG = 1200 chips, posts BB, 1140
90 chips in the middle.
Who knows what happened in the hand? Would have thought Mike would be all in preflop there with 4.5 bigs left but what do I know, I'm perhaps the world's worst spin and go player.
Maybe he called pre and jammed after being checked to with his gutshot and high card Ace? Kind of a weird call from OG if he did. Or did OG bluff lead to put him under pressure despite missing the flop? Perhaps there was even some sort of min. raise pre from Mike?

Not in any way suspicious at all...
Congratulations to the winner (if not syphoned back into the coffers in attempt to stop the ship sinking or whatever is going on there) and the two runners up too!
It'd suck missing out on $1,000,000 in a three-handed game but can't grumble too much about turning $5 into $80k or $120k, unless gypped of course!
It'd be nice to believe that there isn't any untoward goings on in our capitalist world but as one of my favourite pieces of writing says:- "Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery."
Wonder what the time frame between one jackpot game and the next is with those Spin n' go's...
Not played on Stars in agesssssss myself and very unlikely to be returning for B.I. games there any time soon, they made their bed as far as I'm concerned, so they can sleep in it!

If this is the normal game with 3 players, the timer may go up only every 5 minutes but they also start you out with only 500 chips, too.Well done to him, living the dream!

Boy this was a game that I would not have minded placing 2nd or 3rd!
