CONCEPT+

Twister Poker offers players jackpot prizepools of immense proportions for buy-ins as low as $1. The games are fast, adrenaline-racing and packed with excitement as players compete for a potentially huge prize.

Twisters are three handed Turbo Sit n Go's, which can be played simultaneously in up to six tournaments. The winner is rewarded with a random jackpot prize that can reach thousands of Dollars.

    Here is a breakdown of how much you can win for such small buy ins:
    $1 to win up to $1,000
    $2 to win up to $2,000
    $5 to win up to $5,000
    $10 to win up to $10,000

Would really love your feedback on this game guys.

It brings a fun element into the game and a bit of a sweat when the wheel is spinning.

We've had a lot of positive feedback elsewhere.

Cheers.

Had a few goes...it's a good concept...would quite like to see a bigger starting stack. 

Liked it.

I just feel it's a bit of a farce. I can't say I've played more than 30 so far to judge properly but the big majority I have played have been for the lowest amount on the wheel which is basically raking 1/3 of the winner's winnings and the others have been the next prize up, so when playing the $10 for example the prize has been $40 or 3 people to compete for; I have yet to experience playing for any prize bigger than this. I'm not sure I want to invest any more to find out for how long this will be the case.

I like the concept of a changing prizepool like when pokerstars did their 'golden sit & go's' A table turning gold on pokerstars was also rare but I felt that promotion was more honest in it's approach in a Willa Wonka's golden ticket kind of way where you assume the rarity of finding one. But the wheel on twister showing equal segments with each prize as if each segment has an equal chance of hitting is quite tilting.

Played a quick 5 @ $1 BI cos thats how I roll

One was $4 prize others $2. I imagine thats the default for 99% plus of games otherwise ipoker would go bust. Just need to learn not to run into AA with smaller pairs

[Rexas]

This is a very interesting concept, might have a look at it. Honestly, given all the issues Ipoker have with connections etc, I'm not confident enough in them to want to grind anything on this site full time, or play any cash games for a significant amount of money, but these things look short enough and fun enough to go for.

Also, tighty, did you beat the german guy in the op?

[leethefish]

played loads of these twisters .....really like them

biggest prize ive seen is $60 @ $ 10
and $30  @ $5

Flicked it in tonight, new concept was fun waiting for the wheel, but small stack starting is a minus

[welsh1980]

I have played so so many of these..
I have seen 200 dollars at $10 game.
Can you tell me if the $10 dollar games put money into the smaller games ?
And it would be nice to see how much money is in the pot ( being generated for the jackpot pay out )

I have to say, I was a bit skeptical about this idea, but I've just played some and I'm wet for it now.  Love the short starting stack, love the structure, love the idea.  This game is so far up my street.  Proper high variance punting.  Could maybe do with a couple of higher buy ins, but apart from that I have literally nothing to complain about.

Oh wait, not seen any mention of the rake anywhere?

The prize distribution is given elsewhere, but works out at about 7% rake.

You have a 1/20,000 chance of playing for $10k for your $10, and 15,186/20,000 of playing for $20.01.

The rest are

$2k: 1 in 20,000
$1k: 2 in 20,000
$500: 5 in 20,000
$200: 20 in 20,000
$100: 160 in 20,000
$60: 1,600 in 20,000
$40: 3,025 in 20,000

These aren't my thing, but the rake isn't out of line. 

Imagine getting a $10k game and losing though.  I'd imagine, there'd be the biggest ever 50 pence collection on Blonde.
