In the world of online poker, few games can match the excitement of 888poker Blast Jackpot Sit and Go (SNG) tournaments.

These fast-paced contests offer players the chance to win up to 10,000x their buy-in! And, on a fateful August 8, three daring players took the plunge into a $50 buy-in game, only to be greeted by a jaw-dropping surprise: a colossal prize pool of $500,000!

The outcome was a dream come true for the participants, as they hit the jackpot with the maximum multiplier for their stake.

The payouts were nothing short of astonishing, with $350,000, $100,000, and $50,000 going to the winner, runner-up and third-place player.

It was a relatively new 888poker player who emerged triumphant. Hailing from Canada, the player known as "Pelaps" had only registered on the 888poker site five months prior. Romania's ��valyspk04�� bagged the final six-figure prize while Hungarian ��vicuska12344�� saw their bankroll boosted exponentially despite being the first player to hit the wrong side of the virtual rail.

Big BLAST Poker Winners

A lucky few players have recently won big while playing BLAST poker. Last December on 888poker Ontario, "Starplayer50" pocketed $140,000 after they and two others were competing for the lion's share of a $200K jackpot prize pool. The runner-up and third-place finisher also bagged themselves $40,000 and $20,000 respectively.

In 2021, a trio of players hit the $1,000,000 jackpot, and what is even more impressive is that the jackpot was triggered from a $1 BLAST game. "Adria74" was the player who prevailed and collected the $700,000 allocated to the winner while second-place earned $200,000. Third-place also had a six-figure payout, with $100,000 being awarded to them.
