A Pennsylvania online poker player turned a $50 Spin-and-Go entry into $250,000 on PokerStars exclusively on FanDuel. It was the biggest payout the product has recorded since its April launch in Michigan, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

The win came in a three-handed, winner-take-all Spin-and-Go with randomly selected multipliers ranging from 2x to 10,000x the buy-in. The $50 seat worked out to 5,000 buy-ins, and the player still had to beat two randomly chosen opponents to take the full prize. The winner was identified as Jesuz1zBlac in some reports and Jesuz1sBlac in another.

The reporting did not agree on the date of the jackpot. PokerNews put it on July 16, while Casino.us said it happened on June 16.

The April 1 launch announcement said PokerStars exclusively on FanDuel would offer bigger player pools, a dedicated poker app and desktop site, and two $500,000 guaranteed Sunday Million tournaments for players in Michigan, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The launch release said the arrangement combined PokerStars’ poker experience with FanDuel’s scale and reach.

The $1 million Spin-and-Go jackpot at the $5 level remains unclaimed. Pokerfuse said it was introduced ahead of the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico, and that a lucky player could still land a 200,000x payout. Casino.us also said Pennsylvania’s share of the $250,000 win was $7,500 and the federal share was $60,000.
