Strategy
Strategy in this game is all about bet selection. I offer the following advice:
- Don't let the game round you down. A safe way to avoid this is to always bet in increments of 10¢.
- Confine yourself to bets that return 97.5%, which is as good as it gets in this game.

Tetris® combines with Spin & Go tournaments at PokerStars in a fun promotion that sees $1.5 million paid out between February 15 and March 28.
Head to the Spin & Go lobby in the PokerStars client and you’ll see there are Tetris® Spin & Go games with buy-ins of $0.25, $1, $2, $5, $10, $25, $50, $100, $250, and $500. They all play out the exact same way as a traditional Spin & Go, meaning they’re three-handed hyper-turbo tournaments where the prize pool is randomly determined before the first hand is dealt.
It’s still possible to win up to $1 million in some of these game, but there are a few notable differences.
First, the virtual felt is made up of Tetris® blocks, which actually looks pretty cool. Also, the dealer button is now a Tetris® block too, and other blocks fall down the screen.
The Tetris® part of the promotion comes in the form of leaderboards. There’s a separate leaderboard for each Tetris® Spin & Go buy-in level, so 10 in total. You need to opt-in and then fire up some Tetris® Spin & Go tournaments.
Play your tournaments as you would ordinarily, but do so knowing the aim of the game is to clear lines, just like in Tetris®. The number of lines you clear depends on your Spin & Go multiplier and your finishing position in the tournament.
Your level increases each time you clear five lines. This results in you earning even more points so you can climb up your leaderboard faster.
How Many Lines Do I Clear?
1st | 2nd | 3rd | |
2x | 4 | 3 | 2 |
3x | 3 | 2 | 1 |
Over 3x | 2 | 1 | 1 |
As you can see from the table above, finishing in 1st place in a Tetris® Spin & Go that has a 2x multiplier clears four lines. Just playing a tournament earns you points.
How Do You Earn Points?
The number of leaderboard points you earn is based on your finishing position and your current level. You start off earning 40 points for clearing one line when you’re at Level 0, but this increases to 840 points if you manage to climb to Level 20, which is the highest level you can achieve.
It is possible to earn up to 25,200 points per Tetris® Spin & Go tournament, as you can see in this table.
Level | Points for 1 Line | Points for 2 Lines | Points for 3 Lines | Points four 4 Lines |
---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 40 | 100 | 300 | 1,200 |
1 | 80 | 200 | 600 | 2,400 |
2 | 120 | 300 | 900 | 3,600 |
3 | 160 | 400 | 1,200 | 4,800 |
n | =40*(n+1) | =100*(n+1) | =300*(n+1) | =1,200*(n+1) |
20 | 840 | 2,100 | 6,300 | 25,200 |
Tetris® Spin & Go Payout Table
The leaderboards payout $33,000 every day throughout the promotion making for a combined total of $1,500,000 just for playing Tetris® Spin & Go tournaments.
The $0.25, $1, $2, and $5 leaderboard payout the top 100 points earners, so you have a decent chance of walking away with a cash prize. The prizes don’t have any restrictions on them meaning you’re free to do with them as you wish.
$0.25 | $1 | $2 | $5 | $10 | $25 | $50 | $100 | $250 | $500 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | $50 | $150 | $250 | $400 | $500 | $500 | $750 | $1,000 | $1,500 | $3,000 |
2 | $40 | $100 | $200 | $300 | $400 | $400 | $600 | $800 | $1,000 | |
3 | $30 | $75 | $150 | $250 | $350 | $350 | $500 | $600 | $750 | |
4 | $20 | $50 | $100 | $200 | $300 | $300 | $400 | $500 | $500 | |
5 | $15 | $25 | $50 | $150 | $250 | $250 | $300 | $400 | $500 | |
6-10 | $10 | $20 | $40 | $100 | $150 | $150 | $150 | $200 | ||
11-20 | $5 | $10 | $20 | $50 | $100 | $100 | $100 | $100 | ||
21-50 | $5 | $5 | $10 | $25 | $50 | $50 | ||||
51-100 | $5 | $5 | $5 | $10 |
The Tetris® Playing Field – Avoid Hitting Game Over
There’s an extra element to this promotion that you have to be aware of at all times. PokerStars calls it the Playing Field.
Just like in a game of Tetris® where it is Game Over when the blocks reach the top of the screen, it can be game over for you if you go on a streak of out of the money finishes!
Finishing in first place either improves your Playing Field status or makes zero change to it. Finish in second place, however, and your Playing Field status either stays the same or actually worsens, which is also the case when you finish in third place.
Your table, or playing field, is green in color when your Playing Field is in a good state. It turns amber when it is worsening and turns red when you’re in big trouble. Failing to win when your playing field is red could see you reach Game Over which means you cannot earn any more leaderboard points until the next day!
The changes to your playing field status depend on your current level.
1st place | 2nd place | 3rd place | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Level | Improve | No Change | No Chance | Worsen | No Change | Worsen |
0-1 | 100% | 0% | 100% | 0% | 100% | 0% |
2-5 | 80% | 20% | 80% | 20% | 50% | 50% |
6-9 | 60% | 40% | 60% | 40% | 40% | 60% |
10-13 | 40% | 60% | 40% | 60% | 30% | 70% |
14-17 | 20% | 80% | 20% | 80% | 200% | 80% |
18-20 | 20% | 80% | 20% | 80% | 10% | 90% |
