Bringing new game concepts to the online poker market, the Microgaming Poker Network (MPN) today has unveiled its new ‘Fish Party Sit &Go’ (title Fish Party SNGs) format a unique take on the popular Jackpot Sit & Go poker tournaments.
Fish Party SNGs are fast-paced, three-player tournaments. At the beginning of each game, the slot reels, based on Microgaming’s popular Fish Party online slot, spin. The tournament prize pool is decided by the outcome of that spin, with winning reel combinations delivering big prizes.
Unlike other varieties of Jackpot SNGs, Fish Party SNGs have a progressive jackpot function which increases with every game played, increasing poker cash prizes on the MPN network.
“I truly believe we have created the best version of the Jackpot Sit & Go concept,” commented Alex Scott, Head of Poker at Microgaming.
“The progressive jackpot enables us to offer bigger prizes than any other provider at a smaller cost to the player, and the link with a popular established slot gives poker rooms amazing opportunities for cross-sell. But above all, I believe we have created the most thrilling version of the game the industry has seen – and this is all down to Microgaming’s expertise in creating the most exciting slot games in the industry. Today is a big day for the MPN; we are incredibly excited that Fish Party SNGs are now live.”
Fish Party SNGs will be made available throughout the MPN network, which services the poker rooms of bookmakers’; Stan James, 188Bet, Betsson, Betway and BetVictor.
