PokerStars has launched a new game called Spingo, rolling it out with a giveaway campaign that puts three of the platform's most recognizable ambassadors head to head. Nick Walsh, Adam McKola, and Rory Jennings are the featured faces of the promotion, with PokerStars asking players to pick who they think will win.
Spingo has arrived and there are free tickets up for grabs. Who is favourite to win between Nick Walsh, Adam McKola, and Rory Jennings?

The launch follows PokerStars' strategy of using its ambassador roster to drive engagement with new products. All three creators have large followings - Jennings and McKola from football content crossover, Walsh from poker streaming - and each brings a different audience demographic to the promotion.
Free tickets are available through a social media giveaway format, requiring players to reply with their Stars ID and a hashtag. The Irish Open is also running concurrently on PokerStars, with a separate giveaway featuring Benjamin 'Spraggy' Spragg asking who has the best chance of cracking pocket aces.
The ambassador-driven launch model has become standard across major poker rooms in 2026. GGPoker, PartyPoker, and WPT Global all use similar strategies, but PokerStars' UK creator squad - built around football and poker crossover personalities - gives them a unique angle in the European market.
