February’s here – the month where your “new year, new me” plan quietly gets folded up and shoved into a drawer next to expired vitamins and that one gym membership you swear is still “an investment.” Love that for us.

Anyway, while resolutions are busy evaporating, the Platipus Network Tournament is still showing up doing what it promised: giving €25,000 away to players. Hallelujah.

It’s a five-stage promo built for people who enjoy a little leaderboard chaos with their spins. Stage 2 runs from 5 – 7 February and comes with prizes for 150 of you.

Stage 1 just wrapped, and it turns out we can commit to something – as long as it involves cash. Obviously. Anyway, Stage 2 is next. Same energy, new round. Don’t miss it!

The Five-Stage Roadmap

This tournament isn’t a one-and-done weekend. It’s a five-stage series running across 2026, with a €125,000 total prize pool – and €25,000 up for grabs in each stage, so every round gives you another crack at some of it.

Here’s the schedule:

• Stage 1: 29 – 31 January
• Stage 2: 5 – 7 February
• Stage 3: 30 April – 2 May
• Stage 4: 4 – 6 June
• Stage 5: 17 – 19 September

Stage 1 did exactly what a good opener should: got people playing and got people winning. But the main event right now is Stage 2 – the next tournament with another €25,000 on the table. I’ll break down how things work and what you need to do to get on the leaderboard.

Scoreboard Season: Stage 2 Edition

This tournament is a straight-up leaderboard race: your real-money spins (bonus money doesn’t count) translate into points, and points translate into rank.

To take part, just play the participating games during the tournament window with a min bet of €0.20 per spin (or currency equivalent). Your score is built from wins and multipliers, which get converted into points and stacked onto the leaderboard as you play.

Here’s how: Every 2x multiplier awards 1 point, every €1 win awards 2 points.

Prize-wise, €25,000 is paid out across 150 places – so it’s not just a top-three victory lap. The highest rankers get the main prizes (hello €5,000 for first, €3,000 for second and €1,500 for third), but even if you’re not built for podium life, there are still payouts stretching all the way down to 150th.

What to Spin for Points

Stage 2 runs on five Platipus slots, and the smartest move is simple: play what you actually enjoy, because you’ll be spending quality time together.

The lineup is Wild Spin slot, Wild Spin Deluxe slot, Wild Crowns slot, 7 & Hot Fruits slot, and Pirate’s Legacy slot – a mix of classic-feeling, high-energy reels with enough bite to keep the leaderboard moving.

No matter which games you choose to play, the mission remains the same: play during the Stage 2 window, and let the games do what they do best – surprise you.

Go Get Paid

Stage 2 of the Platipus Network Tournament lands at BitStarz from 5 February, 00:01 UTC, to 7 February, 23:59 UTC, with €25,000 on the line and 150 prizes up for grabs.

Stage 1 already proved this series has teeth – now the leaderboard resets and the stage opens. If you’re going to commit to anything in February, let it be something that can actually pay you.

No overthinking, no waiting – just a short window, real momentum, and the chance for some extra cash in your pocket. Show up, spin, climb, repeat.
