Pokerstars 10bn hand

BrokenArrows

How many tabes are you guys playing on stars

Ive only 4. My **** screen cant handle more

phantom_lord

when are they expecting the 10bn hand? is there much of a bonus?

BrokenArrows

in the next 30 minutes id say.

100k to the winner of the hand and 10k to the rest of the table

there are currently over 100k players on stars

edit better make that 10-15 minutes

shoutman

Does it matter what stakes you are playing?

ianmc38

do stakes matter?

phantom_lord

is there a limit on tables? I'm gonna go 20 table micro stakes or something,

BrokenArrows

Jesus Wept

10 minutes trying to find a seat on $1-2 down to 0.25-50, and failed. errrrr

BrokenArrows

lol. the closest table i got to the hand was 20,000 hands off

shoutman

No luck, stars was crawling, as PL said Stars must of easily made the money back from the bonus through the rake it was generating.

Is say most of the play was at the micro stakes tables cause everyone was just opening up loads of tables

phantom_lord

robinlacey

robinlacey

did they know it was the 10 billionth hand before it was over?

BrokenArrows

well they would have if they looked at the hand number in the corner of the table

shoutman

Yea there was five minutes waiting before the hand was dealt saying how it was the 10 billionth hand and all and two people still folded, idiots!!

shoutman

Rechargeable: I'm gonna move up to 0.25-0.50 I thinkz

those eyes confuse me...also above was semi-serious...:rolleyes:

also we didnt see what they had...

shoutman

The eyes are meant to be sarcastic! Ie. You are most certaintly not the wittiest person that I know.

How can you be serious! Everyone at the table just got 10k for nothing and then they should fold 72o for the sake of 8 dollars because they are always going to be behind preflop, bare in mind the winner of the hand gets 90k extra, the implied odds really are extraordinary, if you only had one card you would still call And we saw what two of them had, the winner had 45 sooooooooted and got a flush, she was shorstacked with the princely sum of 82cents, but as she won the main pot she got $100,000, the other individuals card we saw won the side pot worth about $6 with two pair, 47o or something. Either way your cards dont matter.l

I was playing SNGs when they announced the 10bn would be dealt in the next few minutes. Tried to get onto a cash table but they were all full or filling up too quickly.

having to explain your jokes isnt a good sign either lucas....
yeah well if the winner had a flush then it was a good fold. you cant argue with results. you cant argue with results.you cant argue with results. Aces would have been dogged, horrible spot to be in. OOP with a well-defined hand in a potentially 550,000BB hand. nightmare.
oh and (a la homer to marge) ----> I was being SARCASTIC! :rolleyes:

Hectorjelly

if we are being pedantic (and I am) there were no implied odds.

Bandara

such a pity someone didn't have Aces and get them cracked by some sicko hand

Never again would you get a more meaningful opportunity to type the auld "that's Pokah" in the chat box.

WhackaMole

I was playing a tournie at the time. Never even thought of mutli tabling a load of mini cash ones.

Damn!

Had I been on the table...AI with 73o

I'd say the two folders are seriously upset at the mo too. ugh!!
