HIT ME THE 1 BILLIONTH HAND!
what do you get if you hit the billionith hand?
5k for everyone dealt 50k for winner
i just saw it.. 1 person was sitting out, 3 people folded preflop
(goes on to show you people this stupid exist)
75o takes it home
LOL guy that was sitting out asks if he gets 5k, lee jones says yes you do, then goes "SORRY PHIL (his alias), my mistake, you weren't dealt in"
LOL that guy must be so annoyed!
curious... did they know how close they were to the billionith hand? Because if I knew that they were only a few hundred of the billionith hand, man I woildnt have sat out on any hand.
Did they have something like a counting thing at pokerstars which said how close they were to the money hand?
It shows what hand you're on in the corner of the screen, so everyone should have known what was going on. They were flashing system messages before it happened, too. I was playing the .05/.10 tables and when it got down to 999,990,000 we all were folding every hand to increase our odds. Even doing that, we were about 1500:1 to hit it. (I was on 2 tables, so I guess I was about 750:1)
Here's the hand history with all the observer chat removed.
(they paused the table while Lee Jones congratulated everyone, so that's what the confusion was about)

LOL that's just awesome.
yea i think the implied odds on 50k are there :)

That woulda been one unfortunate time to get rockets cracked.

Some people are dumb dumb dumb. I wonder if these are the same folks that would call a big bet with only 1.5 bets in the pot because they have 3rd pair.
not only that but they had 5k guaranteed already so even if the lost the hand they would still be up 4990!!!! OMG can people be dumb, what was he thinking....hmmm i guess my Q2 has no chance so ill fold and save my 6 bucks..

I watched that hand, it was funny watching the people fold.
Dumbasses.
This is my first post. I really have improved my game and expanded it because of you guys -- a heartfelt thank you.Quote:

I was at one of the earlier, smaller prize tables. I had five dime games open, either folding or all-in-ing as fast as I could, and I folded my hand at a prize winning hand. DOH! :oops: I had 'skinned' my PS tables and could barely read the hand number (FTR - thanks again, guys!)
Let me assure you, yes, my strategy was to all-in if I caught the '0000000' hand. I screwed up beacuse of my pace and not being able to read the hand # quickly, but the $500 was very nice. 8-) And know that the 'idiots' will still get to enjoy their $5000 even though they left the table. They merely had to be dealt into the hand to earn the prize.
Also, very funny, I made about $40 at the dime tables with my quick fold / all-in method. Some fool would always want to play his K9 at the dime table, and some smart guy, playing for the '...0000' hand would all-in him to get him to fold. K9's frustration would put him on tilt, and when I caught AA, KK, QQ, JJ and all-in'd, K9'd call, and I'd make some cash. There was a K9 at every table throughout the day. Didn't lose once. Funny.
Thanks again, and please ease up on us fools. :roll:

ouch and would you have won if you called the AI?

I didn't have the heart to go back and check if I had the winning hand.
