| re: Milestone hands are back at PS poker The prize package for the 25 billion hand is simply insane. I'll be grinding a lot of ring games over the next few weeks, and I'll probably take advantage of that deposit bonus too. And this just a month after I withdrew 75% of my BR. Oh well, at least it gives me an excuse to push my multi-tabling past my current 8 table ceiling. |

| Yeah that video was classic. HMMMM $2 gamble to win $100k+ ... guess too rich an investment for their blood. lol Have to reference this link: Huge Pokerstars RELOAD Bonus Today through the 18th Found out its 20 base FPPs for every bonus reload $ ... so at 100nl I earn .33 base FPPs per hand, so looking at 15k hands to clear the $250 bonus. |

| PS 25billion hand milestone wow i didn't see this thread,But i was in one of the tables last night only had $40 on .50/1.00 so i went all in with A5 with 3 other all in 98,10 8,and 6 2,the board came 10 9 10 A 8 so the 10 8 won a 280pot plus the 1k bonus for winning the hand and the rest of us got $250 so not bad for a $40 investment.

however if the prize for winning the hand is $300 and you're sitting at a full 1c/2c table with the max buyin, you're still losing probably ~900bbs in equity by folding as opposed to shoving even if you have random crap cards (and that's assuming the rest of the table has the sense to just go arrin - obviously the more people that are stupid enough to fold the more equity you're missing out on). |

| I watched a milestone hand go on a heads-up table today. Yep, you guessed it. One of the two players left the table before the hand was dealt. Hand was cancelled, and the other player won the bonus without a challenge. Last edited by PokerVic : 14th February 2009 at 3:00 AM. |

| Hate to double-post, but what are the odds of some Cardschat math savant crunching the numbers and giving us a rough idea when the big 25 Billionth hand milestone is going to go? My completely off-the-top-of-my-head guess is Tuesday morning, at 8:25 AM ET. |

| I just timed how long 100,000 hands took. 100K took 196 seconds so 1 million should take roughly 1960 seconds. There are around 67 millions hand left; so 67 x 1960 = 131,320 seconds converted into hours is 36.5. So the 25 billionth hand should be played in roughly (very roughly) in 36 hours 30 mins. So here in the UK the 25 billionth hand should be played at around 6am Monday. Obviously as more (or less) players are online the time taken to play 100k hands will change, therefore my prediction is only a guess. Joe. |

| re: Milestone hands are back at PS poker This is a nice promotion. Yesterday I played, but had a limited bankroll and I refused to add money. I saw a few Milestone winners then I went to play on FT. I am sure they will be having something similar soon. X |
