Noble poker $100 million

Is anyone on site going to have a crack at this? - $100 Million! Apparently, all you have to do is reach final table in tournament (the entry fee if you don't qualify through satellite is $10,000!), and then hit a Royal Flush in Spades (so tough luck if you get it in Diamonds, hearts or clubs) within the first 260 hands of the final table. That seems easy enough!

There's one proviso - if you want the $100 Million, it's paid $1Million a year for 50 years, with the remaining $50 million paid in the 51st year - otherwise if you want it in one go, it's $25 Million.

Who do they think they are kidding!!!!!!! Who the hell would pay $10,000 for a Noble game? - on average the site crashes 10 times an hour!

We had a royal flush in spades last night at our regular live game. His first one ever and the guy is playing poker over 30 years. (yes he used both hole cards)

Come on guys, odds of a royal flush in spades please and even better... odds of a royal flush in spades on the final table of a huge tournament.

It's great marketing once again by Noble... a huge number of people will see $100 million and instantly flock to the qualifier tournaments.

They're getting good at this... the Maui related promos were great too.

No, Noble Poker just cant be trusted. I've found out the hard way - disconnected for final half hour whilst on final table of tourney with $800 1st prize. A big-money event? They're not up to it (they're on the same ipoker network as Titan - I dont have to tell you about Titan do I?!).

"within the first 260 hands of the final table".

They're being a bit canny with this one - otherwise the final 2 could go back and forth until one of them hit a flush in spades - that would take years though!!!

AND more than likely you have to use both hole cards AND the hand has to come to showdown ?

Probably, but who is liable to pay out the monster sum - Noble Poker. Who has control over the "random" card generator - Noble Poker. Surely some computer whizz could add a line of code blocking Royal flush (in spades!) for those 260 hands.

Atleast its not only that specifc hands that pays

Also Royal in another suit will pay 1 million i think. Not much compared i know. And you get payed down to 4x10

And nope the final table isnt live (to my knowledge)

Who would insure sometthing in a case like that?
I also agree with Nick, this is one hell of a promotional idea.
