I have just been fortunate enough to be dealt into a milestone hand at stars
I was only playing 4NL and made $60+ for playing in the hand
I was 6 tabling at the time and I must admit I wasn;t aware of the promotion and didnt read the "rules for the hand" that came in the chat box
Anyway the 4 stacks ahead of me went all in so I followed suit asuming that they understood the promotion so there must be some advantage to it
anyone know whether this was the right thing to do?

Always shove milestone hands in micro's...you're going to get paid way more than you're risking no matter what. You could always luck out and win the hand and win tons more.

Congrats ! Maybe i will try it too by multitabling in NL10 or something. But with multitabling i increase the chance that i am involved in a milestone hand, but i decrease the chance that i see it in the chat (because of too many tables) ?!

A big yellow transparent window will apear in the middle and the table is bloked for like a minute. You will se it.

You get $50 per VPP earned in your last 50 hands played at that table and the milestone hand itself counts so it's gonna be profitable to get it all in at any stake. Never managed to hit a milestone hand but I rarely play cash.

I got one on a 16nl table a while back. I'd only played a few hands on that table so hardly earned any VPPs towards it, and I didn't win the hand, but still got like $170! So yeah, definitely SHOVE!
