Anyone know when will this promotion be on again, its at around 67.5 billion at the moment, i presume the next time the promotion will be on is the 70th billion hand?

i just heard an ad on the telly they deal 1.8 million hands an hour, now the maths are just way too much for me to think about, anyone know will this take weeks, months or years????

Play poker and this math is too much?

2.5B/1.8M = ~1389 hours / 24 = ~58 days / 7 = ~8.3 weeks / 4 = ~2 months

I often use math when playing.

An example:

"The tourney takes a break in 7 minutes and is on break for 5, I need to pee and want to make a sandwich, grab a beer and check my work schedule for this weekend. It will take me 1 1/2 minutes to open the schedule and read it, and 3 minutes to make a sandwich, the beer is done while the bread is toasing, so that gives me a 30 second window, so maybe I better look for a bad hand I want to fold, and go pee then before the break letting my time clock run. It seems I still have a full time clock, so that gives me 60 seconds plus the 15 before the time clock kicks in..."

Math is good to use when playing.....:p
