It doesn't matter if you get in a promo hand or not - cash players should LOVE this promo. How can you not be thrilled at all of the fish that infest the cash tables while it is running?

It is about the only time I ever played cash games when I could play there - even I could win. :p

The Stake Share promo paid about 9500- 5NL players about $84 which is nice enough.

But if it would have hit a rarely played game like the Stud 8 table I was at, it would have paid $35,000 per person. Now thats some serious walking around money.

Look what I got
and did not really know they are doing this
somehow missed to read about it

Yes I Like Pokerstrs
I lose more often then I can say
but do win some nice ones too

The big things for me are
-I can find a game I like basically any time I go there
-They have my trust as far as money goes!
-They have a ton of promos! (they make a bundle but do give back too)

Hmm. I watched it live and the moderator said $84. Maybe that was unofficial. Well congratulations then, 33 buy-ins is quite nice!

Also, $84 was an average, it is based off of how many VPPs you earned in the past 49 hands.

Was on 24 tables when it hit, could only get on € tables, so the chance was pretty low of getting a share. Guess i should be watching for your nit reg a little higher than nl$5 from now on.

Some details from Pokerstars:

PokerStars made poker history today by dealing the site’s 100-billionth hand, and rewarded players by giving away $1 million to nearly 10,000 players in just ten minutes. It brings the total prize money awarded to players so far in the 100 Billion Hands Celebration to just over $2 million, with a further $3 million to come in other game promotions (see below) throughout June.
The 100-billionth hand took place at 15:35 ET on Thursday, June 13 on a $0.02/$0.05 No Limit Hold’em 6-Max table, with more than 400,000 players on PokerStars at the time. The winner of the hand was ‘microulis69’ from Greece who received $103,800, which is the largest amount ever awarded to one player in a milestone hand promotion. A further $65,460 was shared among the players at the table, while 9,471 more players split another $830,790.34 in cash rewards for playing at the same type of game and stakes when the 100-billionth hand was dealt.
