Everything follows the same I did not see or notice any change

 

[moots]

Hmm...I just got about $1.20 because 2 people hit the jackpot ???

The Deal jackpot jumped from 40k to 100k in a few hours, but it's offline now. Strange.

Not many players were aware of the Jackpot on FullTilt but now that it is on Stars; things will get crazy as Stars is so much bigger.

I found this article:

Full Tilt's 'The Deal' jackpot won 7 September 2016

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Full Tilt Deal's sixth ever jackpot was won 7 September by 'Ronal7do', from Russia. The total jackpot was $384,040.92, of which 50% went to the winner ($192,024.46) – a huge result that far surpasses any previous payout.

The other 50% was shared equally between those who played The Deal in the previous 12 hours – 1,157 players each received $165.96

Just checking his trny results and its nice to see he made his "Top 3" trny cashes at pokerstars this month:

$5.22, $3.00, and $1.96

Its nice to see he didn't go crazy with the money and plays micros still.

Now 167k +

Yeah the Jackpot is growing so fast now that it is visible on Stars.

I've already seen 2 players spin the wheel so far. At this rate the Jackpot won't stay there for long.

The PokerStars decided to move FullTilt .

Yep, too many players now. Someone just hit the 200k jackpot and I got only $1.23. If it was just on Full Tilt, 50% of the jackpot split between players would probably be getting $75+.

 

[moots]

Someone hit it again...in less than two days!

 

[MREM]

Considered playing this morning since I figured lots of people would play on a sunday holiday, but didn't

Is the reward proportional to the times you played when someone hits the jackpot?

No, 50% of the jackpot is split evenly with everyone who played it within the last 12 hours.

Before you would get anywhere from $15 to $160, depending on how big the Jackpot was, now it's about $1.

How many coins are people dumping into this game? Someone hit the jackpot again!

 

[WeenieSVK]

Yes I got like 3$ just because other people hits jackpot I spent 28 starscoins there (Played one time every day ) which is equivalent of 0,28$ if I am right? So well invested starscoins I guess BTW is this the deal promotion there all the time? I didnt notice it before, just during Christmas.

Stars is in another level compared to other sites. Many players are playing like crazy no matter what the cost.

If players are spending their coins on this slot-like jackpot then they are not buying tournament tickets in the store.

Won 1.75$ from people hitting it so far.
I just play to have the peak hour covered.

Which means less money going into tournaments and actually less rake for Pokerstars (Pokerstars has stated that this game is rake free). But, it gets more people to play poker though.

I don't understand your logic.

Why would people want to play more poker? To get points to play the Jackpot game?

300K jackpot can not see:smile:

I was thinking one had to be actively playing in a poker game in order to play this lottery type of game. I'm thinking it will probably get more freerollers and new players to deposit to try to hit. I'm still surprised pokerstars would offer this game as rake free though.

 

[moots]

I think someone hit the jackpot recently, but I didn't get my share for playing within the last 12 hours

I still have the problem I mentioned in the Stars Rep Thread, when I click on the deal link or if I click on yes to watch the jackpot attempt the software shuts down and restarts automatically.

Does anyone else have this issue.

:dontknow:
