PokerStars The Deal

[Papadejro]

Can anyone simply explain to me how it works and is it profitable?

The Deal is like video poker - you wager 7 or 70 Star Coins and are dealt 5 cards. Make a hand - win Star Coins. The better the hand, the more star coins. Hit a Royal wagering 7 coins or Quads or better wagering 70 and you have a shot at the jackpot.

Would I play? I'd throw 7 coins every day if the jackpot is high because if the jackpot is won, half of it gets distributed among all those who played The Deal within the last 12 hours. That is the only reason I'd play...

Generally speaking it's worth waiting until the jackpot is upward of $100,000 before playing..

I think some people wait until it's even higher and then play it twice a day, about 12 hours apart.

you need to play at least 1 time every 12 hours
then you will get % of the jackpot drawn if someone wins

Is it the case that it's more propable to someone score jackpot after 100,000? Is it usually happening then?

Are you sure that you wanted to reply in my thread?

I used to play it when the prizepool was over $200.000 , cause then the time forthe jackpot tobe trigerred is close , so I spend very few starcoins (7 every 12 hours) and I get a slice of the prize in the end (half prize destributed to players who have played last 12 hours )

Unfortunatelly DEAL now is not open for he Greeks , I do not know the best way to spend my starcoins , the existed ones (but tickets )isnot good for me . I hope they bring the game back in the .gr client lobby

The mechanics of The Deal aren't really known to me, so I'm not sure about the probability.

However, I think it's fair to say that more jackpots happen after $100k than before it... :dontknow:

You can see the history somewhere I believe! :wink:

I recommend playing now during early week even tho it's only 60k jackpot. Many people don't play it unless it's 100k or more, some only when it's 200k or more. So the split money will be bigger since pool is smaller.

I used to play to The Deal but this becomes a bit addictive.., I really dont know the odds to win there, but I finished lost all..lol. :joyman:

I think it would be profitable to try on weekends and when the jackpot is big enough.

I save now the Startcoins and change it for $Tickets at the Rewards Store, I think it is a better investment. Good luck!

When I run The Deal Jackpot on PC, the program closes automatically.

The pokerstars deal is like a casino slot. Your chances of winning are as slim as possible. I don't particularly like it, I'd rather play in casinos it's cheaper.

It doesn't get over 400000 very often. I just wish I had coins to play.

This is a good advice, but I think that better than that is to keep saving Star Coins as much as you can because as little as they might look, they are part of our rakeback.
