25 Billion Hands on PokerStars
Published by admin on February 17, 2009
This Monday, the world’s leading online poker room Poker Stars managed to reach an incredible milestone: 25 Billion hands dealt. Unfortunately there were some problems during the process.
The fun part started the after the 24.5 Billion hands dealt. From that moment at each and every million hand there were some really nice prizes offered.
The incredible 25 Billion hand was achieved at a Omaha Hi Lo table. That game was a $1/$2 Limit. More than one thousand people stayed in line to get a seat at that lucky table and play poker with those players. There were 6 players at that table but unfortunately only 5 managed to win the prize since the 6th player was waiting until the blinds will go around to him. That was one notable mistake that cost him more than $30,000.
The problems that appeared during this period was created by a software error and it managed to bring a little bit of confusion at the online poker tables, but the problem was promptly fixed!
Here is the list with the players that managed to get a chunk of the large prize offered by Poker Stars:
NeonFrost: Won high pot — $50,000 and tournament package
tupapi777: Won low pot — $50,000 and tournament package
