PokerStars’ 90 Billionth Hand Promotion
Posted by: Jo Martin - Sun, 2012-11-25 07:40
PokerStars are at it again: hardly has their last landmark hand promotion gone by, they’re already pushing a new one, once again reaching deep into their pockets to offer players some pretty outstanding added value. The 90 billionth hand is about to be dealt at the site and
PokerStars are getting ready to award around $1 million in cash prizes to mark the celebrations in a proper way.
The 90 billionth hand promotion is part of the larger Road to 100 Billion promotion. Prizes will be awarded every 1 millionth hand as players make their way from 89,700,000 to 90 billion. The prizes will be given away at the regular real money cash game tables and the stakes aren’t a factor in the equation. What this means is that those who play micro-stakes can make handsome money on the promotion too, although exactly how much they get will depend on the amount of VPP points they will have generated during the 50 hands leading up to the milestone one. High stakes players will obviously accrue more VPP points, so it pays to play big and to stay active at PokerStars’ cash game tables these days.
The first milestone hand of the new promotion-shower is projected to come about on Saturday, November 24. The Mega Milestone, which is the actual 90 billionth hand, is expected to come about roughly 6 days later.
Considering a maxed-out VPP point production, the winner of the promotion may take down more than $100k.
Thus far, the player to reap the biggest reward off the ongoing Road to 100 Billion promotion was edroqui07, who won the 75 billionth hand and ended up taking home a $42k prize. Those who do not yet have a PokerStars account should create one now and start playing right away!
