Giant in Online Poker Website Makes News With One Hundred BILLIONTH Hand!

It seems that in recent time, the only online poker site in the news is the online giant PokerStars (PS). They are the ones grabbing the headlines and making the headlines recently is the fact that they are soon going to be expecting their one hundred-billionth hand to be played. 

The site has celebrated the half-billion already and they recon the eight-five billionth will soon be ready to fall. What happens when they reach a milestone such as this is that the members earn the rewards. This makes sense, as without their loyal and vital following, the site would not be the powerhouse it is today.

The fact that the eighty-five billionth hand will soon be dealt at the site, is testament to the fact that the Black Friday incidents had virtually no effect on the end product, on PokerStars anyway. They continue to grow from strength to strength in the legalized industry and to celebrate this particular milestone, they will be paying out $1 million in prize money – a cash award.

When the actual hand will fall will be anyone’s guess, but having experience in predicting events of this nature, the brand has said it will take place at a cash table in the ‘next couple of weeks”. The point is to get playing now to get in with a chance to win, should the fateful hand fall. The winner of this particular hand is guaranteed at least $10K. Milestone between 84.7 billion and 85 billion will also offer something extra special. The eighty billionth hand won a Spanish PS player a whopping $22K back in May 2012. Fellow players at the table were each awarded $10K for just being dealt in to a very normal low-stakes cash game. There has never been a better time to get involved, after all, someone has to win!
