"The remaining prize money from the Million Hand will be split across all other players seated at the same game and stake when the hand was dealt." I don't understand seated at the same game or at the same table.

I would think that's seated at the same table as the person who actually wins the hand......which would be a nice little pile of cash in itself!
...Could you imagine though,.....being the one person who wins the billionth hand... The odds are as bad as buying a lottery ticket. There's usually about 120,000 folks playing at any given time,....and a LOT less playing cash tables....
120,000 of THEM,....one of ME,.....odds in MY favour Batman....

They say that only cash table hands count in that promotion, but what happen if the 100 Bln. hand hit the tourney table ? At the end all hands at PokerStars are numbered one after the other.....no matter if they are deal on Sit & Goes, MTT or at cash tables. If it's not set by them how can they be so sure that it will not hit a table from out of promotion ? Conclusion: If they are sure, it must be set !!!!!!!!!!
