Today the pokerstars room has a freeroll ( which is not for everyone ) and it's called celebration of the 200 billions hands. If you qualified for it, do not forget about it because is a free with 200.000 dollars. I hope most of you have qualified for it.

Ok Thanks, finally I was in. Really my worst poker experience. Look like hand for hand game, blind increase so fast, just 2 or 3 hand every level . Not enjoy the game, and lost AQos VS 22. Always bad freeroll at PS for me

It was a huge tournament with 213,992 players which moved very hard on the first hands. After 5 minutes of play Pokerstars began to offer the prizes: 5000 x $ 2.20 tickets, 399 x $ 22 tickets and 48 x $ 215 tickets. I won nothing and i did not finish in the money. 27,391 players was in the money with 200,000 dollars prizes. 1st won $ 7.771 and second $ 8.284 after deal.

The numbers i see here are crazy. A tournament with more than 200k players But the number of players in the money was also big. With 27k getting paid, it must have been easier to win something. If the numbers are right here reading the above post, the second player won more money than the first? It was a knock out one, or how that happened ?

It was an agreement ( a deal ) and Pokerstars when players making such an arrangement, they must stop a percentage for the winner, but not always the 1st place wins the most money. Sometimes when in a tournament remain 3 players, they make a deal, but 1st has a huge stack, than the other two and because of this he win an important sum, but he does not win the tournament and the winner of the tournament will receive less money because of the deal.

Just how many of those 27k were bots though? I bet more than a thousand
Of course, such a cool distribution causes a lot of emotions, but unfortunately I don’t take part in it because I currently have no means at PokerStars and therefore I remain a bystander and envious in the hope that I’m lucky somewhere else.

A huge game from pokerstars to celebrate a huge acheievement of 200 billion hands and with over 200 thousand players in the mega Freeroll, action was exceptionally slow with me experiencing about one hand every five minutes for the first 20 minutes, with each of the handouts not coming my way. I went out around 100 thousand so got no where near the money.
. Anyone got same problem ?
Good luck next time
