PokerStars\' 10,000,000,000 Hand Fold-apalooza Thread
 

The idea of this thread is to organize groups of 6 players to sit on tables together and fold like crazy when the big 10B hand comes.

My latest Prediction = Today 17:10 ET.

I will post my final prediction at about 16:00 ET at which time we can seriously start organizing groups.

is it the same payout for any limits?

Re: PokerStars\' 10,000,000,000 Hand Fold-apalooza Thread
 

Yes. Any limit will do.

Re: PokerStars\' 10,000,000,000 Hand Fold-apalooza Thread
 

if I am reading this correctly, the full 10k/100k prize is available at any limit..(and a bonus for VIP levels?)

which would be great because I have very little money on stars...and we could 12 table...correct?

if this is correct, I'm in..shout me a holla

he BIG 10 Billion - What's up for grabs?

Players dealt into the 10 Billionth Hand are in for a treat! If you're one of the players fortunate enough to be in the hand, here's what you could get:

* $100,000 cash to the winner of the 10 Billionth Hand
* $10,000 to all other players in the hand
* WCOOP Main Event ticket to all players who've been dealt in

Like the milestone hands, prizes will be multiplied according to your current VIP level, which means that hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of cash prizes could be won on hand number 10,000,000,000, so make sure you are at the tables!

awesome, so the gameplan would be...get a group of 6 people together (preferrably with AIM..to ease communication..right?) and get into 12 micro tables (someone in another thread said that 12 tables would be the max..can anyone confirm?)...and fold it out..(we could sit down and sit out a little early..right)

I don't know if you are starting a group, Silent A, but I'd like to be in it if you don't already have one together...

if you are already set, please tell me so that I can get anothe group together.

thanks gent

So far I have a tentative group of 4 going. I've sent PMs to those who have expressed an interest (please verify that you're actuallty in). That leaves 2 spots open. First come first serve.

Feel free to start up other groups.

That's the plan.

General tips for optimal folding ...

1) sit at high-speed/fast Hold'em tables
2) under "advanced multi-table options" select "popup table whenever user action is required"
3) turn off all animations
4) arrange your tables such that they are all on top of each other
5) when the time comes, click "fold" like a mad man.

Organizing tips ...

1) use AIM (or similar) to avoid arranging tables through the PS chat. Based on my experience from last year, interplopers will try to jump in and will monitor your chat to see what table you're going for.

2) It'll be important to jump into tables quickly for the same reasons. I suggest each person tries to sit in the same seat at each table in order to avoid getting in each other's way while someone jumps in on an empty seat.
