All in on a PS milestone hand?
I was recently dealt into a million milestone hand on a No Limit Pokerstars table. I looked at my exceptionally crappy cards: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. The observers were all chanting, 'all in... all in!'
Assume the following: You are on a $5/$10 6-person No Limit Table. All players have approx. $1,000 stacks. No one else folds. Suppose you are on the button and the other players in front of you have moved all in. You are a platinum level VIP. |

Re: All in on a PS milestone hand?
Stacks matter too, and if anyone else has folded behind you. Also your VIP status is very important. Also:
Edit- Poletardish, I was harsh, and stacks were inlcuded. |

Depends on what the payout is. If you triple up despite losing the hand, do it.

You also get the following bonus: SilverStar 15% Bonus GoldStar 30% Bonus PlatinumStar 60% Bonus Supernova 120% Bonus Supernova Elite 200% bonus So, even if you are a Supernova Elite (I think only one person is), you will get only $2,400. That's a little more than doubling up, but I do not think you can ever triple up by going all in and losing the hand. Anyhow, for this question, assume you are a Platinum Star VIP. Then what? How does it change if you're SuperNova? |

Re: All in on a PS milestone hand?
if you fold you get $1280 with your vip level since you just have to be delt in the hand
Starting with hand 9,900,000,000, we will award cash prizes for every millionth hand dealt - leading up to the first EVER 10 Billionth Hand online! If you are dealt into one of the 100 milestone hands* in a cash ring game, you'll walk away with a cash prize between $100 and $2000. |

The winner gets an additional 1920 for winning the hand. 62o has about 9.15% equity against 5 random hands and will tie at least 1 player 1% of the time. So with just that , you're getting rougly $650-700 back for your 1000, so not worth it.

It's surprising how many people think you should move all in no matter. As you say: your cards, your VIP status, stack sizes, and other player's actions do make a difference. And, sometimes it is correct to fold. |

Those people berating you probably have $10 in stars.
