Re: PS: 10 Billionth Hand Promo Details
[ QUOTE ]
asg - it was pointed out earlier in the thread that the numbers are somewhat deceiving. The hand numbers include play-money and tournament tables. But none of those are eligible for the milestone hand. So if a given hand is only 3,000 off, probably half of those that came between you and the milestone weren't eligible anyway so you were really only 1,500 off. That's a total approximation. It's entirely possible that play-money and tournament hands actually account for more than 50%. I haven't bothered to look. I don't understand what you're driving at in your other post. Homer is pretty sharp about all of this stuff. And his approximation looks like a really good one to me. [/ QUOTE ] I had no idea the play money and tourney tables were included, so I'm the one way off then. That said I don't know if he accounted for speed play in his calculation. You think the number is about 6k tables then? |

[ QUOTE ] odds of hitting it 1 time if you sat at 12 tables for all 100 hands? [/ QUOTE ] Wild ass guess... 1/6000 chance of hitting at each table, means 1-(5999/6000)^12 = .002 or .2% chance of hitting on one of the millions. if you sat 12 tables for each of the 100 chances, it'd be like 1-(.998)^100 = 18% chance of being at a table that hit at least one time. [/ QUOTE ] I think you're closer than I thought, but what about speed play? |

To be honest I don't know if 6000 is the right number as I just guessed based on my minimal observations during play. |

Re: PS: 10 Billionth Hand Promo Details
6000 is way to high IMO, I think there are only 16000 cash players at peak during the promotion.

Re: PS: 10 Billionth Hand Promo Details
First one I've seen on a non holdem table. Guess it makes sense with so many more holdem tables.
