Re: Unfortunate Milestone abuse at Pokerstars...

Stars should rig it so that the milestones don't hit on HU tables and not tell anyone.

They did that in a previous promotion after there was abuse. I think they unriged it this time.

The probability of a player being randomly dealt into a milestone hand is extremely low. The probability of them being dealt into TWO of the 400 milestone hands is infinitesimal. Any more than that, I call blatant shenanigans. There is just no way that one player, playing a normal # of tables at a time, has his table picked for the milestone hand by random chance more than twice.

Anyone willing to follow this guy and report back here?
OK NotTheFish. Here is the list of people on the milestone hand tables so far. Where is he?

go go go
Not getting it, what do the other tables have to do with it. Isnt it the VPP's from the last 40 hands at the table that hits. If you autofolded the last 39 hands how to you get any money.

The OP was from over a year ago talking about the last milestone promo (the one where someone 24 tabling 1c/2c or autofolding huhu would get the same prize as someone playing 5/10)

In Canada we call those people convenience store owners.

Re: Unfortunate Milestone abuse at Pokerstars...

So stars does nothing about the short stacking/rat holing problem.

Now they do nothing about collusion.

No longer the best site on the net imo
