Also, remember Neon only had $7 in front of him at $1/$2 O8 in the 25billion hand. Luckily in the case of the 10 billionth milestone hand, the only way it cost those two clowns who did fold more prize money was if they happened to have a higher flush. If that had happened they would still be on tilt. But OMG, is that video unbelievable.
I don't think that you can assume how someone would play their hand. The truth is that there was a problem with too many people on stars and I think that should be somehow covered in the pokercast. Treating the players all in or not is not the problem here, but the problem was the fact that the servers could not handle the stress.
Yes, any one who knows they are in the 25th billionth hand would never fold; but I guess that goes the same for saying that anyone who knew they were being dealth the 25th billionth hand would always post BB no matter the cost, and yet we see this not happening. If we start assuming that everyone would go all in when they are on a freeroll for scooping the 100k + tournament package, then pokerstars should also assume that confedrate posted his BB, no?
