The winner of the 250th million hand - TIMESLIP - picked up a nice few prizes, not bad for shoving all-in with 3-2 offsuit & not finding a single caller! His table companions all picked up £00, too. MBN. His Table companions were gerrard9, russfree, craigieboy, ohhyessss, & THEKOP7.

For those who won hands 250 either sie of the 250 millionth hand (that is to say, hand id's 249,999,750 to 250,000,250 will ALL be eligible to play in a £2,500 Freeroll next Saturday, 17th April.

Well done them.

By the way, those who received cash bonuses in the 250 millionth hand promotion will have their accounts credited within 48 hours.

    If your in a free roll and you won the hand within 250 of the 250mil hand does it still count?

    I don't see why the hands in a freeroll shouldn't count.

    After all they are included in the number of hands that have been played on Sky Poker.

    Just my opinion.

    There won't be 500 runners anyway, I was battling it out HU for 1st/2nd place from the 6 starters in an STT at the time, my oppenent won 2 hands and I won 3 in the +/-250 range (we missed the 25 millionth by 22 hands). I would imagine there will be a few other players who won more than one qualifying hand on other tables. Also many players won't even realise they qualified so won't register for the freeroll.

    I dont want to put a dampener on things, but in the T & C's it does say that freeplay tables do not count, and in this situation, the prizes will transfer to subsequent hands, so i reckon freeplay tables are gonna be dissapointed, but you never know?

    really freeplay people should still get the seat in the freeroll because they played with their cash to make poker points to enter the freerolls any how

    Freeplay isn't the same as Freeroll.

    I am certain you will be in it if you were playing in a freeroll. Freeplay tables are those that players use "play" money and so those will not be included but as you were in a real money tournement then you will be invited.
