I don't know what the record is for the number of players on line and seated is for Sky Poker, but I can imagine that when the 200th Million hand is approaching, there will be a lot more players than usual seated at tables hoping to play 'The Hand'.
Good luck to all players.

    Thats a thought.... Sky recently experienced trouble when alot of players were seated... are they prepared for the amount of players going to be seated soon??

    Obviously it varies and can depend if we see the flop, turn and river etc, if you play a game around 9 pm, the hand numbers go from anything between 100 - 700 difference. The chances of getting that elusive 200m hand i would say are from 100 to 700 to 1. If your multi tabling then the odds are reduced but i wouldnt hold your breath at being that lucky number.

    Hi Charles,

    That "issue" was not related to the number of players on the site.

    I went down to the shoe-shine and word on the street is that it was related to the number of players on the site. The crooked RNG had a hard time reshuffling the 'logical pack of cards' for a record number of outdraws when all those players were present. The IT team have now split the crooked RNG off onto it's own processor so it won't affect the other functions when it's 'fixing'.....

    Naturally 'they' will cover up and blame it on a faulty acoustic coupler or punched tape reader.

    I am willing to take a 700 to 1 chance on playing 'The Hand'.
    Better odds than the lottery.
