Well, an hour or two head up (before you started 10 tabling) would have done just fine...

Meh, my own fault for being too lazy to check in on this.

This was an entertaining promotion. I didn't hit any anniversary hands, but the double FPP was nice. There also seemed to be a lot of action at the 25 max level (hard to find an open seat sometimes).

It always happens. Either they're clueless about the promotion, or they think its some kind of scam, or just idiots.

I was at a stud/8 table earlier in the day and about 100K hands from a milestone, 5 people call the BI and we miss the milestone by like 5 hands.

In chat I say "great. right before a milestone hand 5 people call the bring-in. Must hate money."

2 people say something to the effect of "what's a milestone hand?" Like most areas in life, people don't friggin' pay attention.

and his response....


“might at as well explain what happend here about that 10billionth hand before I get swamped with questions about it, really annoying by the way. I was on 50 tables, with 5 different cpus, and 5 different star names, the only way i could manage them all was by using a bob and weave strategy of automatically clicking the gold ‘fold to any bet’ option, when I had realized one of my tables was the winner i quickly noticed i had 24o, and thought it would be a wise idea to lobby for a chop, i was confused at first because the guy in charge was not in red, also i was overwhelmed knowing i was going to receive a quick 13k and a wcoop ticket regardless of the outcome, the guy told us there would be a 10 minute waiting period, it was more like 4 or 5, i was still asking questions about the chop, when he suddenly goes here we go, I said “I have Aks, but don’t think it’s worth to risk it”, meaning I don’t think it’s worth to have the fate of 100,000 by dumb luck, and said i had aks to fear the other players into thinking a chop would be a good way to go considering the strenth of my hand, and i though if i said i had aa, kk, etc, they might not believe me, when the hand was dealt I assure you I was more than distraught to see my cards go into the muck, you see I, and 7 other people watching my computer at that moment, had failed to notice, that this table had already had the gold ‘fold to any bet’ option checked. It was checked already of course, because I had already clicked it when i was trying to fold all the tables as fast as possible. Dumb mistake, I know, but not like the action actually came to me and i pressed fold. I did not protest, because my hand was 24o with a finishing hand of 4 high. I couldn’t imagine how I would feel if I had the winner, but am still 3 dollars richer.

reminds me of the old adage: "Better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you're an idiot than to open it and remove all doubt."
