Paddy Power player targuste grabs share of Billionth Hand prize pool!
With the 950,000,000th hand on our poker network being dealt on Tuesday and the prize giving period well and truly underway, Paddy Power player targuste is one of the early winners, sharing in a Countdown Hand Bonus (awarded every 200,000 hands on the way to the Billionth Hand). Congratulations!
The numbers of players on the cash tables have exploded since the 1st prizes were won and I’m sure more and more will pile onto the tables as we come closer to the magic number…I fancy a bit of multi-table action myself, now that I think about it! See you on the tables, I’ll be the player with the shortest stack and the hang-dog expression…

does the winner of the hand get the jackpot or everyone involved? and do you have to be playing certain stakes?

matt, both the winner of each of the special hands (Countdown, Jackpot and the big Billionth One) and the other participants in the hand get some of the prize money - the winner of the hand gets more though! The amount you get depends on the stakes you play, though not for the Billionth Hand, someone playing $.01/$.02 could win this hand and scoop $50,000…nice work if you can get it
