Terms & Conditions
- The promotion will start when hand ID 1,990,000,000 is dealt. The hand ID’s are determined by the number assigned to them by our system, as they appear on the table (on the topâ€left corner).
- Tournament hands do not participate in this promotion (they are assigned different hand ID’s).
- Platinum hands occur every 2,500,000 hands as follows: 1,990,000,000; 1,992,500,000; 1,995,000,000; and 1,997,500,000. (A total of 4 platinum hands).

- The two billionth hand will be the hand which is assigned the hand ID: 2,000,000,000.
- All participating players of golden and platinum hands will take a cash prize as detailed in the above tables.
- Winners of both golden and platinum hands will be entitled for a Monthly Million guaranteed tournament ticket (on January 10th 2010). In case of a split pot, the winning player sitting closer to the dealer button will be entitled to the entry ticket.
- All participating players of every golden and platinum hand will split their cash prize equally and together with the winner of the hand. This means that at a 6 player table, in which the hand winner wins a prize of $X, the rest of the players at that table will split their $X equally with the winner: X/6, so the winner actually wins $X+$X/6.
- If a winning hand has two winners or more, they will divide the sum of the winner bonus and the participating players’ bonus.
- Players must be dealt cards on the hand in order to be eligible for the bonus. Players sitting out will not be eligible.
- Players suspected of “soft playing†will not be entitled to any bonuses. iPoker’s collusion team has the final word in any such cases.
- All players in hand ID 1,999,999,901 †2,000,000,000 (total of 100 hands including the two billionth hand) will participate in a special bubble bounty freeroll. The freeroll will give away 20 tickets to the Monthly Million guaranteed tournament on January, and a bounty for the winner. The freeroll will take place on a Sunday, at least seven full days after the two billionth hand is dealt, as per an announcement from iPoker.
- In order to participate in the bubble bounty freeroll, the two billionth hand winner must agree to have his nickname changed for the duration of the freeroll.
- If the bounty player wins the bubble bounty freeroll he will win the bounty in addition to his other prizes.
- In case of a split pot in the two billionth hand, the bounty will be split between all the hand winners.
- Winning hands may be published by our cardrooms and their affiliates. Players who do not agree to this will not be entitled to the bonus.
- All decisions as made by iPoker are final.
* For example: in a 5 player table where the winner takes $50 and the participants split $50, what will happen is as follows:
o The two winners will take $35 each, by this formula: (50+((50*2)/5))/2 = $35.
o The participating players split the remainder, meaning $10 each, by this formula: ((50*2)â€(35*2))/3 = $10.
o The total prizes for the hand will therefore remain the same: $100.
