Forum: $700,000 Milestone Hands
How to win a Milestone Hand
Simply play any real money ring game, at any stake, for the chance to be dealt into a Milestone Hand.
The size of your prize is based on your activity over the 49 hands played leading up to a Milestone Hand, plus the number of VIP Player Points (VPPs) you earn in a Milestone Hand itself.
Milestone Hands 1-299
Players at the table dealt a regular Milestone Hand will win prizes as follows:
• Winner: (# of VPPs in last 50 hands x $60) + $100 = Prize
• Other players at table: (# of VPPs in last 50 hands x $30) + $50 = Prize
Milestone Hand 300
Players at the table dealt into Milestone Hand 300 will win prizes as follows:
• Winner: (# of VPPs in last 50 hands x $1,000) + $4,000 = Prize
• Other players at table: (# of VPPs in last 50 hands x $500) + $2,000 = Prize
$100,000 Stake Share
Once all 300 Milestone Hand prizes have been calculated, whatever is left of the $700,000 award fund will be shared between all players dealt into the same stake (for example: $0.50/$1, No Limit Hold’em) at the exact time Milestone Hand 300 is dealt.
This remaining prize pool will then be split proportionally among all players, based on the number of VPPs each player has earned in the 49 hands leading up to Milestone Hand 300.
No matter how much is awarded across the Milestone Hands, PokerStars are guaranteeing a minimum Stake Share of $100,000, but the giveaway could be even bigger!
Please Note: Only real money cash game hands dealt in on the PokerStars desktop client and Mobile app are eligible for prizes. Milestone Hands will not be dealt in tournaments, Sit & Go's, Zoom games, on play money tables or on Home Games tables.
