Mystery surrounds PokerStars 70th billion hand celebration

[pkaff]

24 is max they can play. AND you are missing the point, they folded every hand for an hour or so, so no rake was being taken from the players. Was a heads-up table so their stacks were staying the same , just at the tables hoping the 70b hand would go while sitting at the table, playing and not contributing rake. Which is definitely against the rules.

they can fold everyhand but they still have to put in bb and sb..i really having a hard time seeing they actually cheated here..

They can play as many tables as they want at a time. There's no rules so they can't play 24 tables, that was very smart of those two.

^^^This, it is total collusion, even though neither were gaining anything from each other, they had agreed to fold every hand until the milestone hand. Once it is reviewed I am sure their accounts will be suspended.
It is along the lines as a chip dump, even though one player is agreeing to give the funds to the other player, it is still collusion and can get your account suspended if they review.

I know that Poker Stars is one of the hardest on playing by the rules, only site I know that really has Mods. that respond within minutes to a table when there are complaints. These people will loose all that money and any other they have there, would be my guess.

exactly , but the sites need to come up with stuff so there is no way around the rules.
