Just a few days ago we brought you the news that PokerStars was nearing their 50 Billionth hand dealt and now the milestone has been achieved. The poker hand took place at the $.02/$0.5 no limit hold’em tables and the winner of the 50 billionth hand promotion was online player tbvle.

There were six players at the low limit table when the hand occurred. All players were all in before the flop took place and tvble holding pocket queens he had the potential to win the hand. The flop showed king-jack-ten and after the river and turn were shown, the lucky player won the pot which was worth $46.25 as well as $56,140 for winning the 50 Billionth hand.

$50,500 was paid to the online player automatically for winning the special hand and he earned $5,640 more for earning 11.28 VPP’s in his previous fifty hands. The historic hand took place at the microstakes and it comes as no surprise to PokerStars. These tables see the most game play and they see the most hands played.

The other players involved in the hand earned a reward as well. Each player earned $500 as well as $500 for each VPP they had earned in the previous fifty hands. The players also earned a seat to the $5,200 World Championship of Online Poker which begins in just a few days.

Now PokerStars will continue to count down the hands as they are dealt to get ready for their next big Hand promotion. Will they wait until they reach 100 Billion hands? Who knows, but we all know that PokerStars is one of the best online poker sites available today and having dealt out 50 Billion hands is just one reason they prove they are the best in the business.
