I wish someone would pay me a million in error so that I could find out if I would pay it back.

Really weird statements above. Its not "not paying back" its outright theft.


True.

I'm happy to amend my statement to:

I wish someone would pay me a million in error so that I could find out if I would ouhtright steal it.

I have to admit that it would be an easier decision if I have been send a million twice and only the second one was in error.   Tongue

Makes even less sense this way too. If you had a 250k net then 4xing it through theft is nowhere near as greedy as taking a second million to add to the pile.

Its not theft is someone gives it to you in error its tough titty to the other party.  I'd be keeping it and swanning off to the sun, especially if it was full tilt.

In law it's theft mate, the same way as when a bank credits your account with a load of dosh, if you leg it they will prosecute you.

Saying that, someone I know got a sizeable double credit from an online payment processor, kept the dough and they didn't, or couldn't pursue him. And I know there used to be a similar scam on Neteller where people were depositing thousands (they didn't have in their accounts) and trying to spin it up on a freeroll.

I don't blame Lindgren for keeping it. If he'd have paid it back it just would have got swallowed up by the big ponzi scheme anyway. And everyone got their funds  back in the end   ;-)

Every cash hand on Stars has a number from the very first one to number gazillion which is where we are now.  Stars pay out a lot of money to players who play in a hand that has lots of zeroes at the end.  It is obviously just intended for real
Money cash tables but last night it opened a play money table in error.  From what I can make out, that hand was then cancelled.  Cue carnage.

Love the way people say "how the hell can this happen?", as if they have spent their whole life never making or coming across a mistake before.  No idea how/if it has been sorted.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

The astonishment is that the programming to pick the hand managed to exclude play money hands in the gazillion previous times it picked hands.  So either that was just an astonishing coincidence or someone changed the programming, which seems an odd thing to do.

Casino is now live.

Also, they've added equity percentages to the table for all-in showdowns which is something Stars were strongly against implementing in the past.

Why were they previously against %?

As long as they don't implement the Hot-O-Meter, we'll all be okay Smiley
