it's to confuse those with the stars!!!  aquastar aquastar aquastar aquastar aquastar

I am not 100% sure but i guess it would have something to do with doubling 2>4>8>16>32>64>128>256>512>1024

Or dodgy maths. (Doubling......"128 - 356 - 512".....). What DO they teach in schools these days? Not like that in my day.

it's cuz of the binary conversion, 'puters use a binary code system:-
The nearest binary number to 1,000 is 2^10 or 1,024; thus 1,024 bytes was named a Kilobyte. So, although a metric "kilo" equals 1,000 (e.g. one kilogram = 1,000 grams), a binary "Kilo" equals 1,024 (e.g. one Kilobyte = 1,024 bytes)
Hope this clears it up lol

Sometimes you have to suffer a little bit in your youth to motivate yourself to succeed in later life.
Do you think if Bill Gates got laid in high school, do you think there'd be a Microsoft?
Of course not.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.
