Every 200,000 hands in the countdown to 1 billion is a "Countdown Hand," while every 5 millionth hand is a "Jackpot Hand." Cash players who participate in one of these hands can win prizes up to $14,000. The winners of the Jackpot Hands also win ECOOP II tickets.
All players participating in the final 100 hands leading up to the billionth hand gain entry to a special $10,000 freeroll. And that's not all:
The Billionth Hand
If you're fortunate enough to be part of the billionth hand, not only will you get a seat in the $10,000 freeroll, you'll also receive $30,000. If you happen to win the 1 billionth hand, you will be awarded $50,000, and have a $2,500 bounty put on your head for the $10,000 freeroll.

Titan Poker to send players to Austria
The Salzburg Poker Cup is anticipated to attract 400 players for its Main Event as well as hundreds more to the two side events scheduled.
Not only will winners at Titan Poker get a shot at the main event, they'll also get to play in Event 2 of the Poker Cup. The $4,000 prize packages being given out at Titan Poker include the buy-ins for both events.
The prize package also includes accommodation, flights and spending money as well as the opportunity to enjoy what the city has to offer. Titan Poker will take its players on a private beer tour, provide an exclusive iPoker lunch, and give players a chance to explore the city.

The super satellite has a $100+$9 buy-in and will start at 8:05 p.m. (CET). There are also ongoing and daily qualifiers for players to win their way into the super-satellite for much less of an out-of-pocket investment.

The victim, whose identity was not released pending the notification of his family, was pronounced dead at 4:05 p.m. at AtlantiCare Medical Center in Atlantic City.
Perez is in custody and faces charges of aggravated manslaughter and two weapons charges.
