Default Party Poker 100k hand bonus

Right now Party is having a lucky hand bonus. Every 100k hands the winner of the hand gets $500 and everyone else at the table gets $100. What's stopping us from taking over a table and have everyone fold to the BB unless it's a "lucky hand" and then everyone just limps/checks it down?

Even if we do take over a table its still very unlikely that we will hit the 100k hand.

quite possibly one of the dumber ideas I've heard all day.
1) You don't know when the lucky hand is going to hit.
2) Checking it down is just retarded period. All for a very small chance at $140 EV.
3) Party probably wouldn't give out the bonus after reviewing the hand history of everyone checking down.

Nothing, I don't think. We did this for paradise and pstars when they were celebrating some anniversary hands, some months ago.

I don't see why they wouldn't. I think they'd have less of a problem with that then when we took over a bad beat table trying to win the jackpot. That was a good time though. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Just to clarify....a lot of NON 2+2'ers were doing this also.
And for these anniversary-hand promotions the payout was MUCH better.
It's just not worth it for the party promotion.

Just play 4-tables like you normally would and hope for the best. I don't see much benefit from auto-folding as quickly as possible on this one....but if 6 of you guys wanted to get a 6-max table for auto-folding purposes you might have a shot at it.
