As you can see from the screen capture above, an announcement was made to the table, and a moderator even implied that folding pre-flop would be ludicrous. (The winner gets a $60k bonus, in addition to double the regular payout)
Despite that sage advice one player mucked his cards to an opening raise. We're hoping that was a misclick since deciding to do that ranks pretty high up there on the absolute mental retardation scale.
The remaining five players wisely stuck around until showdown with Pogo650's Q-3 flopping a pair of treys, the best hand when all was said and done.
All told almost $200,000 was handed out to the six players at this low-stakes Limit table. Not bad for an afternoon of online poker.
