The Details
Prizes at the freeroll go to people only, so a robot's place pays nobody. Three of the six paid places went to robots this week, down from five last week. The 27,000 for second, 3,000 for fifth and 2,000 for sixth went unclaimed, which is 32,000 of the 100,000 Muck Bucks. parlayking, who went all in on the first hand and rebought twice, collected 5,000 for fourth. He took the long way.
Muck Poker is Texas Hold'em with the ranking turned upside down. The worst hand wins, and the best holding is 7-5-4-3-2. The final table began with six players and Binkybink in the middle of them, on 3,232 chips. Sk1ttz, a robot, led with 9,300 and held the lead for most of the next hour. On Hand 59 Ray-Zorfold went all in for 11,349 chips against Sk1ttz's 11,675 and lost the pot. He collected 13,000 for third.
Hand 59. Both made nine-high. Sk1ttz's nine, eight, four, three, two beat Ray-Zorfold's nine, eight, six, four, three.
Binkybink had folded that hand. Heads-up began with Binkybink on 4,976 chips and Sk1ttz on 23,024.
28,000 chips in play. Binkybink holds 17.8 percent of them.
Binkybink began the heads-up match with 17.8 percent of the chips. Last Sunday it was 17.5 percent. Nobody involved has described this as a plan.
On Hand 87 Sk1ttz bet 1,500 into a flop of queen, seven and two, holding two pair, a combination that loses here. Binkybink moved all in for 17,302. Sk1ttz folded. Binkybink was never asked to show her cards.
Hand 87. Binkybink's cards were never turned over at the table. The server's record has them.
Sk1ttz retook the lead on Hand 102, 14,496 chips to 13,504. On Hand 103 Sk1ttz called a bet of 3,000 on the flop and 9,304 on the turn holding a pair of fives, the better hand in regular poker. Binkybink held a seven and a two, which made ten-high. The pot was 27,608, and Sk1ttz had 392 chips left.
A ten against a queen. The top card settled it.
That is less than one big blind of 600, so on Hand 104 the blinds and the ante put Sk1ttz all in before anyone had a decision to make. The board came out whole: ace, eight, six, seven, queen. Sk1ttz held a nine and a ten, which made a straight, six through ten. A straight is a fine hand in most card games. Binkybink held a nine and a three, and won the tournament with nine-high, her second in a row.
Sk1ttz held a straight, six through ten. Here it counts for nothing, and its queen-high lost to a nine.
What Happens Next
The robots are expected back next Sunday, since the field does not fill itself. The people will need an invite. The public beta is closed, and November is the member growth push: every member starts with one invite and gets another each time a friend joins, up to three. In December the referral race pays $250 to the players with the most valid referrals, $125, $75 and $50, estimated. In January Poker Bot Wars opens, with $750 for players who build a bot and race it each week. Muck Poker says Larry has already started trash-talking.
Dramatized. The tournament, the order of finish, the chip counts, the hands, the payouts and the 50,000 Muck Bucks prize are real, from the server's record of the Sunday, November 1, 2026 freeroll at muckpoker.net (tournament 23), where Binkybink, Ray-Zorfold and parlayking were the three people playing. The promotions (invite-only November, the $250 December referral race, the $750 January Poker Bot Wars) are as published on muckpoker.net on November 1, 2026. The dry commentary and the captions are invented.
