Full House Poker

more of a post than guide but thought would put it up after reading about spring being unobtainable. I play for fun and just unlocked 5 million in summer 2011. ON THE 9th MAY 2012. so this gamer will be playing through the seasons to see what pops. I think it will be fine when spring starts so will the chance to get the achievements. Just keep playing folks n good luck they'll pop in the end.

Ta 4 the comments fellow gamers. Read below 4 individual comments and credits go to them but here's abit of a summary.
The dlc's for Full House Poker R free and the summer achievements Winners Circle, summer 2011, Gold Medal Champion Summer 2011 and Hot Pot Master, Summer 2011 are unobtainable as are the achievements for the spring collection Hot Pot Master Spring 2011, Gold Medal Champion Spring 2011 remains unobtainable unless the developers are planning to split the seasons again and let us go get them I don't think it would be that hard and they have managed to squeeze in Avatar Fame Star. Thanks again 4 the input

Also I want to point out that once you play at the Triple Diamond table, and bust out down to the Double Diamond, you can exit the session and re-join and end up back at the Triple Diamond.

I received my achievement doing this so I can confirm that the chips DO count that you win after exiting and re-joining, as long as you finish the session…

SO

My method would be to Move All-In with a decent hand, or ANY hand early on in the round, because you will A.) Double/Triple/Quadruple up or B.) Bust out, and then re-join the session and get back to the Triple Diamond.

If you re-join and end up at the Double or Single Diamond tables, just exit and try again.

However, later in the round, say around the 5:00 minute mark, I would re-join for the final time and try to play conservatively if you haven't amassed a big amount of chips yet so you will finish with at least $250,000, give or take.

You can risk missing the Triple Diamond if you push for it too late, however I did join once with 2:34 left and went All-In and ended up winning around $600,000 =)

So, theoretically you don't NEED to play the first 15-20 minutes at all, you can join and get to the Triple Diamond table and just finish up the end of the round, if you have something else to do around the house. But, playing from the start gives you a good chance of amassing a large amoung of chips because it eliminates the risk of losing an All-In bet.

Good Luck!

Also note that it took me around 7 million for my achievement to pop, and I didn't clear cache. I don't know what the deal is with it but I suggest just keep pushing until it pops… using this method it should cut down on the frustration quite a bit, if you get frustrated, just join a session that's almost done and win $250,000...
