A lot of commission plans, even those which advertise "uncapped" commission, will still have the ability to set a cap for commission due to a single whale. Not that hitting your cap is an unenviable position in itself or anything... just perhaps a lot less exciting than it may sound (or not, just depends on the rules in the plan and what the leadership decides on the given deal). That is, if one sales rep can even claim such a large deal as their own work.
E.g. a few years back I worked with a guy (at an IT sector company) who had a quota of 3 million in the region, but won a single deal worth 30 million + had a great quarter in general anyways. He ended up not getting too much more than if he just had the great quarter.

Sorry to share - there's no sales guy here. It all happened at the top, hint - Stargate.
