Not much you can do (without knowing the preflop betting)

Great job man.

I believe I was the Dealer. blinds were 75K and 150k......guy who has been raising everything raises to 720k.....I reraise all in which is about 2mill with my AK. blinds fold and raisemachine calls quickly enough.

My luckiest point was about an hour ago. I was really low stacked and had A-5 from late position. I pushed to try and win blinds and got called by A-10. I hit a str8 :)

That propelled me into the later rounds. Was pretty uneventful other than that. No horrible beats until that last hand.

no matter what I come out losing all my chips there. even if I just call the 720K raise.....he probably pushes me in on the next round of betting. if he checks....I push and he calls me because of pot odds.

so I'm broke regardless :facepalm:

Shit that was fun and lots of work. Played in a smaller tourney last night and made it to nearly the same point and crapped out. Same timeframe too....just short of 7 hrs.

Fuck poker ;)

My brother just cashed out on Monday, got the cheque on Thursday.

But he's a :canada1 ....not sure how it works if you are an American:shrug:

Maybe transfer it to GSP's account, he'll pay ya quick...he's a good guy:0008

I have always had a check mailed to me.... BUT, who do you bank with? If it is Bank of America or Wells Fargo, I would be VERY leery about depositing the check in those banks...need to read up on latest but for a while they were freezing accounts from offshore gambling sites....I need to withdraw some monies too especially with that thread about possibly shutting down all US access to poker....will look into it some more, you do the same and lets compare notes:0074

I think the bigger question is why does America make it so difficult to get money from PokerStars:shrug:

I guess dunclock has a point....no use in getting a cheque if ya can't cash it.:nono:


To give ya an idea how different it is.......I was at the bank when my brother deposited the PokerStars cheque. The teller said "congrads on the win". I don't think that would happen at Wells Fargo:mj07:

Maybe the GSP route is the way to go:142smilie

Can't you cash cheques at one of those "cheque cashing" places:shrug:

Worth paying the 3 percent if ya actually get paid:shrug:

Bank Wire:shrug:

Or just move to Canada...problem solved:142smilie
