Very nice hands either way one or two cards since I can't seem to hit a Royal Flush no matter what I get. Rarely even see one to be honest I may have seen two. Some sites give a bonus for RF in some of the games. Nice no matter!

Very nice hand, but how could you bet at first game?, Q3s,none raised ? really your lucky moment and you could maximize it. Where were your place at the end of both tourney ? should be nice prize, too ?

I'm not really familiar with the pokerstars tournaments but what tournament is that? What buy in?
"The PokerStars.net Big Game TV show is now showing in New Zealand, running every Friday at 23:15 local time on TV3, from February 24. To celebrate, you can win cash with exclusive free Leader Board tournaments running daily! The Big Game is the smash-hit show where the biggest names in poker compete for high-stakes. The weekly line-up also includes a ‘Loose Cannon’ online qualifier, who gets to test their skills against the pros, with a $100,000 bankroll courtesy of PokerStars. Whatever profit they make, they get to keep, and the Loose Cannon qualifier with the most cash at the end of the season wins a live event package.
How to Play The Big Game Leader Board Tournaments There are tournaments running at 19:30, 21:30 and 12:30 local time, Saturday-Friday. The tournaments use the ‘Time Tourney’ format, which means they only last for an hour. Players are awarded leader board points based on their finishing position in each tournament. "PokerStars.net
Its in PS lobby Tab(s) > Tourney> Regional> BigGame 1hour Tournament (FreeRoll) Its sort of same format as one on TV, but this promotion is for New Zealanders (Kiwi's) only? (as there was this player came on table and he was get assedkicked and he said " you Kiwi's are hard" !!!?) but have seen Ozzy on leaderboard and one day i logged in to see the Thumbnail (at bottom), with diff players form diff country's ? WTF Kiwi only??? never mind im just grateful im playing and its cool format
you start with 100000 chips; Ante 100; SB 200; BB 400, and points are rewarded for what % of chips u have & number players left at end of 1 hour, I like this format as its been nice in the Royal Flush way, I won $2 2nd week it started, but not been to lucky since then, as there's lot good player's and few donks as usual, Kiwi's in general are Good player's I think (as for our population size, but im OneEyed lol) All Thee Best

The one card Royal Flush is the lame one lol. The ones that really count are those with two fo your hole cards. But i dont mind getting one of the first one either from time to time. It always makes me smile no matter how many cards i use gl for more in the future.

Wow, and those werent in all-in situations, it were hands played normally, both already with a big stack on your side, advanced stage of the tourney, and in both cases there are player who are sit out, funny. You always had to wait for the river to get the RSF, but it’s nice in the same. Can’t remember the day when it happened to me, and for what i still remember, it was only that single time.
