Sick, that's something like 5000% ROI. Very nice score. I'm assuming you'll take the t$? Probably the wisest decision bankroll wise.

great results dude- you really kicked everyone's asses big time nice too another brm'er on a roll, hope to see more great news from you. so i guess u will take the t$? surely it's only your decision, but as retribution said, bankroll wise probably a bit to early to go straight to the $215. with a few more results like this- you'll be playing $215 tourneys in no time

You are getting good results. keep it up and good luck. Is it the same system in Poker Stars like in Full Tilt where you can convert the tournament dollars in real cash?

Great job amigo
I recommend you take the tournament dollars and go at it again
Just a quick question which is also meant to also inform.
Have you heard of... "sellyourseat.com" they are a site which will buy your tournament tickets and T$ for $USD. They do take a very small cut though. I think the last time I sold $215 worth of $T i got $210. Just letting you know in case you ever need to cash out some of them T$.
Ow and before anyone asked the answer is NO. I get nothing out of this. I am just trying to help out another BRM member.

You're doing very good uhhcallmi, i still remember facing you in some action around Yachting P. and now you moved to PS, that may mean you were feeling confident enough to face better players. And what better way to show you really were prepared than showing these results. You're doing great. You're winning nice money. Ok, this time you can still keep the money for more lower investments, but if you happen to get to the top again, go for one of those events, there you will face better skilled players and you'll see different poker being played at the tables. You will feel that knot on the stomach like the first time you played for money and you will love it, you'll see!

Excellent playing uhhcallmi so how are you going to handle this. are you going to play in the tournament or sale the T$ off? I seen your reply or comment, but why not take a chance on winning the big one. Good Luck no matter which way you go.

UHHCALLMI....Well done and a really good decision, though agree you have to play the Million at least once, all you have to do is convince yourself that if you bomb out you have nly lost the $1.50 that you bought in initially with and then its not so bad....if you cash in...welll....thats a winner!
