Hey All
Just a little party poker story regarding today's events..... First off i will let you all know i won a $10 tourney ticket from Bankroll Mob - wooop
Now i played 3 $3 6 man sit n goes tourneys and 1 head up $1 tourney in which i won 2 $3 sit n goes for $19.80 already happy....
Now the interesting thing happens over the next 4 hours... i played $0.02/0.04 rush poker and ended my days session $37.89 in my bankroll...
Now i decided to risk $15 playing $0.25/0.50 rush poker... Now being totally honest i just wanted to take a risk and blow $15 as the money was free........ After around 100 hands playing i was up to $33.47 on my table i pressed the sit out on next big blind button.,. which as we know will sit you out when you hit the next big blind.,. 2 hands later still waiting to hit this big blind i hit QQ and made a standard 3 bet of $1.50 and recieved 2 callers im ready to fold..... (cut off - dealer called BB called)
The Flop came 8d 7d 2h BB checked... I (Me) Bet $4 Dealer Callled $4 BB bet $16 I pushed all in for $33.47 Dealer Called BB raised all in (I think lucky twat has only got 88 77 22) Dealer calls Turn Qh River 3H BB turned over A9d I turn over QQ Dealer turns over 93d I win my biggest pot ever of $103.67 Damn what a story..... $15 - $103.67 Now my bankroll sits at $0 after i withdrew it all.,. not messing with party poker specially after the luck i had

That's some great luck you had there! I've been playing at PartyPoker all the time I've played poker and I have to say that the competition isn't all that great. I'm not complaining, it's good for the better players. But this also means that some donks would have made that bet and call with a hand like K7 hearts. So you was lucky he didn't hit a flush.
Still, great way to get some extra cash, well done!

SMITHY....... Forgive me but Indont get the link between your thread title and the success story that you tell. I am very pleased to hear your progress and good firtune or good play but how has PP been ruined? I am at a loss........ alternatively I am tired at the end of a long day and am missing a very simple point!
Nice work there with QQ congrats i finished 2nd in the Canadian 20 point special last Monday night turned 20 Party Points into 102 but your right about the Donks plenty of them on Party Poker for example i was playing .02/.04 cent Fast Forward Poker and got dealt AA and shoved my 5.64 and got called by A4 off-suit wtf lets do the odds on that one AA vs A4 off i must be 90% pre flop and wouldn't you know it a 4 high flush hits on the river i was expecting KK or some high pair but i guess that's poker and anything can happen anyways congrats on the win
I also won 10Ts and went on partypoker to play some heads up sit n goes but I can't find any SnG? I tried resetting my filters, I guess the problem is on their side but it seems weird.
About your hand, I don't understand, there was two 9d in the deck?
"BB turned over A9d I turn over QQ Dealer turns over 93d"

G'day mate
Well if what you claim is true then the other players at the table all have grounds to ask partypoker to refund their loses. Using the hand history as proof that the software had a malfunction. The site could try and have you redeposit the cashed out funds back into your account and reclaim them to give back to all the players. If you was to refuse to give the money back they could issue a permanent ban on your account. Mostly this will not happen but it could in theory. best wishes to you merry xmas be cool

Great story, and many congratulations to you on this truly great run on the tables. It is always good to hear these kind of stories and to turn this free money into something more substantial is a great achievement

Great story I always like to hear about those hit and run stories when it works. You got some free money tried your luck got a nice run and a nice boost of cash and have the discipline to withdraw them and get a boost to your money.
Wish I had your luck when I get free money I tend to lose them all, aI try to hit and run but most of the time it does not work.
Keep your winnings safe and invest it properly cheers!!

Gratz, really nice run and a nice 100$ Christmas extra gift! I´ve won nothing at brm promos in the last years, only some extra shots for nothing. But this Story gives me new Motivation to try the next shots in the future.

By reading the title thought of all sorts of stories than the actually you said. First i thought the site went down, then by reading the first lines though you blew it all off. But as it looks like you had a blast and made a nice profit. Well done.

I think the title inferred that he ruined PartyPoker by taking all their money out.
Although, I have to say that when I read the title I thought the same as you did, especially the site crashing. I've had a lot of problems with that on PartyPoker in the past. Haven't played there very much recently though, so it may have improved.

Well i left £4 ($7) im now up to £40 ($70) Damn what a good 48 hours playing party poker And as i type im in the top 200 of a tourney dollar giveaway which im guaranteed a whopping $3 tourney dollars - im hoping a final table cash and hitting $85 first prize wish me luck
Of course you shouldn´t play slots, why would you gamble on a machine, that returns only around 95% of the cash you stick in? That doesn´t make sense...
