No one here blames the site for this mistake. It was totally on your side And of course you would have been happy winning it, like everyone else. But you could have tried asking a small compensation from them (not demanding) for your mistake

Yeah I kinda disagree tbh.
Stars deliberetly set it up as they do with the $100 button so close to the register knowing people will do this. They make that choice and could keep it way apart.
My argument would be that it isn't fair that they do that.
I wouldn't expect them to refund the ticket but sites DO give bonus and free tokens etc when people complain about this stuff

The button of 100$ is indeed very close to the registration button, but someone would think, that this is too lame. for a site like Poker Stars to pull something like this to get people's money in a tricky way. But i agree with you of asking for something back. You are the one after all that has proved, that a bit of whining in this section pays You have got a couple of compensations like that if i remember right.

haha yeah I get loads
I also don't keep money on sites and only deposit to use a promotion. every deposit I do live chat and ask what they can offer me to deposit. usually get something 888 is the best for that

Dont they ask you for playthrough, for the tickets or the winnings you get from them? You just deposit for the offers, and then cashing out, when you are done with the tickets?

Posted by pinotte: I agree with crash i made a mistake PokerStars have nothing to do with it. If i had win the game or spin a very big amount and win i would have been very happy making the mistake but i lost and paid for. I just have to blame myself cause i did not look at what i was doing.
To resolve your problem, you can use a bigger screen with higher resolution.
Thats why I use 3 screens setup One is too old to get a higher resolution so on that one I have the same problem.

Some do, some don't.
The key is to press them for tickets rather than a bonus. As a general rule bonus' nearly always carry a play through and tickets rarely do.
