... < ...So I've been playing the 'The Grand Hand' Lucky All In shootout tourneys over at 888Poker every day for weeks and weeks by buying in for ten gold coins, and sometimes not winning anything, and winning some prizes ranging from .60c up to $14.60 for a total of about $52.00USD....
Congratz on the win I have played every single one of these with biggest cash being $9 888poker is good with always having some interesting promotion. I won a $33 big fish ticket with zero risk from a free buy freeroll tournament.

Yes this.is.a wery big prize money ro me, 174 dollars is a lot for poker for small stakes players. If keep this for a.bankroll then it is solid and you can play tournaments of 2-3 buyins, or sngs or cash for small stakes
very cool ... I congratulate you on a wonderful win .... I also often win in this tournament but I have the maximum result that is about 4 dollars ... I was also on the final table of the freeroll the day before yesterday ... I took 8th place and got 4.90 dollar ... and then in the game, sitngo raised to $ 40 ... and then lost everything

You had to use all your knowledge to play these games A very good finish for a very nice amount. And all that by being lucky, winning one all in after another. And then some complain that going all in after all in in a tournament, doesnt pay up Congratulations.

It's a nice win but it is very far from being enough for a complete bankroll. Even for a small stakes player needs more to get through times when variance eats up almost everything... Congrats to demo.

Congratulations demodawggy, what a nice prize! And...week by week...how many golden chips you had? It cost 50 golden chips for a week, you have to be a high level partner of 888 club. I spend my GCHs in these kind of tickets too, but I prefer to play the $6000 Grand Hand turbo tournament, because in the all in tournament I played in four time and losted in three...

How many times have i taken place in such tournaments in the past. Never got anything good out of them. You need to be extremely lucky to reach the money, and even more to hit the final table, where the good payouts are.

Of course, but you first must go: a) to the bar with perogys, or b) to my grandmother, which makes you tonnes of perogys and then she will tell you why you eat so little , or c) to the perogy-country
And $174 means ~643zl, which means you can afford over 18kg (or over 320 pieces) of perogys! I check the price table of one of the Polish Pierogarnia (yes, we have in Polish bars only with perogys in different forms)

Another good idea for make some changes in the page. I telled in the another thread, we need to do a thread for acumulate these good ideas, like: the Bank Roll Mob Exchange, for shots, points and tickets; the windows where you could write the number for the Mob Safe, and don´t do it withe the current sistem; the daily five threads aceppted, instead the 24h between threads....and much more of them!

^^ It would be nice, if Admin could make a thread (maybe sticky or something) to collect posts with inventions, ideas, etc. And it will be clean and tidy.
