Thanks a lot guys!! I've used 300 points on this draw, usually I only buy about 100 so I guess it was the right timing hehe
I don't know much about how to use the points... Can I use them to get bonus cash on any poker site or can I only cashout via neteller and stuff like that (in that case I think I need 10K, right?)
If I can, Ill spend it to start a new bankroll, and try to manage it for once instead of just trying to double up
P.S. I've got a Torticollis, f**cken hurts when I turn my head to the left side! But I'll survive
Edit: Nevermind, I found all the infos I needed, TY BRM!!
------------ I just withdrawd 5200 points on Partypoker! I'll try to play mostly MTT and now I'll play my game all tournament long. No more nitting in mid tourny, lets start grinding

party is a good site to play, gl with your tournament grinding 50$ is gud return for 300 points and how did you get torticollis, not fatal but very troublesome problem. hope you get better.
Probably because of a bad resting position I guess! Hope it disappears on its own, if not I'll go see a chiropractor or Ostheopath tomorrow. I'm a massage therapist myself and I know massage is no good for this pathology. Needs rest + heat! I guess I can do that playing poker haha

Congrats for your win. You found the right moment to invest your points. Good luck with the money in Party Poker. Kick their butts I wish you all well with your health issue
Ouch!! I just finished almost on the bubble in a big freeroll on Mansion poker
It was a 1500$ freeroll exclusive to Rakebrains members who deposited in the last month, with only 95 players, 10 winners. 450$ to the first.
I was 6th on 13 with 10,5K chips, chip leader had about 23K. I get my first big pair in the whole tournament: KK, other than that, best I've had was AK suited and 8-8... So we're 6 handed. Some guy raises to 750 in early position (right after UTG). He has about 8,5K. I'm right before the button... I shove to make him think that I got some kind of AK AQ AJ or JJ 1010 99 something like that, hoping to get called by one of these hands. Of course the guy has aces, and they hold. Everytime im close to "big" money and playing well, I get a cold deck like that. This is why I always go back to ring games
Then of course, I lost the rest of my stack 4 hands later on the BB. I had Q-8 of spades and some guy limped Q-10 of diamonds UTG and we both hit top pair in heads up...
I'm not sure If I have the patience to play MTT. 21% flops seen to get destroyed like that, it's just rude... Maybe I need to play on more than one table at a time to make more moves or something cause everytime I see a good bluffing spot I hold myself back thinking "he might have it..." I stole some blinds and played very well in the big hands I hit, and value betted my way to a healthy stack tough. I really hate losing when I did nothing wrong like that, it's the part of poker I hate the most.

My cashout to partypoker didn't work for some reason. My username on partypoker is TheMachineQc and I also use the same e-mail. They say I supplied the wrong username or e-mail address wich is weird because I didn't have to write anything, all I did is check partypoker and click on withdrawal. My username was already written and I didn't have to confirm my e-mail address. So I sent a message to BRM support!
Anyone knows what could've went wrong?
EDIT: Forgot to mention, I did not play on partypoker for a while but my account still works! I updated my personal information, maybe that was the problem?

When I win on mobdraw I transfer the cash to Moneybookers, and deposit a half on titan poker to use a deposit bonus and a half I keep on account to use on international e-commerces...

Be careful with Party. Players' level is high. Of course its always nice to play against someone who really knows how to play, when to raise, when to try to rob, but it turns things dificult. Its always nice to have some donks around "trying to get three pairs" or something looked alike I really have to improve my poker skills to meet you guys at Party, till there perhaps you can join me and be one of the 5,000 in their freerolls
