G'day mates
Well I finished in the exact same position tonight as I did in friday nights game. I placed 9th dang it. I was really disappointed by all the bad river suck outs which I seen happen over and over. I suffered 5 loses to river suck outs and even hit one myself when I had pocket jacks when I rivered a jack.
So I now have like $30 on the site. I played the ring tables last night for about 5 hours and made a little money then lost it in one bad beat hand to a Russian. lol go f'in figure

Ronin,
You seemed to have had the worst of it last night. Also it seemed no good hand would hold up. You were also unlucky against me. Shortstacked with less the 10 BB I shoved over the top of your raise with A10s, I knew you were raising good hands but I had to shove there. You turn over AK and well that's me gone, I still can't believe it was a split pot even now!. Funny thing was as that didn't really help my short stack, I get A10 again 2 hands later and shove from the button and get called by the BB, who shows (You guessed it) AK so there is me thinking gotta go this tiime but a lucky 10 saves my bacon. Ironically I get a legit hand in the final table raise to 3x some guy shoves so I go all in expecting AA I have KK he/she shows AJ but rivers a straight!
So ended up one better than Friday in 7th but pleased to have made 2 final tables.
Hit Pokerstars after that and the fun continued, AA loses to KQ AK loses to AQ, KK loses to QQ so 2 buyins down I fear the poker gods are trying to tell me something and I quit for the night.
------------ Just tried to withdraw my ill gotten gains and I am getting an error ...

Hi all, i enjoy this game a lot and i finished 17th, earning $16. About the test game, it didn't went very well, i got late and i took a bad decision entering all-in post-flop with A6 with A8x flop, and my opponent had A8. About the main event, i'm one of those who's always saying we shouldn't care about the values, but i was always looking to see when would i be among the prizes, and that made me lost a lot of chips just to guarantee a reward. When i tried to recover, it was a bit late. I even consider i had a bit of luck with a 99 against AK: flop xKx, turn K, river... 9!!! It seems this happened a lot during the game, after reading other posts here!

Today i tried to withdraw my €12,16 winnings from BRM Xmas event and, after giving all the data from my bank acount (IBAN, BIC and stuff), i got this message: Withdrawals - User's VIP level is not valid. I thought this wouldn't be a problem, taking in consideration all that was agreed...

No point building a bankroll you can't withdraw!
18 hours and no reply to my email to support regarding withdraw problems, not good!
I get the same error message as reported by Fakiry "User's VIP level is not valid"
Anybody withdrawn from this site who only played the Freeroll and who has not made a deposit?
