I had a splash out ticket tournament that would expire yesterday. But i had some visitors and i could not play it so i decided that instead of losing it i enter the tournament knowing that i would not play and stay sit out. Never tought that a sit out could reach the money but later i logged in and had a message that i had won $0.30 enclose copy of lst few hands.

Nice. Surely better than nothing. If the players of a tournament are shove happy, something like that can happen, if the players sitting out are not taken out of the tourney after a fixed amount of time.

Nice one Pinotte. This happened to me a couple of times on FTP. Especially in the super-turbo's. It is amazing that it can happen, but you are proof it does. Well done.......

Nice outcome PINOTTE. I have just done this with a tourney that's about to start but in which I can't play, so let's see if I can do as well as you, or even better maybe. Oooops. Having registered a pop up is now saying the server at 888 is down again!

Hello my friends and fellow mobsters
Hi Pinotte that was a pretty surprising result and maybe a new tactical way of playing and cashing in at poker tournaments just sit out and let the others battle into there dead
Just keep on having fun and keeps posting those real good poker stories

You made the best choice there. You never know what can happen. And we all have seen, many times sit outs reaching the money, by hitting every time their all in hand In some sites though this can not happen due to different rules, like the freaking wincake
