Great job Pokerking, railing you right now!! Just in time to see the 2 big slicks in a row 3 handed
Seems like you're doing a great job winning pots without showdown which is exactly waht you need at this point. 1300 rebuys, pretty huge tournament!! I hope you finish first for that nice 1.5k, good luck.

Congratulations pokerking. I have read the posts saw the screenshots but cant really tell what was your finishing position But from the prize money i can see in the screenshots, no matter what you have made a profit from your buy ins. I really hope you go the first prize.
He even had a 3 to 1 chip lead in the heads up!! Came really close to sucking out with 910 against A9 for the win too lol. Not sure if I would've made that call but it would've been a good one if you were live and he could've had any ace or any K+ good kicker there. Other guy played good HU, was agressive and always had a hand when he needed to.
Did you guys have the option to make a deal during the HU after he doubled up? It could've been a good idea

Congratulations on your great achievement, now be smart and try play a 1 or 2 steps higher stakes tournament, if you succeed again you might be able to move up limits and stay at higher stakes ,which should improve your winnings...and most of all ,,fun in poker.
the fact you reached second place in an unlimited rebuy tourney proves you got pokerskills
What i try to tell you and all other mobsters is that taking a shot at a higher lvl once in a while is a save way to move up limits fast.
good luck at the tables and hope to read your next thread or reply.
p.s. : once i was a pretty active member of this great pokerforum...nowadays i'm still having a break from poker, but i've decided to bring high volumes again starting 1rst of januari 2016.
And here's the good news: i will be active over here again...missed you guys a lot

Second place after all. Very nice one. Unlike some other suggestions here, i wouldnt consider increasing the limits now. Better get what you can from the limits you are playing now, even lower, with different formats, buy ins, rebuys etc win some more and then increase. Wouldnt be a bad idea also cashing out a portion of it.

Who are you ? his wife............ only joking mober
and you are quite right.
Wife? give me 3 real good reason to have one and maybe I'll try to get someone lol
About cashing, canadian dollar are quite low so when I transfer from my bank account it cost me CAN $45 to have US $30 . the best way with less fee to transfer direct in US?
I'll let US $600.00 aside for 2016 and withdraw CAN $500.
