As per title, i was playing this earlier and just as i hit the front with 12 players left, one of my sons phoned me and asked if i could pick him up. Well like the good dad i am i went to get him I got back and i was in 4th out of 4, i managed to get back in front and then heads up this happened so i finished 2nd.

Aver nice return on your investment here. The last hand was a bit of cold deck,, you flopped a set and he flops the second nut flush draw, so the chips were always going all in there

Massive congratulations to you on your runner-up finish in the $100 guaranteed tournament at PokerStars. You've made a good return on your investment. I am looking forward to the day when I will be reading your another success story — soon, very soon!
You really good dad and son means more to you than poker .... but it seems to me that this is normal action for the father: when the son asks for something, help him ... to help him .... eventually a good result .... I congratulate and Good luck with the game

nice story there and a 2nd place finish to show for it as well, but i would really like to see how nice dad you would be if you were playing in wsop main event with 12 dudes left and received that call ... nice comeback though, keep up the good results.

Gratz for your winning, nice comeback and a winning of nealy 30 bucks are really good for a buyin of 2,20 and a playing time of certainly 4 hours. But i'm not sure, was this allowed or not, that your son plays for you Anyway, good game

You should thank your son, for the win you got. If it wasnt for him, you could have been kicked out, much earlier before the money Congratulations, a nice result. Better luck next time with the bracelet
... nice comeback though, keep up the good results.
