It was good for you if you accepted that offer. You lost $ 2420 for the refusal to do deal but the time you can not get it back. See the interesting part of things and be happy. Congratulations for your good amount of and good luck in the future

very nice result for you,congratulation on winning!you could get much more,especially when you had first position and lot of chips and after this we see that deal would be great option for you!but probably you will make another result in next days and you will earn that amount!

Massive congratulations must go out to our fellow forumite StheP (Breakout Poker Nickrname: StheP1973) for finishing the $40,000 guaranteed tournament in third place and earning over $4,300! This is absolutely incredible! I look forward to hearing more success stories.

Now we can see why 888poker does not want to let him play there. They want to protect their existing players from him.
If it even could have been better, still a really good hit. And if you thought, the deal was not good enough, it was the right thing to decline, even if the decision didn't pay of this time.

when you know that you could have 2,4 K dollars more on your account,ofcourse you can regret,its not small amount and you could do lot of things with that extra money!but if you play a lot of poker there,you will probably earn this amount in this month!
