I deposited to pokerstars 10$, registered to 5k guaranteed and placed 2nd. I had to be first, but il'l tell you the heads up story. I was chips leader. Got AQ off, the oponent raised, i reraised. He pushed all in, i call. He showed A2 off. Flop nothing, turn nothing... River - deuce. The next hand i floped high pair with a good kicker, the oponent pushes all in, i call and he shows two pairs. That's my story of first tournament in Pokerstars

Yeah, pretty nice, tried it a few times, but somehow pokerstars always gives me the worst cards ever, although I like the site. Don't you just hate it that after 40 hands you still haven't had just 1, just ONE, that was or could have been a winning hand.

Posted by m0n0: sorry, but i'm a bit sceptical... $1200 for 2nd in $5K guaranteed???? how much did 1st pay? how many ppl played? a screenshot/stats maybe?
nothing personal...
Perhaps the prizepool exceeded the guaranteed sum ?
but don't make the mistake and go to
