Can"t seem to get any screenprints to work but wanted to share my joy and utter jubilation at my greatest ever poker achievement tonight! I just beat 38,597 people in the Pokerstars Sunday Storm to win over $31,000 for an $11 stake! I"m supposed to be at work in about 2 hours but as I"m sure you can imagine, I haven"t slept a wink :-D
Was all the more remarkable when I pretty much got felted with 6 players left (AQ) on a A 2 A K board, all chips went in the middle, other guy had AJ and hit a jack on the river. It left me with one, yes ONE big blind! Got a couple of fortunate double ups and went on from there. Needless to say, I"ve had worst poker nights!!
-
Wow. Just wow.
vvvvvvvwp, mbn etc.
-
Oh Yes - tremendous achievement - nice one

Well played sir congratulations , thats boosted the bankroll a little . I dont think I would have been overly concerned about going to work in a couple of hours after, a day off would most definetly have been in order . Well done.

Thanks everyone :) Just about starting to come down now! My boss got phoned at half 7 this morning and a last minute "emergency" holiday was taken.
I"ve already been on to High Stakes Poker producers, see if there"s a spot in the new series ;D
Onwards and upwards is hopefully the plan, got plenty "sensible" plans for a large portion of the money but enough will be left to hopefully continue to build the bankroll. In the last month, I"ve come 3rd in a $40 tournie for $3,500, 3rd in $27 for $2,200 and 1st in a $55 for just under $5,000 so it"s been a month like I could never imagine!

Ha ha, c"mon Eck, give me some credit..... it was 5 high ;)
You missed an absolute belter later from him. He said out loud to all and I pretty much quote "I"m heading back to Australia in a week, not sure if I"m looking forward to it, gonna be hard to adjust to playing at a much higher level"
Pretty much insulting the entire table, how to make friends and influence people, ha ha. I bluffed him off a £300 pot later with King High as well, a sweet feeling at the best of times but 10 fold against him!

Anybody else going in this tonight now? Could be another APAT winner!
-
Lost internet last week and then with the forum problems I haven"t deen this until now.
Fantastic result Alan - well played.
-
Thanks Stuart :-)
Decided it might be a bit much to try and go through a 38,000 runner field 2 weeks in a row! So qualified for Sunday Million instead. I"ll settle for the same position as last sunday ;D
-
epic result, enjoy the money and yes, take a few shots at the majors
gl tonight
-
Just played for 6 hrs in a 4500+ field to finish 92nd, grand total of $40 profit, where"s the nearest McDonalds, you can get more flipping burgers
-
I managed 7191st tonight! Maybe next week is my week ;D
-
I notice the guy that got heads up with you Alan,- Dave Allen-, finished 3rd in the Sunday Million on the same night!

Wow that"s an even sicker run than mine! I can"t say I was impressed by him heads up, he must be doing something right mind you!
-
What was his name please?
-
Dave"s an APAT member also and I"m sure has played events with us.
-
We must be talking about different people Des, as unless he"s sneaky and trying to confuse people into how tired he may be, the Dave that was heads up with me was from Australia.
-
Ahh, different Dave Allen!
-
Some cracking results fair play, well done

I watched a replay of your FT and considering the cards you were dealt, an absolutely phenomenal result Alan VWD
