I tried to get a screenshot of the last hand, but I hasn't fast enough to capture it.

This is only the third tournament I've played since just prior to Black Friday when Bush was president. BitOnLine accepts bitcoins, and that's what I'll use to cash out once I pump it up on live games and perhaps more freeroll tournaments.

My assessment of the site thus far is that it runs pretty smoothly. I'll assume it's on the up-and-up, but will have to do some research in that regard. I've seen some crazy turn and river cards, but that doesn't freak me out as it does other players. In fact, the more they cry, the more they're telling me what type of player they really are.

Further proof, unless you think I'm capable of Photoshopping the above images.

Congratulations! What was your last hand then?

I think you should move the thread to "gambling", you'll get more attention there and at the same time advertise the site.

I honestly now don't remember my last hand. I think it was J / 9 hearts, and I beat him with high cards, no pairs. I tried to get a hand history, but that's only for those who bet real money. I was in a freeroll.

I thought off-topic would be good enough for this thread, for my intend wasn't to funnel customers their way, albeit I mentioned it. I just wanted to brag, is all.

I was never over $20K in chips when I reached in-the-money at 40th Place. I figured then I was a soon goner, not getting to 20th Place for the two dollar prize, but they started dropping like flies and I got lucky on a hand, so I squeaked into that position. Same true to get to the final table. Once there, the next goal was 5th Place. Once I reached that, I started playing a stronger selective aggressive, always mindful of the other players chips count and who was most vulnerable to exit next. One of the last ten hands, I trapped the remaining player with pocket aces via smooth calling his bets. After that, it was only a matter of time before I had all his chips.

At one point in the middle of the tournament, I played an excellent situation that just happened to pan out in my favor. The losing playing called me a donk. I thanked and told him both my parents were monumental assholes. He soon went broke after I put him further on tilt. As a whole, I don't comment while I play, but it's an excellent tool if used to your advantage.

At poker tables they usually call someone that when a player goes 'all in' on every hand not caring about the consequences :D. It usually happens at free-rolls where people are not worried about losing any money.

Congratulations on your win! I have never played there but I am gonna see if they have browser based poker rooms because I don't usually like to download stuff.

And you should definitely move this thread to Gambling, so others get to know about this Poker Room and try their luck there.

Congrats on your win, you must be a good poker player.

The site seems very good, and attractive with many freerolls.

What I dont like from this site is that there are too many personal information should be filled on registration form

Unfortunately I could not register since my country is not listed.  :(

Congratulations.  Some of the best online players started with $50-$100 bankrolls.

Actually, I'm better than 1000x that many, but that's all that opted to take me on that night.  ::)

"Damn, that Phinnaeus dude is one awesome player! Tosses pocket rockets preflop, then bluffs with 2-7/off."
