I came in 11th place in a poker tournament...

SSSnail

5000 players (7 days), $5M first place winner. My payout was $367,453 for being 11th.

I held 10 and Q of clubs, went all in and the bastard on my table covered me with 10 and K off suite. On the flop I got pair of Q's, chase a 10... the bitch got a K on the river.

Damn, too bad this is on my Blackberry... back to practice a bit more.

Anyhow, congrats on the big win.

I concur! 😛

Congrats on your poker win SSSnail, now buy me a :beer: 😀
 
The other player had a suite? If you had a regular sized room, there's obviously no way you could compete. Don't worry about it.

Seriously, though, congrats 🙂 You luckboxed real good!

nice congrats! what was the 1oth place purse? and what do you keep after tax?

Usually they pay you the full amount in cash. How much you owe the govt depends on how much gambling loss you have to offset that.

I'm still confused. You can play poker for real money on your blackberry too.

Don't those two lines make it obvious? Why would it be too bad if he was posting this while on his BB?

And he's obviously ducking for cover because the post was intentionally misleading. Have you guys not had your coffee yet? 😛
