How long does it take for pokerstars to send you the money in trade for unregistering from a tourney I won into with FPP's?

About 0.00001 seconds 🙂.

You don't get it as cash though.
You get it as $T which are tourny dollars. you can use them to buy into any sng or mtt or you can trade them with other players for real cash, which is what I do.
The amount you have is shown below your mailing address, to the left of your Frequent Player Points balance.

LOL, just noticed the $11 Tourney $. Anyone want to trade for cash on stars?

Villain is 14/7/2 over a large sample.

Pisses me off that he doesn't stack here!

He actually used his timebank before calling. I really think was considering laying it down! 😱

I doubt he was considering folding, probably raise or call. And I agree that him shoving here would be pretty spew. Also why didn't you cbet that flop?

I thought you could convert for like 5%

I did to, but I couldn't find it!🙄

Not at Stars. You have to use a 3rd party like PSmoney.com to convert them. (or just sell them to one of your friends.)
 
Weee

You guys have no idea how badly I needed a hand like this one

I've lost I think it's 18 big hands in a row, most of which I got the money in good

I thought I was doomed after they both went all in but there's no way I could fold. Pretty scary turn and river too
 
See... I knew it was just a doomswitch.

I cleared my bonus and am up +4 BI's in the last 2 hours

+9 BI's today counting the bonus 😀

very nice seanyj!!


OK...so this is totally unrelated...and it might have something to do with the fact I've been up playing poker all night (yeah it's 4:30 AM here) but I've been laughing my head off at this video for the last few minutes.

Maybe it's cause I have to deal with people who have about this much of a grasp of mathematics somewhat regularly, but I figure you guys might appreciate it.

Ok that's hilarious.

Do you get that there is a difference between half a dollar and half a cent?
--Definitely

Do you get that there is a difference between .002 dollars and .002 cents?
--No
