PokerHost Rebuy Tourney Suckout

Awhile back I won around $50 playing in the PokerHost freeroll. Unfortunately in order to cashout they require you to have $125 (including deducting a $25 fee) so I am currently in a $10 rebuy and add-on tournament going big or going broke.

I bought in for 1500 chips and rebought for 1500 and built my stack to over 6K. With blinds at 75/150 some donk minraises UTG to 300 with AK and I repop to 1,050 with QQ

The flop comes 689

Villian checks

I bet 1,650 hoping he'll think I'm weak and he can take it away. He checkraise shoves with zero fold equity and I snap call and have him in a world of hurt.

Turn is a K and I go for the chatban by calling him a fag (what's wrong with British cigarettes anyway?).

Nice, some jackass called my 10 bb shove with A2 s00ted, he got there on the turn by spiking the deuce, but my rivered 6 resucked out for the win!

Ha, what a retard. Dork limps KT offsuit for 300, I make it 1200 to go with black Aces. Flop is Ten-high and all diamonds. He checks, I shove, he calls and doesn't even have a diamond to go with his top pair, I send him packing.

I'm in 33rd out of 83 players remaining

On the money bubble and I raise to 2400 (blinds 400/800 with an ante) UTG and a guy in the SB shoves for 10K more (which would cripple me if I call)

I fold and show pocket 8's, he shows his AQ of diamonds.

Blinds now 500/1K and I have 11K, so in shove/fold mode with one until the money

I raise from 1K to 2500 with 88, get shoved against by a guy with 25K, shorty also shoves for 9K and I get out of the way.

Big stack shows KK, shorty shows AQ and flop is 484, curses, foiled again!

whew, minraiser UTG and I ship for 14K with AK s00ted. Another player reshoves with pocket 8's, a blind reshoves with Aces, I flop the King which is no good but runner-runner the wheel to chop with the AA guy to remain alive

Lol, this retard who's been yapping in chat ALL f'ing game (complaining, insulting others, etc) raises UTG with 9J s00ted and gets cold-called by the chip leader who's over 100K in LP.

I'm in the BB with K9 s00ted and call with decent odds. Flop is QQT with two hearts (my suit, giving me the gutshot straight flush draw)

I check to the raiser, he half-pots for 6K, big stack folds, I checkraise all-in for 19K total and he calls with his open-ender, I am ahead and hold, hitting the 6 of hearts on the turn.

Now in 5th overall with 50K chips and 23 remaining

Argh, blinds hit 1250/2500 and I raise to 7500 with pocket 7's in EP. The SB shoves for 41K, the BB shoves for 16K and I get outta dodge.

Would've been up against AK and AJ and the flop is 46J........7........K and it would've been the PokerNations showtime!

Nice, guy limps Q7 in the SB, I check my 29 and we see an 89Q flop, he check-calls my half-pot bet. Turn is another 9 and brings a 2nd flush draw possible, so when he checks I shove and he thinks for a bit and calls. Doesn't hit the Q and I double to over 77K in chips, w00t!

13 players remain, final table at 10

Ugh, blind vs blind and we both see a flop of 44T with a 4 in our hands. We both slowplay until the turn, which is an Ace and brings a spade flush draw.

I bet pot, the BB minraises and I just call. River is a 5 and I check, he minbets 2500 and I just call. He has me outkicked, but because of the board we chop, phew!

He had me covered, that could've been a disaster. On the final table bubble

Back from the break, still on the final table bubble, I raise pocket 6's from 3K to 9K and get the BB cold-calling. Flop is 468 and the dork bets out 6K into the much larger pot, I shove hoping they overplay something, but no dice. Up over 90K now

Final table time, I'm 6th in chips. I need to finish at least 8th to have enough money to cashout (unless PokerHost comes up with some other ridiculous reason why I can't cash out once I can pay them a $25 fee to get $100 out, lol)

even at the final table these idiots are still limping TJ s00ted or minraising preflop, hilarious to see how awful these "final table participants" are.

Lol, and when I try to withdraw now it's like pulling teeth:

QUOTE

We received your last withdrawal request unfortunately it was canceled due to the freeroll restriction wasn't meet. So far you have $49.5 won from freeroll and there's a restriction for this funds

In order for players to withdrawal winnings from online poker freerolls, a requirement of $2 in rake per $1 won in the freeroll must be met.

If you have any further question don't hesitate and give us a call back to our toll free number 1-866-765-3711 or to our live chat.

Regards,

END QUOTE

So I just emailed the guy we set this event up with, since they're making it extremely difficult to take any money out. And I'm guessing after I rake $2 per $1 won I'll be told that I have to wait for every 3rd Sunday and then I can withdraw half a dollar if the moon is blue
