Man, do I suck at freerolls. PokerStars is having a promotion where you can bump your VIP status up a notch. Top 100 gets a silver star, and I'm doing pretty well - 200th out of about 1300 - when this happens:

CharginWapos said, "haha i am gold star already"
CharginWapos said, "fawk"
Quigolf: folds
CharginWapos said, "table going all in till i am out"

Of course, I get "wired jacks" THE VERY NEXT HAND. I figure its as good a chance as any to get some chips, so I limp, hoping he keeps his word:

He proceeds to go all-in the next four hands, but I can't watch any more.

Yeah, my normal game is going about as well, thanks for asking.

He laid an awesome trap if you ask me

[BassVillan]

did he say that before the hand was dealt? I'm thinking that he is/was a man of his word and just happened to wake up with a dec' hand on his first "freeroll shove". Too bad for you but you GOTTA call with the J's. I'm a gold star too and I've been thinking about doing this freeroll, what time is it?

[JoseRijo]

Yeah, he absolutely said it before the hand. Then he went on to push like 83o, T6o, stuff like that.

The gold stars had their own tournaments on Tuesday.
