Play together online

Hi there Des or anyone else online.

How and where do I need to go to sign on?

I checked the link Des has on his first post and it only had a contact me which I have with the same questions.

Pokerstars, Bob.

Head here to download and install the software. Create an account, then follow these links in the window.

- Holdem.
- Tourny.
- Private.

You will see the OPSA tourny #3 in the list. It probably hasn't been created yet, check closer on Sunday. Tourny is 5.50 to enter, you'll need to deposit some cash.

Thanks Aaron. I already have Stars it's just that I never opened an account. My last experience with an online poker account was with Poker Champs.

It was a bit scary when they wouldn't release my funds as the US Treasury thought I was a Yank as I had AOL as a provider. I opened my account with $50 and built it up to just over $1,600 when they froze my account due to not paying taxes on my winnings LOL.

So when they wouldn't let me withdraw I started playing any event and kept losing. My theory was if I can't have it, neither can they, LOL. So, I got the balance down to around $830 by losing it to people I had made friends with.

Then they said they were transfering the funds back into my Bank account, LOL. Rotten bugga's coulda told me earlier LOL.

I remember you telling me that story at regionals, Bob. But you said $15,000. Maybe I misheard though. I was wondering how you got $15,000 Should've waited for it to all get sorted, mate. Or transfer it to a friend, and get them to give you $1500.

On topic: I registered for OPSA3. Everyone get on it! Great fun.

It's quite possible I said $15,000 as I had won some of it when I placed in a $15k tourney.

Hey I sent that many Emails to them and in the end it looked like I was getting nowhere. So, I decided to just have some fun and lose it to some of the UK players.

From memory after the US/AU conversion minus the bank fees I had just under $1,000AU transfered into my account. Twas a long time ago and the old memory bank is getting a little phased out lately.
