Poker Stars Tournament Results - 1st Place

Every once in a while, I feel the need to share results
with my subscribers to prove the claims that are being
made.  Here's results from a tournament I played just
recently, to show you how the combination of Poker Sidekick
and my Secrets of Winning Sit & Go Tournaments e-book
really do work. 

In case you're not familiar with these reports, my Poker Stars
handle is "Josey Wales" in the hand history below.

I started the tournament at around 11:15 a.m. and finished
up a little over 30 minutes later, as shown below.

As it indicates on the Sit & Go webpage, using this system
I routinely place in the money around 50% of the time and win
1st place around 10% to 15% of the time (like this time).

Sit & Go Secrets:  http://www.poker-sidekick.com/sit_and_go/

Enjoy.  Good luck!

Rick
