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).

Enjoy. Good luck!
