Despite a great run in the Micromillions Main Event on PokerStars that saw him finish with a third-place result for $59,480.98, 29-year-old Italian player "RuiDeck" has not yet been able to cash his winnings yet because his bank simply won't let him.
"I had only $11 on my account at PokerStars," the player told Italy's ItaliaPokerClub, explaining that he eventually managed to win a ticket to the $22 buy-in Micromillions Main Event through a 10 FPP buy-in satellite.
Once in the Main Event, the player scored the best result in his poker career with a third-place finish worth almost $60,000 in a tournament that attracted 20,000 entries and crushed the guarantee.
