You couldn't complain about turning a PokerStars freeroll into NZD$35,150 and that's exactly what John Waterman has just done.
The end of Waterman's tournament life started when Marcel Schreiner opened the pot to 40,000 from the button. Waterman was in the big blind and he raised it up to 140,000. Schreiner then moved all-in, having Waterman well-covered. Waterman made the call and the two would turn their hands over.

Waterman would need some help that would never come as the 
board ran out and he was sent to the exit in 3rd place with a staggering NZD$35,150. And all from a free tournament on PokerStars!
