Hi, my name is Siarhei, I play at PokerStars – nick Azrarn (Belarus). Probably, I played with many of you. Many players don’t like me as they consider me weak or vise versa. But it’s time for me to ask German FL community for help.
In 2012 I played $1/$2-$3/$6. But in the end of the year I chose a goal, probably, very mad and adventurous – to get SNE with a positive actual profit. Many strong regulars of Russian community couldn’t believe it’s possible and offered betting versus me. So my marathon to reach this incredible goal started.
I posted all daily results (more than 280) in my blog in the Russian community of PokerStrategy.com:

This year was very difficult. I’ve played 8-10 hours of exhausting game daily, nearly without days off. And even in the hardest days I felt I must keep going at all costs. I thought: “My main goal is Supernova Elite and I’ll reach it anyway!”
By December 13 I had 953000 VPP. I only needed 47000 VPP (about 8-12 days of play). But some unknown user found an old post in my blog. In that post I told what HUD layout I use. And there was a picture with many hands on the opponent. There was a complaint in the poker room, that I use hand histories (mining).
My account was blocked. I contacted support at once that I really used mined hands that I had deleted. I also had no warnings about it before.
Besides, I’ve played more than 800000 hands this year. In Fixed Limit there are not so many players, especially higher than $3/$6. So I had a huge own database at my disposal, and additional hands hardly gave me any advantage. So blocking of the account turned a big stress and a good lesson for me. But then security team gave me even harder hit – my account was banned for 6 months.
I don’t ask PokerStars to alter their decision, I ask only to give me a chance and postpone the punishment till the end of the year, so I could reach my dream-goal and become Supernova Elite, even if I’ll lose it during the ban-time next year. Just 15 days of respite.

Please, support my post. Thank you in advance.
Kind Regards,
Siarhei “Azrarn”
