All within a week's span:

1. Win a $80 home tourney with 40 players = +$1,200
2. Get a 12% raise at work = +$7,000 a year
3. Chop a Stars $5 rebuy (Wed. 6:30) = +2,200
4. Finish 6th in a Stars $11 tourney = +640

Got something to brag about, bring it....

Where is this juicy $80 home tourney? I was hoping to play some poker tonight but both Friday night games I know of got cancelled. I wanted to drive up to Seneca but couldn't find anyone to go with me /images/graemlins/frown.gif

I'll play. Did my taxes earlier this week and got a ginormous refund! Since last year I've gotten married, bought a house and my wife goes to school full time. Education Tax Credits are great. All in all fat refund for me =)

WOW! very nice. I made $150/hr casino whoring yesterday, and crushed the party 1/2 6max tables en route to clearing the bonus today, but no big scores like you. congrats.

Back to back to back final tables (smaller, ~150 person tournies, of course /images/graemlins/grin.gif).

I withdrew my whole online bankroll save $.52, then got bored and turned that into $100+ in 10 hours of NL play. I know this doesn't impress you pros but I suck at NL and am happier about this than I was about any actual achievement.

I think I'm up like 7k at 30/60, 4k at 15/30, and 7k at 5/10 NL. I've played on empire, party, pacific, UB, and pokerstars.

Yeah, right now I'm not looking into games over 30/60 online. I've done horribly in them the last few times I've stepped up, and I always wanna punch myself when I lose big in them. I don't know if they are tougher or I'm just a victim of a bad run in a small sample.

I've been married for a year and a half, still new enough to be getting it on an almost daily basis, so I don't feel a need to include that in my bragging post.

That is completely uncalled for. I've seen some sick things on this forum, but having sex with someone who's been dead for 6 years is pretty much the worst I have seen. Thanks for bringing up bad memories.

We have a 40 man tourney that myself and two friends run about every other month. We give people who play in the past the first opportunity to play, and usually the 40 seats fill up quick, but I will PM you in the future if there are open seats at one of the tournies.

I was playing against my bro in law online, NL holdem 10 handed on one table, Omaha 8b on another, and I took his whole role by getting quad 2's on each table and getting him all in on each table within about 5 minutes.

I've been making fun of him since.

Wrong forum (too much poker content).
