Default Winning first MTT - Thank you 2+2ers!

On Saturday night I played a $10 + 1 MTT on Stars w/ 1500 other players, and won!

I just wanted to thank all of you, especially the posters in this forum, for all of your help over the last two years. I have learned a lot about the game from your advice and insight posted here. I am mainly a low limit SnG player, and have especially enjoyed and learned from the weekly 2+2 games I have played (and watched Code play).

Speaking of Codewarrior, I must say that most of what I know about poker (and did during the MTT) was a result of the lessons he beat into my head over my four years playing online. My plays from position, to end game, and even reading players, were the result of his patient lessons. I couldn't ask for a better teacher, or husband [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Anyway, thanks to all. I look forward "seeing" all of you here and at the tables.

Good luck all!

TaxGoddess

Yes, I did a little squealing after the last hand. But what was funnier, I almost hypervenilated when it got down to 5 players, I just couldn't believe it, as I had never gotten to that level of payout before. I have placed (8th, 9th, 15th) a couple times in multis, but lower buy-in tourneys w/ fewer people so not as much money was involved.

It was fun, and I am looking forward to trying it again.

"Can I borrow $2?"

'Fraid not sweetie, I have already committed the funds to pay the taxes that we owe for 2004, and of course putting back some to cover the 2005 taxes on the winnings.

Sometimes it sucks to be a responsible American taxpayer...

Way to to, TG! I've never done well in multi tables. I just don't think I'm patient enough.
