Anyone else having a great week (Warning, bragging included)

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 [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

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'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.

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.

cool. i was just wondering if you were playing on any of the euro sites or the 50/100 stuff or whatever. i'm too lazy to find crap like that.

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.
