Congrats! Here's to many many more. (And to not letting variance get you down when it hits.)

Thanks. I realized after playing on the microlimits that some people do not take it seriously. Some of them say, "it's just pennies." So I jumped over to a SNG where at least most of them take it seriously.

I have played around 1500 hands in about 4 days. I did realize that playing too many hands all at once and only playing 20% of them really nags on your patience.

Congratulations.

And, just to make sure everyone is aware, there appears to be a new forum for brag posts and beat stories.

I won one today for the first time. At the final table I had triple everyone else's stack. Heads up was roughly 50k to 10k. I knocked out 5 or 6 players on the final table.

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't see that forum there, a new one I assume? I posted into this forum because that is where I have been going as a noob.

It's a brand spanking new forum, and I think it's a great idea to have a place for people to post on the topic.
