2nd final table this week...

1st win since February. I'm a cash game player, so I just wanted to let you guys know that I rely a ton on your knowledge of tournaments to fine tune my game. There's a tremendous amount of knowledge on this particular forum, and I just wanted to say thanks for the huge amount of help that the major posters have done here.

Here's the hand that really helped out on the final table:
