Default \"Your Biggest Poker Accomplishment\" Thread...

whether cash/ring game, SNG streaks, MTT final tables and wins, etc.

my biggest poker accomplishment so far was making the final table of a 500 FPP Satellite to the weekly $215 NL Tourney.
seeing as how i'm a fairly new player (under a year of experience) with bankroll concerns, i chose the $215 Tourney Dollars and used them toward SNGs rather than play the tournament.

probably my last month 2nd place finish in a 1200 player tourney.

I've won a couple, but never with so little risk (10 bucks) with such a big field for such good money (1700) - so that's my best so far.

I won a 200 Person $30 +3 Tourney for over 1,500.

3 days later I won a 50 person omaha 20 +2 for another 300.

It was a nice streak!

Mine are.....

Stars $500+30 8th out of 600 for $7200
Stars $200+15 5th out of 900 for $9500

Both games were within 3 weeks. That was nice.

Taking a free $10 from Prima and putting some zeros behind it over the course of this last year.

becoming way less results oriented

and getting a couple of my college friends who had never played before to play in a home game. Without any book reading the majority of them are winning Party players within a year from learning the rules of the game.
