Tallyman 0 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 This may be a question some people don't want to answer for whatever reasons, but a fun question for people to read I think. The most money I've won so far in a tournament (playing for 2 months seriously now) is $232 dollars. I make it to the bubble quite often, but seem to get shortstacked quite often.

Tallyman 0 Posted May 8, 2005 Author Share Posted May 8, 2005 Well the biggest buy in i've played so far is 30 bucks. Usually I play anywhere from 5 dollar buy in to 15 dollar buy in. The one that I made some decent money in was only a 5 dollar buy.. Came in 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites

Tallyman 0 Posted May 8, 2005 Author Share Posted May 8, 2005 I play mostly MTT and Cash games at small limits. My bankroll I keep small, just cause I'm broke and can always use the money I win when I win . I'm thinkin of probly making a daily play at Pacific Poker for the daily 10k.

Bravado2112 0 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 I play mostly sng's and have won a few $200's (winner gets $1,000) as well as plenty of $100's (winner gets $500).I rarely get a chance to play MTT's due to time constraints but I've won 2 entries into Stars' $650 WSOP qualifier via 3 attempts in an $80 satellite. Probably end up being worth nothing other than the opportunity but we'll see... Link to post Share on other sites

TheIceman05 0 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 On Thursday, I played in a 50 dollar buy-in tourney (sponsored by a friend, since he owed me and would only pay me in poker buy-ins), 150 entrants. That's a 7500 dollar prize pool, but drinks were free so I was blacked-out by the third level. Next thing I know, I'm answering the phone, and my friend told me that I won 800 bucks from the night before. I think that's like 5th or 10th or something. I don't even know. I guess I was just blasting and reblasting at every pot, and got a hot run of cards about when I lost conciousness. People kept trying to pick me off, but I'd triple through when I woke up with AK or something. Supposedly, I actually was the chip leader at one point, but took a horrific beat. I was told I moved in on the flop with middle set, and somebody called with bottom pair, only to catch running hearts to take it away and leave me severely short-checked. That's the story. For all I know I robbed a bank and spent most of the money on hookers. I'm not sure what would be cooler. Whatever; that was awesome.Ice Link to post Share on other sites
