Congrats!

Decent prize. Way to go.

Nicely done!

Hey, if I use them all up on you there may not be any left for me..

Way To Go!

Nice wins HG! Some of mine can be read about at www.canadianpokerplayer.com if you're interested, as well as looking at older threads in the forum. There are threads of a lot of good finishes for a lot of posters here... Canadian poker is alive and well! To quote a t-shirt that Dave once mentioned he saw: "I'm Canadian and I defend my blinds" ;)

ps: That was an awesome hockey game. :canada:

i've had 2 small wins online, both at UB within a week of each other in late May......i didn't win a whole lot, but i tell ya, the feeling of finally winning a tournament after playing so many and trying to improve your play with experience...it feels damn good :).....and how small were they you ask? they were 1am 10+1 tournies with 77 people both times, and i won $242 each time

but it felt real good regardless, and i think it definitely helped my confidence a bit.....the most amazing part is that both wins were the first two times i ever reached a final table (what can i say, i had a habit of finishing just out of the money...i read a book strictly about tournies and it helped).....and after those 2 wins, even though i havent won since, i played a lot of tournies in June and had 1 2nd, 2 3rds and 2 4ths....quite nice to start making the final table semi-regularily

pales in comparison to winning a >1k in a single tournament like some of you, but i think its only a matter of time

Congrats! nice finishes! I am, uh, working on having the bell ring over here.

I guess this is what you had in mind harthgosh.

VN DH. When did that happen? How come we haven't heard about it, or seen any hands from it?

Nice work, Dick Hertz!

Dear JasonD76,

You finished the tournament in 1st place.
A $22.50 award has been credited to your Real Money account.


Congratulations!
Thank you for participating.

used the cash to play in a $20+2 with 550 people and busted out 205th :) Took one brutal beat that crippled me.

That win was from back in April of 2004. I wasnt a member of the forum yet.

harthgosh wanted posts of nice money finishes so i dug up my big win.

Judging from the tournament # harths pot limit win was back in march. Thats why I decided to post my win.

I will look back at my hands from that win and post some here later.

Nice wins man
