I'm new-ish..so I just found this thread..here's my contribution to the "shameless bragging". I can't give you the HH because after my big one I bought a new computer..but a copy and paste of the 'dings' from thepokerdb.com accomplishes the same thing (I hope)

Tournament/Event Buyin+Rake Place Entrants Winnings
Well this is nowhere near some of the big wins but like some have said a win is a win...and I have gotten a lot of tips from people on this site so it appears it may be paying off. I played 3 SnGs yesterday and cashed in all of them and took this one down

Well this is a funny one. Nothing big in the money department but whats funny about it is I thought it was a NL Hold'em. It was early AM and I sign up. The dealer starts and I am dealt 4 cards??? What the heck is going on? Oops its Omaha so a quick search with google to read basic Omaha strategy as this is the first time ever playing it and this was the result...prolly beginners luck!!

Just a little 'ding' won a seat in the 30k satellite on Paradise. Only my second rebuy tournament ever..I'm feeling pretty good about it! (practising for G2's tourney tomorrow)

another little 'ding' ..I won the $5 rebuy on APlady last night. Just under $500for first.
Posting it because I wanted to thank G2 (if you read this)for hosting the rebuy last week- I didn't play them before your tourney(this was rebuy tourney #5or6 for me), and am really enjoying them...THANKS!

I"m glad your enjoying the rebuys, I'm personally not a big fan of them but I like g2's cuz you never even have to look at your cards to know you'll get 3 callers minimum on a push.
Hopefully this is the start of something good. Last night I qualified for the seat 7 final for FCP's protege tourney. After missing the final table the month before by blowing a large chip lead. Also last night I qualified for a qualifier to go to play the Aussie Millions. I hope I see travel in my plans. It sure feels good when you outplay almost 1,000 people to end up in the top 5.

This is a tiny ding but it is big for me. I usually play 6-person $10 SnGs so I can't win big in those obviously, just little bits at a time.
Tonight I entered a 90-player $10+1 SnG on Full Tilt and won it for $225.
This despite the following wacky hand in the middle of the tourney:
AA (me - bigger stack) vs KK (med stack) vs TT (small stack) - all-in preflop
Flop: 4 J Q (I'm still ahead)
Turn: K (for the set of Ks!)
River: 9 (TT hits the straight!)
Fortunately I had them both covered but it knocked me way down (I almost went broke just to get in the money and then hit some serious hands after that).

Lol. "The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters"
Does this new software h8 acronyms or what?
What is the point of having 'Quick Reply' then?
