I never have played any tournaments, I play ring games, mostly $3/$6. A friend ask me to play in a 22 man $100 buy with $100 rebuy/add on in a local game.
I get second for over $1000. Then win $160 more in the 10/20 cash game after.
Not great, but was nice for me |

it's not huge, but I won 3 SNGs in a row.
Plus, £150 ($300) for 11th (ouch) in a 500 person MTT.
My game is really coming together, and I'm excited. To use a popular phrase round here...
WOOT |

I won my first MTT. Only a $3.00 + $.30 Freeze out
76 Entrants... 10 places paid.
My take: $68.40
My first final table. My first win! Awesome. Crap Winnings but still very very awesome.
Definately with the help of RippTyde's Tourney advice. I had a large stack at the final table, so I ccould see lots of flops.
Winning hanc 3d4d when the flush hit the board on the turn. My opponent tried to rep it, but I took it down. AWEsome!
-----------
Just reread my post, I say awesome a lot. what a dork! |

Tournament Played: $5 + $0.50 3 table MTT at PokerStars. No rebuys
Winnings: $50 - buy = $44.50
First tourney win online.
I've placed about 40% of the time though.
Once I even MacGyvered my way into 3rd in a limit toruney, and I have no clue as to how those should be played. |

Not a big win but yesterday $5 Rebuy + Addon on Prima.
I did not rebuy or addon once, came in 8th. First FT EVER!
Winnings $55, not too bad couple mess up on the second to final table threw me off but I've learned from my mistakes. |
