This should go in the victory thread thing but im just ecstatic right now. I chopped with 2 people in the $5 turbo tourney. I had 1.2 M, and first place got $1600 and change so i figured a chop would be the smart thing to do. Anyways its really weird i went from having a $160 bankroll wondering why i had a $160 bankroll and now ive got a 0 tagged into the 160. Its weird. I'd just like to tell everyone who likes playing MTT's and never seem to win or get unlucky keep playing and youll eventually get it. Lol, shit, before this i hadnt even cashed in like 10 tries :P, guess its my lucky day.

Nice one! It's always good to see someone win it big!
That means you're rolled for $50NL then. Moving up?

Thanks for the congrats
I don't play cash games, btw, so im gonna cash out around 1K so im not tempted to join the $20 or $50 tournaments in a blind fury.
1500 or so players by the way.
And thanks again still cant beleive it.

Nice win. Save the HH's and review what you did in this tourney that you may have not done in others. Overlook the lucky suckouts and flips.

He's rolled for $100 Pot Limit Omaha 8 as well. Now make sure you pace yourself and don't blow it.

Jishu for real, unless you REALLY need the cash (and you can't, as it's an unexpected windfall, right?), keep at least $500 in your account and play $25. It's barely harder than $10 and you'll learn more and make more money, and you can bonus whore.

Ive got around $500. Im a purely Sit n go and tournament player, i dont care for cash games. This is alot of money to me, and I didnt really feel like losing my head over it and starting to play tourneys and sit n go's that were too high stakes for me. Right now i just think i got lucky. If i win again ill believe im onto sometihng and ill move up to bigger tourneys and sng's. But this is just a saftey net for me i love playing holdem and the moneys just a nice little payback for my time.

Ring KILLS sngs. There is way more money to be made in ring!
Why dont you use the $500 to start playing and learning 25NL. I suggest to play full ring, but many play 6-max.

Will you be playing $22s or $11s? I'd certainly recommend the $11s at Party - they are just the right balance between loose idiots and weak/tight idiots.
I don't think winning another MTT should be either a goal or the required proof that you're a good player - even the best MTT players go hundreds of tourneys without winning one from time to time.

And I think you should at least *consider* bonus whoring as it's basically free money - I'm sure you can play a breakeven cash game without any trouble!
