Nice ^^

I've done well in a few freerolls but no wins yet, however I don't really play much.
If you count Sit & Go's the best I've ever done is won a $30 SnG.

I regulally finish in the money at Ultimatebet, on the $2 freezeout on Noble - normally about 50% of the time I'll finish in the money at least.

Hi all :)

Hi all,
The Silencer shouldn't you have started it off with how well you have done yourself? Would be interesting to know seeing as you started the idea, I like it. Not had any big wins myself in multi-tables, won the $25 1st place at the $2 freezout at Noble, win $120 fairly regular at the SNG's.
Biggest win ever? Was at intercasino, not the poker room though, hit $2,000 playing video poker 10 handed, hit the 4 deuces all the way up, was a great day.

Last night got 1st in an Ultimatebet online Tourney and just received the freeroll for next week...
But on Sunday, I played a live tourney down in FL that had 450 people with a 45 dollar entry fee... and I placed 23rd. Only got 70 bucks, but my neighbor placed 8th and got 800 bucks.. so we had a good night on the town. heh.

I finished 4th in a field of about 2200 players @ Ultimatebet and made 3 other final tables. But those were in freerolls so it means nothing. i havent yet tried real money.

Also i made the Sunday TEC final 4 times. I wish i could get a bankroll going and play real money.

Well I play to many tourneys to list all but my most notable ones are as follows:
At Pokerstars:
Cash Tourneys in the past 6 mos.
2nd out of 720+ players in Omaha Hi/Lo $1.00 buy in won about $100.00
3rd out of 1450+ players in NL Hold Em $5.50 buy in won about $633.00
3rd out of 2000+ players in NL Hold Em $1.00 buy in won about $170.00

Freeroll tourneys at Pokerstars
over 6000 players i've finished in the top 20 at least 30 times in the past 6 mos.
top 10 at least 10 to 15 times in the past 6 mos.

At Bugsys Club:
Won 1st in at least 10 different WSOP warmer up tourneys.
Finish in money at least 80 percent of my tourney play there.

Full Tilt Poker:
Won 1st place there at least 3 times in their freeroll in the last 3 months
A few other times I've finished in money.

Ultimate Bet.com:
I play there everyday all day long too many tourneys there for me to list but the majority of the time I finish in the top 50...I jus found out this month that I've been listed on their Top 500 Tournament Leader Board Players List for the past few months. I mostly play sng's there and low ring tables...I play about 2 to 3 tournaments a day there.

so thats jus a brief summary for me the last few mos. actually my game has been a bit off since thanksgiving due to an injury but i'm slowly getting my game back and hopefully will be playing in higher levels again very soon.

gla n hope to cya at my tables,
Sweetestdream

I have finish 3 and 6 in bonus dollars freerole and a coulple times in the lower levels where you win less then 2 bucks. I won first in an ultimate points tourny and qualified in the money one other time. I love playing the huge freeroles tourneys and to see how long I can last.

My biggest win updated

I have just win second in the freeroll celebrated from here and i won 12.50 dollars so at least im progress already.the freeroll was in Ultimatebet and the most funny thing is that a person that never showed up get into the final table hahaha that was funny but hey i am going to tell the truth.I was a little scare of him because I NEVER SEE HIM PLAYING A SINGLE HAND!!! i think he was just waiting for the best hand lol.The ones that i beated with luck i feel really sorry but i was in a rush my connection was starting to fail me I hate dial up.Good luck all next time hope to see all later.

As I dont play real money games on Ultimatebet I only play the freerolls
I regularly make the TEC finals on a Sunday but am yet to win a TEC chip
I either Earn bonus dollars on a regular basis or am one of the first knocked out. But hopefully by gaining some knowledge from all of the people here at the Forum that could all be about to change lol

Best I've done was 14th or so in a 2500 person freeroll on Ultimatebet. Saddly I went from #1 in chips, which I'd been in for most of the tournament, to bust in the matter of 10 minutes. I definetly dropped the ball on that one.

I've had pretty good success with the Sit n Goes on Ultimatebet though. I generally play those until I get some cash or points for a multitable tournament.

Hi Guys ,

i've won twice at casino.net , twice the AbsolutePoker Freeroll and some in the Places. My biggest one was at PacificPoker where i finish on 1st at a 2.50 buy - in and i cash 150 $....

But i am trying to collect this small ones to buy myself into bigger ones where you really can do money.

I'll learn in the moment and in a couple of weeks i'll play some Big Tourney's and we'll see what's the result.

I'll keep you posted. lol
