I love playing tournaments!! I live for them. On Ultimatebet the best i ever got was 2nd place in a freeroll. On jetsetpoker I've gotten 1st in headhunter tournament,1st in a few freerolls ( all cash) and also on jetpoker 1st in a paigow (cash). I do habe my share of winning. Depends on my mindset on how well I do,among other things. Also I pokerhost I won a acouple of cashmoney freerolls. With each tournament I learn and I do get better.When I bust out early or when I have a bad beat, I sometimes get hard on myself and/or replay hands over and over....then on to my next fix, another tournament!

The best I have placed is 11th out of 4500. 2 spots away from winning a seat to another tourny. Very short stacked at the time. Should've been out much earlier.

Working my way up

Online Poker different then looking someone in the eye and trying to figure out the hands. Here you have to trust the computer to be dealing fair (HA) and see if anything you can pick up about the habits of online players.

Do they bet fast or slow when they have a good hand, or a bad hand.

Do they raise all the time only to fold later and maybe win a pot every now and then, but this just drives up the pot and skill goes out the window.

So much to watch for ya know.

I play mostly freerolls at PokerStars. 6,0000 people is alot to start a tourney. On six occasions I have finished in the top nine but have never done great at the follow-up money tourney you qualify for. I did make $1.50 yesterday in a freeroll where I finished 22nd. Now I have 19 cents.

I am always doing good in the private freerolls. Some of mine are 3 out of 500., 6th out of 300, and 10th out of 50 on a big one. I also came in 9th in a 50FPP tourney on Pokerstars. It had 1000 people in it

sit n gos are the way to go hehe

i've won a couple 30 dollar one's which pay pretty nice with 9 ppl

1 18 person for 10

a bunch of 10 dollar 9 ppl sng's

and a bunch of 1on1 tourney's for 5, 10, and won my only 20 dollar match game

i avg about 80th place in 500-1000 ppl tourneys

200 and less maybe 30th...best i've taken was 5th..

i'm kinda new to tournaments online....i think i'm way better in real life..i'm usually chip leader until the final table which i'll get crap cards and get re-raised and blinded til i get knocked out lol but i usually do well

overall i'm probably close to even...blah! if i'm lucky i'm up 10 bux ha!

love touneys

Best I have done was last week at Pokerhost. Tourney started at 3:00, I had to be at work at 7:30. Figured since I never done well I should be going to bed soon. I end up with 110,000 in chips going one on one with someone else and lost took second out of 355. The thing that sucks, it was a 3 team parlay where only 1st place was awarded the prize of 50 dollars from another online gambling sight to bet a trifecta. Second got nothing. By the way Tournament ended at around 6:00 am, still made it to work. I love Holdem. Watch out for "TxsPkrBndt" he might be going all in on you

Absolute main event

my best finishes and cashes:

1st of 244 for ladies night win on Poker host of $80

1st of 480 on Fair Poker for OnlinePokertour win $75 plus seat in finals for WSOP 2006 seat (I have two other final table appearances so far this year in OPT)

1st of 30-33 on a $5.50 buyin for $58.75 on Royal Vegas with Lou Krieger in the field (no I didnt take him out)

have a couple of more wins, lots of final tables and small cashes in largely freerolls. Lately I have been bubble girl so a good cash should be around the bend. I did cash in the first tourney I ever played in 13th of 413 in the $1 new player tourney on Party Poker on 9/26/2004 my debut. I also cashed in the first Omaha Hi/Lo tourney I every played in 3rd of 200+ for $10 in a freeroll

Too be fair I rated myself as good. I still have a lot to learn and still make a lot of mistakes.

some sites are harder for me to play at than others. I usually make the money tables about one out of four times. Have been in the top 3 about 20 times. My biggest first place win was $400. I prefer freezeouts and sit-n-gos, but usually play anything. Have been playing online for 3 months now. Have i made a profit? no.

As far as SNG goes I have won many of them. Usually $10 buy in and the first place payoff is $50 dollars. I was in a $5 multi table tourney with 370 people in it and I came in Second Place. It paid $222.00 First was like $350.00 wish I could of won! All in all Iv'e had quite a few top 20's and one other top ten's. Just can't wait to win one. I'll keep trying and learning how to play better from cardschat.com.

I've made 3 final tables in 2 months, with my best finish coming yesterday. I came in second out of 185. Unfortunately, it was a $1 tourney of FullTilt and only won $31. Overall, I do pretty well, usually going out just b4 the money.
