Won my first MTT

I won my first MTT Saturday Night. 180 people, $8 MTT. Ive had goodluck lately with the MTT's and I attribute it to just going back and playing Tight Poker. As important as I know that changing gears and reading your opponents bets are Ive come to the conclusion that Tight play and letting them make the mistakes is the strategy for me.

Congrats on the win. And a great strategy. I agree.

i dont think that in a mtt you have to be as tight as in a sng...

the thing is that the stack's size is very important when the tables are "equilibrated??"

Not oa lot of strategy on this particular type of poker, anyone knows if something really good exists on this strategy ?

Not alot of strategy for this type of poker? Are you Seriously thinking that?

Congratulations royal that's a great achievement. It's good to hear that tight solid poker got you there aswell. Well done and GL in the future ones.

Good for you. That must have been a good payday. Keep up the good work.

Winning your first big tournament is a great feeling. I felt like I proved something to myself after my win.

Congratulations.

Keep up the good work.

yup yup, thats probably the best tourney strategy there is. But, i also like to throw in the occassional steal of the blinds in late position. Cant say ive won a mtt, but i know with that kind of strategy my time will come. Congrats on your win bro.

I join the others on the congratulations.Magnificently done!!!

Very Good... congratulations... and good luck ...

Congrats for the win, from me, too. But think on it, it is not happend every day. So enjoy it, till the next win com.
Have good luck, a nice time and always good hands.

congratulations, glad to hear that you have a strategy that works for you. still trying to find one myself...lol

WTG nc royals, now that you have got your first win out of the way the wins should start flowing....lol
Congrats mate.

congrats man! iv been winning some 18 player ones but the 100+ tournaments are hard to break for me. how was your final table strategy? was it same throughout the whole tournament?

First big win? Better than sex imo...... or at least more recent than sex.......

How much did you ship?

Should be about 290$, if I guess right? Nice job.

Biggest one I've won was a 90 person, only made 60$ because I play for less than 8$ buyins :P but it was still a good feeling.

Congrats. Save it for those rainy days. When you play tight and right but they never come.

WOHOOOOOOOOOO
Very nice job

Keep up the good work.

CONGRATs on your 1st win, keep it up man

For you maybe, but I would gladly give up the sex for a nice big big win.

My best finish ever is like 3rd place in a stupid 10 dollar freeroll.

Grats, MTT's are tough when it comes to placing first. Heck of an achievement. It can be rough when you are not getting any cards, I usually get frustrated, decide to loosen up before the blinds eat me, and make a silly donk play with crappy cards.

Congrats NC, the first one feels great doesn't it.

I actually forgot about my 1700 win once, but we can forget that

Congrats,

I agree with CanOkie. Please another while the confidence is ready high. I have won several small buys 9 and 18 person buys in but never a 90 person. One of the lady pros announced one time to play all you can while the cards are running good and you are feeling like you are on top of the world because it will change.

i just won a fairly good amount given my br on a freeroll on players only poker. but yeah i think i played my best poker, tight and all around solid play with some luck ^^

if only i coulda always played like this...and until the end lol...
