Hello, I wasn't so active in the last few months because i was busy with work. Not even on poker. But last night i tought i give it a try to $2.20 Pprogressive super knock-out. Well for the first 2 hours i didn't managed to get over 7k chips and at some point i was under 2k chips down from 40k after 3 hours of playing . Then just happened and knock out every single last of them. This is also my biggest win

yes, i can play, but i want to win too I will try some, to see how the ppls are. because are not the same from lower tourneys. I played until now but not as a regular ( only few times ), and didn't managed to make something good out of it. And i played only one big tourney $215 entry but on winnerpoker and there i managed to make some profit. ( the entry was won with $1.21 and managed to get $412.

very impressive taking down a tournament with 4447 players .. that is amazing only 2.2$ made you a four figure cash taking 414.49 $ in Knockout Bounties .. it is almost as the 1st place prize and like you said .. don't make the transition to bigger buy-in tournaments just yet you need bigger bankroll for those maybe more final tables of these low buy-in tournaments would get you a decent bankroll to start playing the 20+$ tournament buy-ins .

Very nice winning a tournament with 4.4K entrants is a great result and the money coming with this accomplishment including the bounties amount a little bit 1.1K for a $2.20 entrance fee is a very good ROI and will for sure make a big difference on your BR.
Congratulations for this result and i hope you will have a lot more like this.

thx. When i was heads-up i kept my calm, don't know how but i managed to keep me calm and play poker. I was listening music the entire tourney. After i won the heads-up, i just jumped out of chair and started to jump , scream ( YES ) and dance. It was 6:30 AM romanian time I guess i wake my neighbors, better than the alarm clock to go to work. Tonight i'm giving a shot again at progressive super knock-out to see how it works.
