Probably not a big thing compared to a lot of the higher $$ games I see Mobsters win and post about, but feeling good about this one. I won my first $1+.10 SnG last night after Mobster Mania game. The last hand in HU was great! BB is 1500 I had Kc,10c and Mrs. N had Ad,Ks of course I didn't know at the time, but she min raises to $3000 and I call. The flop is a 4h 10s 7c and I just check. Mrs. N is all in (19,000+ chips) and I call (I'm at (34,000+chips) turn is jc and river is 6c. I take all chips for my first win in an SnG after one month of playing in SnG'. I have placed 2nd, 3rd, etc., but never won. Want to thank BRM and all the Mobsters who've provided advice and support. Good Luck to All!
Could only attach this portion due to errors! Still learning this to!

Very nice Green your on a roll.. You really have come a long way and learned so much since you been here. More importantly you are actually using the stuff your learning and getting better.. Keep up the good work.

So that's what I'm doing wrong! Thanks jovica, I was wondering why I always seem to get errors when I go to attach something. So when I do my PrtScr and paste in paint, I need to save as and drop the box, then save as jpg. If you understand what I mean! Is that correct? Appreciate all you Mobsters always helping me out! Really! Good Luck to you All!

that's right. JPG and there should be an option to choose quality - you must find the sweet spot for low file size but decent quality - around "8" (out of 10) works OK.

Thanks for the kind replies all! I know I'm just learning, but was nice to win one. After placing 2nd thru 5 several times it makes you feel like you just can't win when it comes to HU.
The last time I placed 2nd to an individual, he offered to play me at some HU in PS. This individual is paulparadiis here at BRM and I haven't heard from him for a week. That's when we played! I want to thank him and again BRM/all Mobsters who are great supporters/advisors when it came to answering my simple questions. A $1+.10 isn't much, but it means a lot to someone like me. I've played poker since November 2010, so I have a little over 5 months of experience playing this game. God Bless you All and Good Luck to each and every one of you! Thanks!
