Turn and River nothing special. That was my first big tournement entry and i loved every minute of it apart from getting knocked out in 2000Th place there was about 5000 runners
Also i got to play with Paul Wasika who was at my table and Allen Cunningham who was on my second table where i busted out.

Posted by SCDossett: congrats, 3 grand is massive, what are you going to do with your winnings?
Already withdrew 2000 lost 1000 only cost me $26 to enter it so im stoked. i got to carried away with the 1000 and lost it playing higher stakes. But man am i getting better in tournaments i used to hate them and only played cash games that was it but after playing tournaments i love it and can almost always finish in the money every time i play.

Posted by ummm_okiguess: nice work man im from aust aswell i can hopefully play real money soon if i can get an account set up here
Yeah let me know when u do we can have a game together, do u play anywhere else? when u play on FTP be very warey of playing JJ and QQ to aggresive i have played a rediculous amount of poker on FTP and those are the hands i seen get beat around alot even with a board of 3 5 9 trust me when i tell you that. Its not rigged or anything like that i just dont like JJ or QQ sickens me to the stomach. Unless u hit a set then well but i have seen some guys hit a set of Js only to be busted with runner runner sooo sick lol

The key to winning these are play any two cards at any time, BUT u need to see a cheap flop only if the raises are to big relative to stack sizes you just fold but i also play about 70 to 80% i love playing any 2 cards so long as i see a cheap flop, then when u hit big you get paid, u cannot sit around and wait for premium hands in these tourneys thats why jamie gold plays alot of hands to accumulate chips quickly.
