Thanks again all, for your appreciation . There were 96 players when I played. Really nice. I suggest you play there. I start micro s n g, collect my winning then I played $ 1.05 buy in satellite for $11 ticket. A lot MTT we can play with $ 11 ticket. I play the MTT at Hero poker.Make budget, just use my winning to play at satellite.
I really hope I will win big MTT and share happiness with you like dozno1, but I more...more...hope a lot of us win big MTT then we collect a part of our winning to create big freeroll for mobster. I am sure all of you will be agree

Congratulations, $96 is a very good prize, taking in consideration you only spent $1.1 for it. Now tell me: with that prize, do you intend to invest a part of if directly in another tourney similar to that $800 Gtd Freezout, like buying the $11 buy-in, or you will continue to play low buy-in satellites to try to win the tickets? I think that, after a result like that, maybe you can think of going for it directly, just don’t spend it all trying.

Carbon has some weird tournies. Serpang plays in a tough timezone for games i think also. Im really glad to hear you used a ticket you parlayed for 1$ instead of playing a 11$ game from your bankroll.
Your bankroll is still just a baby and needs to be taken care of though so i hope you continue to grind micro mtts and look for that 1st place money. Id suggest playing the same sng's and mtt's u were playing and look for deep runs or maybe another 11$ ticket. The more games you play the better the chance for a deep run and thats why BRM is important. You can't play alot of 11$ games with your roll but you can play a tonne of 1$ games. Some of which pay really good money.
Again WTG SERPANG!!! was the game fun to play? easier then micro because skilled players are easier to play with? lets see some interesting hands/spots!! You made it thru the danger zone with your bankroll man!!!! now stupidity is your only foe. Play smart and within ur bankroll and youll almost never go broke now!!!! Onward and upward!!!!!

Good one Serpang. A win like that is a big boost for players when they start playing in a new room starting from scratch or wih a small bankroll. If you are a tourney player this will help you a lot since now you have more options in buy ins. gl

Sorry Micro, just now I broke my principle ( no play big buy in MTT without ticket ). I buy in same MTT by cash. Finish 14th of 72, no prize. got a lot crap card I couldn't handle situation like that. and got so many disconnected, make me nervous and tilt.
I promise you I WILL NOT do it again ( buy in $ 11 even more by cash ) NEVER AGAIN !!! Complete explaination I wrote at my blog.
You right they play very nice there, much different with freeroll or micro buy in.
Thanks Micro, And Good Luck for you. I am waiting good news from you.
