many congratulations on your performance in a major live tournament. I hope you did not have too much emotion and in the future you will be able to play more live tournaments. Is better in this way because you gain more experience. Good luck in future.

Congrats and good luck for the dutch open,1600€ ticket is a very big buyin. And playing live Poker is one of the greatest thinks and ,spezially in a very big tourney like yours.
my congratulations on a good win .... on the BRM are mostly players in online poker and casinos and when someone tells about the game offline it's very interesting and cool .... you write that it was your first tournament and it's very cool .. Good luck to you in December in Holland

That is even better with the bounties. Plus the tournament you got the ticket for, must have some good prizes. Never mind the professionals, Go there and crash them, to take home, the first prize again
earlier on the forum there were no reports of players who play offline ... or I did not notice them .... and in the last six months already two players write about participating in offline tournaments .... if in the first case the player was not able to win then now the player won good money ... read very interesting
