Hey all.... I just won my first big on-line tournament. I came in 1st out of 862 people in a $5.50 MTT on UB. It paid $970!

I'm pretty excited, and as always, I feel like I owe a lot to this forum. I've learned a lot this year from the discussions here, and once again, it's paid off. Thanks!

Nice, I have 7-8 final tables, and no wins.

Thanks, for the good wishes. This was my first MTT win with a field over 30 people, and it was my second biggest payday. I won $4,500 in January in a live MTT, but I finished second there out of 120 players. Although the prize was smaller here, it felt great to win one of these things, and once again, I appreciate the help that this forum has given me throughout the year.
