Default 3 big cashes in 3 consecutive tourneys

In my last three live tournaments (basically at home games- or expanded games at a social club) I finished 3rd out of 40, won $500; 1st out of 15 for $700 (after I rebought, being the first to be eliminated), and just yesterday 2nd out of 10 for $160! At the first and last of these I was the only one not to rebuy!

What an awesome tournament streak! I just hope that its not just a "lucky" streak and that it won't "run out" on me. I think people are starting to respect my game though, so hopefully whatever skill I have is showing at the tables and will continue to do so.

Buy in per person = $50, rebuy $25 (sorry, made a mistake in the last post; there was one other guy who didnt rebuy)
1st place = 50% $350
2nd place = 30% $210 (minus my buy in = $160 win)
3rd place = 20% $140

What did u mean that 160 for 2nd place is crazy?

no, i thought that since it was a home game,usually not as competitive, though i could be mistaken in your case, you guys wouldnt be putting up 50 dollars to play, but thats just me.
