First BIG win - Special?

After a lot of prompting from fellow bloggers, I made it a top priority to win a trophy. On my third try I won a $10.00 freeroll and $7.00. I beat out 195 players in 1 hour and 43 minutes. That is $4.00 an hour for my efforts, and I won. Imagine how 3rd place feels.
My real goal is to nail that monthly and I'm getting closer.
I can't imagine all the hours the SPOY leaders must be logging to win so many trophies and probably a few hundred dollars.
To each his own.

The more you play, the more experience you will get. Downtown is better than most, because he has experienced more hands than most (plus a big touch of talent). It's not about SPOY, its about learning to compete and increase stamina. Make your millions in Vegas.

I know the feeling of 3rd place :) and first place. I can tell you it SUCKS to be the Bubble Boy. That is the big qustion is it better to go for the win and bubble or hold tight to the money? I go for the win. Keep up the good work u will see the money come, Still have not made it to a final yet in the 30K or 5K but will keep trying.
