First Final table...First win.

Tonight marks a benchmark for me...finally made a final table in a tourny that counted; and actually won!! Granted it wasn't the biggest tourny but a win is a win!! Oh yeah...also after a misread early in the tourny..was down to 185 chips. This win coinsides with my first live tourny of the year that I took 3rd in a over 100 entrant field, so it's been a good week.

Am also looking for another member to join our team from Illinois to participate in Texas Holdems HU tournies. Team currently consists of myself...Fearless (who had a great run in his first 30K last week to end up 86th), and the always fun FOOP FOOP. So post if you are interested...if you are from Peoria area you will be given first dibs since that's my home town.

Best of luck everyone and see you on the Felt..

My first final table was a 500.00 and I won that as well. I was grateful not to deal with not winning and trying again. so congrats on the win and you also get a bonus of not trying to get to a final table again and deal with 'not won one yet' here we go again...
