I played a Stars bronze freeroll way back and binked it for 3.1k - that was a good sleep.

I was being backed at the time for all my MTT action and thus split it with my backers. Cashed out a majority of my cut.

Now still grinding the micros with the nagging thought of what could have been if I had have just kept it as my BR. Hindsight is 20/20 though right?

I stacked the same guy 3 times in 4 hands .. JJ v AA (set on Flop, he shoved) = AA v KK next hand = AJs v TT two hands later (he short bought and I fell sorry for him a bit .. bink!)

There was also the time I ran $220 up to $3180 in 4 hours of 1/2 play with no pot over $150 during the run. (And I was folding those 'theoretical' winners as well)

That is running hot ... GL

I sucked out on a guy in a huge pot and actually made him cry.

Not sure if it's my best but taking $5.91 to over $1200 in a week was a lot of fun. I got to brag about it as it happened in this thread (nearly ten years ago, wow.)

Cliffs: itm $5.50 tourney -> $22 PLO8 tourneys, 50-70 swimmers, top 2'd 6 (? hazy memory) in a row ez game.

Ooh a brag thread? Yay.

My best poker run hasn't ended yet, but I'm a long term thinker.

I just passed the 1k tracked tourney mark for the past ~3 years. Something like 15% roi. Wheee.

My favorite win of all those tourneys was probably the 12 game tourney that I won online vs ~50 of the sites best, most accomplished players. The heads up battle for 1st place lasted over an hour, covering all 12 games.

I won a TI live tourney, chopped the second with my husband, and came in third on the next one (in a row, same day). About 36 runners in each.
