Freerolls from some type of player points dont count.

I won a $2+r then a $33+r on Stars with no nebuys or add-ons in either one.

I won mine by winning a freeroll arranged by a rakeback site (for playing a certain number of hands, that I would probably have played anyway).

So I consider that $0.

Of course freerolls count (unless your post was just to brag).

I've still got a seat....

I kept playing $2r (to the $33r) and $5r (to the $160 DS), cashing out if I won the target seat, and then, everytime I collected $80 worth of W$, I used that to buy into the $80 sats. to the Sunday $650s. I won my seat in the second $650 I played this year. So long story short, I have no idea what it cost me unless I go through my gambling diary/PT and calculate, but I only played low-limit sats. to get there.

Won the 2006 World Blogger Championship Of Online Poker.
Totaly free freeroll, no FPPs needed and the only requirement was to have an active blog.

2247 players and 7 hours later I had taken it down for a $12K package, not bad for someone that doesnt really play MTTs.

Titan Poker freeroll, just a deposit requirement, no hands. 819 players, but 7/10 were absent from my first table, so I don't know the real number.

The only major suckout was my 32o SB pushed into the BB's QQ...flop was 3 3 x. Even after that, he still didn't call my pushes (and in general I had the cards after that).

As luck would have it, it was the two of us HU at the end, and I called his final all-in with T5 on a J T x x x board. With me acting first, it went preflop complete-check, bet-call, bet-call, check-all-in, and it just didn't smell right. After agonizing down to the wire, I clicked call and the trophy appeared on my screen. He had AK.

$160 Invested (two supers, won the second)

PS $80 Super --> $650 Weekly --> WSOP

My Friend who has NO idea how to play poker:

$3+r Super --> $650 Weekly (which I helped by 'coaching') --> WSOP

I have no idea how he got so deep in the $3+r.

I'd say about $4000 in 33+R attempts on pokerstars. I wouldn't feel comfortable if I had bought in so I was willing to spend 20k to win a seat.

Paid $55 on Party for a sub-qualifier to the main-qualifier, which I won.

This was while playing a handful of sub-qualifiers during a 5-day stretch. Spent about $250 total, won $215 in cash, plus the WSOP package. So I guess I spent about $35 to win my package.

You got a coupon? Cool. That was really nice of them. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

First $215 MTT at PP I entered. Then proceeded to play 2 more for extra spending cash, and bubbled one of them.

So, $645.
