It seems like most of the success stories, ZeeJustin, Ozzy_87, Action_Jeff, they all one won huge tournies to get their roll started, and little do you hear about the guys like me who deposit 200 bucks and try to be patient and build up slowly moving up stakes. Hopefully I will be able to sustain the patience and do so. Does that ever work? Wouldn't it be so nice if I could win a huge tourney liek they all did, but hey, life sucks...

ZJ's hit some tournament scores, but he had a decent roll before that just from SNGs and some cash games.

I noticed this part too.
To imply that ZeeJustin just happened to hit a couple of big tournament scores is pretty silly.
As I understand it, he grinded his way up and worked pretty hard at improving his game.
Eventually doing quite well in the 200+15 SNG's (8-tabling perhaps) and also heads-up tourneys.
Zee ALSO happened to hit a couple other big scores. But these were on top of (and mostly after) he had pretty much proven himself to be quite a solid player.
