1/500 for $12.5K in a Party 35K Guaranteed
1/120 in a PLO8 w/ RB & AO for $3.7K
1/250 for $5.7K in a Party 50+5

All this in two months. Have done jack [censored] since though [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

Update:

I've since won $13.5K in the Party 40K Guaranteed months ago.

Also won $43K at the WSOP ME this year. And then followed it up nicely by winning a $40K WPT prize package at the Borgata Ultimate Super Satellite.

Been ice cold since (hoping this sparks some more wins, since apparently it did last time [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] ).

So far, two gold tickets to a Leaf game.

I expect more. Perhaps season tickets to all three major teams are on the agenda. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Money's boring. Bracelets and troffys are cool. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

35k for me, 6th in a million guaranteed, no deals unfortunately cause it was super top heavy ~ 300k 1st and 170k second.

Online: $600 for 9th in a $25K guaranteed at Stars

Live: $1100 for an 11-way chop in a live tourney in Vegas. I don't know how we got 11 people to agree to a chop, but I would have had to finish 3rd to do much better, and there were 3 much bigger stacks at the table. Plus, I had a plane to catch.

My bankroll is small, and I'm just starting out, so therefore I haven't won anything big time yet.

But, for me, my biggest accomplishments so far:

5+1/180 finished 3rd, 5th and 8th in 3 out of 4 tourneys (the 4th I went out in 40th place after my AA all in preflop lost to A10 after two 10s hit on the flop).
Finished 10th in a 10,000 man freeroll (didn't win any money, but it was fun).

My first live cash tourney for $20 buy in, I finished 4th out of 65 for about $90 (was low stack in tourney with 20 people left until I went out).

Best live score is shockingly still the same. Online I chopped the Titan Million for 240k (192k because I traded 20% of myself [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img])

Also, reading this thread made me laugh a few times, particularly at timex's:
