Re: first donkament you\'ve ever won?
First time that I went to Vegas four months after turning 21, I brought $600 and thought that would last me five days. Played maybe two hours a night, still lost all but $100 by my last day.
So I entered a daily donkament at the MGM Grand for $85 (leaving me $15 for a cab to the airport and souveniers... like matchbooks or napkins). I thought I missed my chance when they told me I was alternate #23, because I thought that meant I'd have to be lucky enough for 23 people to somehow forget that they registered. I quickly discovered this wasn't the case when the 23rd person was knocked out. Get KK third hand to double up and catch up to the others, got lucky a sufficient amount of times (1010>AA, then AQ>AK on final table), made best call of my life with K4off when heads up, ship $2400. Additional Brag: When I was walking away two girls stopped me and said "We were rooting for you." Beat: I said "Thanks" and kept walking.

Re: first donkament you\'ve ever won?
It was a 1$ buy-in donkament on everest with 54 players. I flopped a set of 6's on the final hand while holding 2 red 6's... lol.
I won 34.75$ and I was a nl2 cheeseburger cash game player at that time so it was nice. |

Re: first donkament you\'ve ever won?
I played on a prima skin which had a weekly leaderboard. Top 100 on the leaderboard made it to a weekly $1k freeroll. At the time I was 1 tabling $0.05/0.10 NL so I have no idea how I managed to even make the freeroll. I took it down for $400 making my bankroll like $450.
Best day of my life. |
