Yesterday, I won the $11 Rebuy Poker No Limit Tournament held in Pokerstars.com ( I managed to finish first among 710 other entrants and win almost $5,000 by investing $30 total (entry fee, plus one rebuy, plus add-on). The tournament completed after more than 7 hours of continuous play (5 mins break every hour) and although I made one or two mistakes, I am happy by my performance.
Yesterday was a very good day for me regarding poker. I made $750 twice by winning 2 SNG poker tournaments of 45 players with a $60 buy-in and during the night I placed 7th in a 1200-entrants tournament for a $1,300 win. Adding several SNG tourneys of 9 players, my total profit for the day reached about $3,500.

It was a matter of time I almost won such a tournament. Lately, I have been in several final tables in multitable poker tournaments and finishing 2nd out of 561 players is quite satisfactory. Of course, those $870 I won will help me withstand any bad losing run and variance. Still, I'm very optimistic and play many tournaments daily so I think I'll have more and better news and photos to show you in the future.
