Hey guys,
Played in a $11 buy-in tourney at Party Poker (screen name: iplaynuts) this evening, and took down 1st prize for $1551 in winnings.. This is my first ever 1st place victory in a $11 touney buy-in. There were a total of 660 players, and the tournament lasted about 5 hours.

On two occasions, i cracked AK with QK's...so i had my share of luck. I layed down a couple of big hands pre-flop as well.

When we were down to 9 people, i was the chip leader and Party Poker allowed everyone to vote yes or no for equally distributing the winnings among the remaining players and end the game.

Originally, i was up for that idea, but the 2nd and 3rd place chip leaders voted against it. I'm glad they made that decision.

Here's a pic...

Awesome JOB BBP!!! How nice does it feel to finally take one of these down??

[Lytspeed]

Very nice, BBP! Congratulations!

The best I've ever done is 1st place for $84 in a 5 table turbo SnG on PokerStars. Someday I hope to place high in a big tourney like yours.

Keep up the good work!
