Message: [QUOTE="wizz99, post: 5949616, member: 446697"] I remember my first big prize. I think I had been playing online poker for a while back in around 2004 and decided to play in a casino live for the first time. It was in my hometown in the UK and it was a quite intimidating old school style casino. Anyway the buy in was £20 with unlimited rebuys in the first hour or so. I thought £20 is fine I'll give it a go. After 30 mins I realised what I got myself into. People were go all in every other hand and the rebuys were out of control! At the end of the rebuys I was still in but at spent £100 in buys (a lot more than I had planned!!) I thought to myself, god I better win something after spending £100 already. Luckily I made the final table and did a deal for £500 finishing joint 2nd I think as a few of us took £500 and the chip leader took around £1k. Strange times but good memories. [/QUOTE]
