Message: [QUOTE="Arjonius, post: 2185352, member: 5332"] My first live tournament was by far the highlight of my poker "career". I managed to satellite into the Irish Open by winning a package valued at more than $7000. The field had many of the best know Europeans, with Doyle and Todd Brunson as the most prominent Americans. I busted just before the end of day 1, but got to play the entire time with a guy who had won an EPT or WPT on my right (plus he won this tournament the next year), so it was very interesting to get to watch someone at that level close up. It was also tremendously cool to be in an environment that was so poker-oriented, especially since I don't have much occasion to talk poker with people in person. There, for four days, it was virtually the only thing anyone talked about. [/QUOTE]
