I won a ticket worth $5.5 to a satellite in a freeroll, then I went through two stages and won a ticket to a tournament worth $530 !!! In the tournament itself, after hitting ITM, I was immediately eliminated !!!

My largest entry fee was $250 for a bounty tournament at Mohegan Sun. Knocked out, re-entered, knocked out again. :)

I once won a $109 ticket to the Sunday Million tournament at PokerStars, but unfortunately I didn't reach the prize zone and didn't knock out any players, so I didn't win anything. I also played a tournament. For 30-50 dollars and got only minimal winnings.

Not sure, don't remember exactly, but for sure I haven't played a MTT with 1K+ buy-in yet, but have played everything below it...

The biggest buy in for me was a $215 tournament that I won a ticket playing satellites on 888poker. Unfortunately I lost. I played a couple $109 MTT's too, all using free tickets that I won playing satellites or winning poker rooms promotions.

A £500 stud tournament, the biggest by far, but i satellited in for £27.50. That was live. I think the biggest i've played for years is $22 buy-in - always and only on-line now.

I've played several buy ins from 1 to 5k, when I was just dedicated to poker, but today I play a lot of cheap tournaments from 2 to 100 dollars buy in.

If you take a direct purchase into the tournament, $55 several times, unfortunately, is unsuccessful. If you take a pass through the satellite, I also played the $215 tournament several times, there were min cashes.
