lol - you'll see what we did for Brael - he qualified for the Sun final - a $30,000 tourney - with 9 entrants - so $30,000 / 9 gave the value of his prize!!!

Did allow someone else the value of an ipod as their PB - but we took a pessimistic/low value ....... does $185 count as that? (I've no idea!!) - if so - happy to put that down as your PB.

The final - is $5000 prize money with about 100 entrants? So presumed value of $50 - you're better of counting the ipod!! As you say - impossible to add in all the other "money can't buy" bits and pieces

Just a note to everyone as well - in general, PB's are ONLY accepted with a screenshot - these ones for Uber are acceptable however as I (and many other PL'rs) were there to witness the feat!!!

Don't recall who it was - but someone asked me about live games - and i said I wouldn't count them ..... however notice a bit of an inconsistency there as I have Fenners big live win in - in general, I won't add in live games - it becomes too hard to administer and verify - I will however leave Fenners in there, as he qualified online, won it in front of PL witnesses and it was a heavily supported PL tournament - I retain sole discretion on what to include and what not, in general however, expect requests to include live games to be rejected!!!

I'd say any televised event would be acceptable as a rule Gaf?

My PB was in the 32Red Poker Masters Grand Final held on 8 January 2006:

I was lucky enough to win my entry to the final via 32Red's weekly quiz. I certainly don't consider myself good enough at Poker to stake $55 on a game.

I was umming and arring whether to put my $15 dollar win in for January.

However, I've just won $25 by winning a $5 STT. Not massive, but it gives me something to aim at.

Apologies about the screenshot not being one of those 'ranking' shots but I couldn't find how to do it this time!

[Football-Tipper]

Just typical...You go all the way To VEGAS win a poker tourny and its still not good enough.........

[GotaFancy?]

Nice one guys - and superb result Col!!! (You'll be doing the same within 6 months Hodgey )

GaF you'll probably be able to verify that my PB was on Monday in the Sporting Odds Dollar up. I finished 4th and won $52.

I have a pic somewhere on my machine....do I need to post it?

Cheers

My names on it as well ...................... see if you can guess my poker.co.uk screenname

[Pocket Lady]

Couldn't you get "Slow Typing Punter" in as a Nickname?

You Muppet!

[Hedonist]

I had my first ever tournament win yesterday on the Blue Square $200 bankroll booster.

I won $54 but I do not have a screenshot.

Got lucky on final table, went all in with QQ called by AA and hit flush on river. Final hand A6 spades against pair of 10's hit ace on river.

Feel I beat better players by luck but I'll take it.

[kevsul]

This is just a P/B as regards getting to final table and finishing in 7th

I hadn't been having a good day on the cash tables the day i opened the account and was overcome by a brief moment of honesty I accidentaly found out that its a great screen name on the cash tables though............... i've never had so many people call my final bet with weak hands ......................... they seem to think that they must be able to beat a Big Muppet

Er.....so what you're trying to say is it's not a PB? Might have been better in the bragging thread

Other PB's should now be up to date (Nice result hedonist, but sorry - no screenshot no PB - I'm feeling mean today )

[kevsul]

yeah i think your right on that GAF..
Bragging thread it should have been

[runadrum]

Finally something worth putting on here (for the stats GaF - 873 entrants)
