    Probably has to be final tabling SPT Manchester as one it was in my backyard and secondly it was my first ever live Poker tournament which was good.

    Only wish I could re discover the definition of the words FINAL and TABLE and maybe I might start enjoying the game again! :(

    Only been playing for less than a year but still a few highlights......

    1. Getting to Survivor Final from monday in first week i played here.

    2. Winning my first ever live tournament at a Liverpool casino 8 days after reading Harrington's vol 1 book. My girlfriend watched online at the final table download but fell asleep when i was in the final three!!!!

    3. Going around vegas to see the poker rooms esp monte carlo casino (lovely room) where we had a nice chat and some pics taken with the pit boss there.( I did play at the Stratosphere but didn't enjoy it as much.

    4 Getting a couple of mentions and a post of the night on the Sky progs plus Tikay saying that i had a good attitude towards the game. Nice man as are all of the team...

    5. Seeing people willing to help each other on the forum.

    6. Still getting a buzz from the complexities of improving my play at the game and not allowing relatively small losses or wins to affect my enjoyment of it.

    TO BE HONEST....I'M JUST LOVING IT!!!

    Worst on Sky

    1/ Making the final table on the old £220 buyin monthly deepstack events after sateliting for £2.20 and still bubbling the money with decent stack on what would have been my biggest cash (about £700 for 5th) - AK vs AQ AIPF - The turn came a queen - Gutted

    Best

    2/ On a happier note winning the old TSP classic after again sateliting in for £2.20 and having it filmed on the old 30 minute shows by Orford and Giddins - Still got it on Sky plus - Knocked Orford out on the way which was nice :) -
     
    (about 155 players for £420 but treated myself to the £33 Bounty hunter the next night (Thursday)  and was 2nd of 9 only to finish in 9th from 465 players - really should have done better in that)

    seems a long time ago - more happy times to come hopefully

    Just remembered as the forum has been mentioned - winning the Apprentice forum tourney was pretty cool - pity in never ran again - still waiting for prize but belive its being sorted -hint hint TK

    Second day at DTD for the SPT final in 2010. I've made the cash, and we're down to 2 tables.

    Due to stack size and ever increasing blinds I keep shoving from position at which point Tikay says...

    "He's an animal".

    Will never be eclipsed.

    1. Finishing 2nd in my 2nd ever live MTT - quite a buzz from having a rail of people (who don't know you) watching you play

    2. Winning a free trip to Vegas and entry into a WSOP side event by winning a winner-take-all tournament

    3. Cashing in 13th place in a WSOP side event (only a year after I started playing)

    Are probably the standout  moments

    Mine has to be turning up to rail Ian MacMonster at the recent UKIPT in Nottingham where he took 8th place, having a pleaseant afternoon a bit of blackjack and a couple of beers with him and soaking up the atmosphere before buying into Dusk til Dawns evening tournament and taking it down for just over £1000.00
