boinky 0 #10 May 3, 2005 Quote Mind if I ask what the payout was?? I don't mind at all. For most of you, it's going to seem quite trivial, but for me I just wanted to finally say I won one. Click here Poker to see all the information about the tournaments I play in. The big thing is that we vie for points. Only the top 20 get points. Last night there were over 65 people playing. Supposedly, I will earn around 650 points for this win. Accumulating enough points gets you invitations to bigger tournaments that offer bigger prizes and buy-ins to cash games in other cities. They just had a National Invitational last weekend in St. Louis, Missouri that I was invited to. The local restaurant I won in last night gave away 3 gift certificate prizes. 1'st-$20. 2'nd-$10. 3'rd-$5. Once again, the prizes aren't cash, nor are they huge. But for me, it was all about the pride of finally coming in 1'st. .Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

boinky 0 #11 May 3, 2005 Thanks Chris. You're a doll! But sadly, I can't spend restaurant gift certificates on jumps . But if I could...you'd be the first one I'd buy a jump for! .Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?
