First tournament win as a Live The Dream member!

Posted by Viktoria | Filed under Live Tournaments

First of all, I must say that I am absolutely delighted to be a member of the Everest Poker Live The Dream 2010 Team! I will be traveling the world for the first time in my life as a poker pro! This is really a dream come true.

I played my first tournament as a team member in Deauville at the EPT where I didn’t cash. However on my second trip I won a tournament already!

I came to Las Vegas a couple of days ago for the NAPT (North-American Poker Tour) and I decided to play several smaller side events for $350 and $560. The first one I played I won right away :) ))))

I am very happy, this was the first live international tournament that I won. I made some final tables before but never actually won outside of Hungary.

I had very good cards during the whole tournament, I think I played well too, and my edges held up most of the time. Even my AA held up on the Final Table :) (It never did so before!)

I know it wasn’t a huge tournament, 327 players and $350 buy-in, but for example WSOP Main Event champion, Jerry Yang was playing it too!

I will play some more of these side events and then the Main Event which has a $5000 buy-in.  I think I am ready to win one of the big tournaments now :) ))
