I was in 24th, dropped to 37/38 fought back to take 6th winning $311, went out on this hand, am not dissapointed as I have changed my playing style to be more aggressive and I am happy with my tourny style/play.

Thanks,,,Ive totally changed my play from being a player who use to wait and try and get some place cash to trying to win the tournament from the start. I find from this site and using what ive learned over the years its the way to play tournaments, sometimes you have no option but to run down the clock hoping for others to do your work and gain you some $, but believe me go for the win every time and if you have a hand play it, dont sit on it.

Ive only played very few tournaments this year but am running well and I really do feel this year I will take a big tournament win.
