I know exactly what you feel like. Well maybe not exactly, but I know a similar feeling. I had one of the best rushes of my life before. I increased my bankroll by 15 times what I started with. Unforunately it all came to an end and I busted. I read some books, and deposited for the league. I am doing fairly well now. It all comes in time with practice and experience.

BTW - I've been meaning to mention this to you (and anyone else it applies too). The "league" is probably well above your bankroll. As long as you KNOW that, and understand that there is a high probabality that you will bust, it's ok. If you are looking at it as entertainment money, like you would going to a movie, then great. But if you have a $50 bankroll (for example) and don't want to risk losing it, playing in $11 SNGs is a terrible, terrible idea.

I imagine I'm not telling you anything you don't already know, but I wanted to say it anyway...

Yeah, I'm looking at it as definately -EV given the quality of the players, but definately worthwhile entertainment.
