Just wanted to share, since coming back of holiday in June I have won 6 MTT's from about 30 I've played - had a few other good runs - but today I have recorded my first back to back wins in the same MTT.

Not quite job quiiting money but I do love the buzz of winning an MTT and winning back to back made that buzz better!

    Excellent work. I remember you having a difficult time on cash tables recently, maybe you should quit cash and go tournament poker

    Hi. I always have been and always will be an MTT player, i'm relatively good at it. But due to my work patterns I very rarely get to play the bigger buy ins so I play cash if I dont have any MTTs going. I used to be decent at the 10nl level but after a break I just get killed by bad run and bad play. At 4nl no problem. I actually had an epiphany today as to why, Im good at adapting my play to the level i'm playing and I just havent done that lately, especially as i've exclusively been playing micro.

    So that starts now.

    Totally agree! Such a buzz.

    Currently 3/7 in my quest for 3/3.

    So gutted! 

    I got 2nd. Played really well and was chip leader for a lot of it. Got to HU with a 110k v 30k lead. Got it all in with Ah v Kh and he spiked on the turn and from there I just could not win the important pots. He actually had it over me all FT as I had a chance to bust him 3 times first with 1010 v KJ (turn again), later with 55 v 106o when he was down to 5bb and then A7 v A9 when again short stacked!
