   BRAG : Won my first MTT

   I won my first 45 man MTT yesterday online.
   In fact I won two in succession and cashed in one more.
   BEAT: It is only micro stakes ($1) and so I made a tiny profit.
   I also know most of you have won much bigger tournaments but this is a good start for me.

   I won a lot of 9 man SNGs and cashed in MTTs but never won anything in MTTs.

   With these wins I cashed 3 out of the 5 I was playing simultaneously after not cashing in 6 straight.
   One word - variance!

   But it was good to make right decisions and of course I got lucky!

   Overall I think I play well in MTTs but the variance is hard to take.
   But ROI of 100% is what keeps me motivated.
   I know if I play enough volume I will win enough.

   I am not bankrolled for low stakes so I will stay in micro stakes even though I am ready.

   • Nice ROI for a win. Imagine if you put in $10 :) I agree playing it conservatively on the bankroll building.

   • I put in 1.1 and got around 12.5.
     My confidence in 100% is low since sample size is still low.
     Also ROI will be lower in small stakes for sure.
     So I won't be moving up until I build a solid roll.

   • Nice work, man. 100% ROI is definitely great. How many times your entry do you get for winning a 45-man tourney? At the rate you are going, I should bankroll you :)
