| I forgot to mention that he began his journey at a $8.80 Tier 1 SNG and parlayed his way up the chain. So in essence, his initial investment of $8.80 was all he needed to play in the WSOP Main Event! |

| His final game was a $1K + $60 Sat. to the ME. There were 119 entrants, with the final table all winning entrance. |

WOO!!!
I won my seat!
I want everyone to know I initially invested only about $35. I planned it all out from the bottom levels. You can see my plan to get there here:
I started with four $8 buy ins, with 4 conclusions. Fairly easy to follow (just follow the path letter label). Path D(a) is what ultimately got me there.
Also, I'm only 21, so I have no idea how to get there, or register, or do anything to get rolling on this. Can anyone provide any help? |

| Honestly you should just unregister and take the T$ if you can, and take the cash. Maybe go play some smaller events or just bank the money and spend some on vacation, something like that. The ME is not worth playing espescially when you can just take $10K cash or whatever. |

You're so much of a nit they should call you Nitty Bumppo, like the James Fenimore Cooper character. |

holy crap that's sick. congrats bro.
i agree with CD though. if i were you i'd take the cash, enjoy a week in LV and play some smaller events. imagine bubbling out of the ME on a bad beat! then again, i never would have tried to satellite into the ME from $8 either. |
