Placed 15th in a 2500 person poker tournament online
although I only won $75. Since it was free to enter it was the achievement rather than the reward that was good.

Moneywise, I turned $300 into $2000 by doubling up 3 times through the same guy in a ring game. That was more luck than skill though, as he let me know vigorously and thoroughly for some time.

Betting is for idiots who lose or very very smart people who win, not really much middle ground.

Does a 'ring game'
Involve rimming?

Sorry.

That's quite a good result, 15th. Was that online?

that would be the "online" part of the subject line
I'd like to play in a huge real tournament, but I'm not really all that good. A ring game is like a pick-up game: you sit down while the game is going on with any amount of money up to the table limit, get that much in chips, and play with that. Leave when you like, convert chips back to money. With a tournament you pay a fixed buy-in and get a fixed return depending where you finish.
