I played in my first online poker tournament about twenty minutes ago. I thought I had it all wrapped up when, on the third hand, I knocked somebody with the avatar as me when I ended up with four kings on the river.  Alas, 2,500 chips and 64 eliminated players later, I was wrong.  Finishing 43rd out of 107 people though is pretty good I think for my first time.  I have grandiose plans of playing my way into a big money tournament and making a year's salary in three hours, sitting in my living room in slippers. Don't worry though, I'll be bored with it in three days.
