Getting started, feeling good

[PokerMatt2011]

Well, I played the Daily Double A on FTP last night (10/2 NLHE). I finished 24th out of over 1000 entries. Turned $11 into about $60, so that's cool. I was only a few places from the good money, so I'm a little bit annoyed I went out on 88, seems like I'd know better when the prize money almost doubled around 13-15 place. But, overall I increased my BR about $70-$75 Tuesday. I'm going to keep playing the Daily Double, one entry only, just like last night. We'll see where it goes. Thanks again for all the advice and guides.

whether or not it was good or bad depends on the hand! post a hh?

congrats on the cash!

One of the many times I have deposited a small amount and tried to run it up I start out playing the 27 and 45 man SnGs. I was pretty successful overall and turned a small deposit into a 25NL roll in a couple weeks more than once.

You can just play extremely tight in those and pick your spots pretty easily until the end when it's just a pretty simple push fold game. I'd personally recommend those.
