I started spreading my wings and have finally flown the nest of my local bar leagues and weekly tournaments, and recently entered in a couple ProAm and Open tournaments.
I feel like a newbie or beginner again, and honestly, it feels great. The environment and atmosphere that the "big boys" play in is not only far different than playing locals, but seems to really suit me. I'm getting my butt kicked in these competitions, but I'm playing better than I ever have on these occasions too.
Needless to say, I am completely hooked on this level of competition. Even if I should never place in the money, which I'm confident will happen eventually, this is without a doubt, where I should be. Probably should've been here getting my feet wet long before. But now that I've made the transition...I'm not sure I can ever go back.
