First big "win" in a big tourney

I say "win" because i didn't win, i got 2nd... and sure the buy-in was only $1 but you know what, i ousted 860 people or so and this is my first final table. I know i for damn sure got pretty lucky a few times, but most of the time i went in with the best hand, be it 60/40, coin flip, or better even, and they simply held up. I definitely need to work on my heads up play, but we went into heads up w/ chips at about 800k to him, 250 for me, so i wasn't out of it, but i needed to make some moves, since the blinds were 20k-40k

Anyway, that got my BR up to about $100... been slackin a lil bit w/ some bad beats in some sngs so i'm down to around 75, but i'm improving my game, and that's all that matters.
