The Bankroll Challenge Begins
Last month I withdrew from Fulltilt in order to move to Stars and start building a roll. Exactly two days later I get a lovely email from Rakebackpros.com telling me I was now finally eligible (oh how nice).
With only 5 bucks left on Fulltilt I said “Hmmm this will be a good challenge I will try to build from this ala Chris Ferguson method”. That was 8 days ago. At first things went… well south to say the least. My BR dropped to 2 bucks twice and I came close to busto.
Then it happened I begin to slowly roll it up taking bits and pieces here and there. Sadly I have not put in enough hours at Stars or Fulltilt (which is poor for my BR) but still its gone rather well (better than expected).
I am still unsure even after playing which direction I intend to take later cash or sngs. I have worked quite hard on my sng/mtt game and it shows.
Sidenote For new players looking to build a roll and don’t want to invest a lot I say go for it. Sticking to the smaller stakes and winning is rather easy it simply takes time.
The question has entered my thoughts as I am sure it has entered every poker players “How far can I take this?”. Well we will have to see.
