Bankroll from nothing

#1 3rd February 2008, 9:49 PM

I've been trying to build a bank roll starting from nothing and have hit the $100 mark. I did have a bit of a cheat though. I had about a $3 BR when I used some FPPs from earlier play for a SnG and won an $11 ticket which I sold for $9 (Thanks AG). Anyway, a little over 4 months of off and on play to get this far. Not as fast as Chris Ferguson but better than Snowman. I'm pretty happy but expecting a bit of a downswing now that I've bragged.

well done.. chris said it himself that the first 100 was the hardest
and if u look at his graphs, ull see it took him a bit longer than u to reach his first 100,
whats ur next target?

Congrats

I'm in the middle of my third (or is it fourth?) attempt at this at the moment, I'm still yet to break the $20 barrier though :P

Right now I'm still debating on what to do from here. I'm thinking about moving some of this over to Full Tilt. Also, I have been using the beta version of PT3 (Thanks Chuck). I think I want to purchase the finished version when it comes out. What ever I do, I not making any big jumps in the limits I have been playing yet.

so are u playing cash games or tournies?
cause if ur playin cash games i think pokerstars has much better limits for ur roll size
but if u like a bit smaller sized tourny fields u should move some funds to ftp

but whatever u do, good luck
