I never tried to build a bankroll without depositing before until I discovered these steps. It's harder then I thought it would be, I am not doing so well in them, I am strictly a micro players anyways even if I would deposit, so now I'm thinking if I would deposit and play the micro tournaments they offer, maybe even try to play some ring games, if I would enjoy the site a bit more.
I was a stars player before black friday and profited a little there by just making the minimum deposit. The minimum deposit at Carbon is 20 bucks I think, it's not a large amount of money by any means and even though I can never get in enough volume to clear any bonuses they offer, it may still be better then playing step tournaments.
