well I'm going to take a shot at this, I just deposited $100.00 into pokerstars , I'm going to try to build it up to $5000.00. I'll be playing a mix of cash game and tournaments. but I can cheat, so if I start getting low in funds I can add more. but I'll cap my limit at $500.00. when I'm playing a tournament I'll post it here, when playing at a table I'll also post it here so if anybody wants to rail, feel free to do so. so I'm starting out in the $10.50 super knockout $8k gtd. here goes.

actually you'll notice in my first post I did not set a time frame,because a person might play different if they have a set time, so like the game , no limit. also dureing the week I get home from work around 4pm, so I only play until around 6pm. then I stop. I usually do most of my playing on weekends. well 1st game today is the same as yesterday $10.50 super knockout $8K gtd. starts in 30 min.
------------ well bombed out in that one so now I'm going to play $11.00 15 min time tournament, if you get a couple of good hands these games make you some quick cash.
------------ bombed out in those 2 tournments so went to a $2.00 -$4.00 limit table so now my bank roll is $161.38 climbing slowly.

Good luck and hope it works out for you! It's one of my favorites also, but I play them where I can and that's not by choice. Really miss playing on the popular sites!

there actually good games to play I like the $10.50 buyin 15 min, they all start with blinds at 50 and 100, 15 min is 3 levels, at the end of the time you get paid according to how many chips you have,so if you have a couple of good hands the profit can be good,the stupid one they have is $5.50 180 min.if you last 180 min you the only one left. lol but I never play more then the 30 min games. so does this help.
------------ Gonna start the day with a $1.10 30min time tourny
------------ didn't get anywhere in that game so joined the $10.50 super knockout $8k gtd. got a $5.00 bounty on my first hand, hope the game stays this way LOL
------------ not in the money yet but got 5 bounies so a 15 profit so far we'll see how it goes

U already doubled up in 3 days seems to be going good . At the levels that you are playing it can still shift to a deep downswing very fast thou... You seem to have a game plan going on so i wont say anything about that.. really interested in seeing the final result on this one too. Keep it up

looking great so far almost a double up on the initial deposit...you rock have to agree with lukasb here- those buy-ins of ~$10 look mighty huge comparing them to your initial roll of $100...but since you told u can up the roll to $500, then i guess it's just the way u manage your deposits- like to keep more in e-wallet and less in bankingstars...

You are doing very good so far. You have made the deposit four days ago and already you have increased it by 2.5 times. With that rythm and with a little more better lick reaching your goal isnt going to take too much time. Good luck.
