Well I deposited $50 onto FTP about a week ago and Im trying to get to the big $1000 never have odne it before so I figure Im going to try to challenge myself. At the moment I have $150 in my account, had a great day today and have now left the $0.10/$0.20 nl holdem and moved on up to $0.10/$0.25 Testing out my bankroll and if I get below $100 i move back down to 10 cent 20 cent. But I don't want to do that. I started this challenge of true bankroll management from the strategy of Mago's. I figure Ill just give my day to day updates on this thread.

Well done mate, keep us updated but make sure you play within your bankroll and dont move up in limits to quick, that tends to be the downfall with most players.

I can only hope to do the same, but scince I'm still in the fish category, it might take some time... but I'll just keep playing, hopefully I'll get to the same level

Good luck, without bankroll managment you can lose it all very fast too.

play tight on 3-4 10-25 tabels 10man and you will find that you will earn some money maybe not directly but over the run you will win when hit your nuts and the other not tight players make moves to the pot with low straights etc.

Good luck to you. May the flop be with you ... I was planning on to do the same. Just within a timeframe (like a week) and only playing SNGs on stars. It has been done before and stars have great SNGs with really bad players.

Lol try a bluff in low stackes its hard but not impossible you just need take some notes about players and look the style and then you can stole some pots
