Bank Roll Challenge - Anyone doing one?
Hi guys,
I decided to withdraw my profits from last few months (nothing huge just low triple figure) and start from £0.00, just for a personal challenge really. It would bring me a lot of satisfaction to even make £10 from zero.
This means freerolling (yes the dreaded £20 ones, the Weds' £250 and now the Community £250 ones).
I'm up very minimally at mo, but deciding to use up all my poker points on entering the freerolls. When the points reach 0 this leaves me with my starting bankroll. Really hoping to land a top spot in the £250 to boost it up.
Anyway assuming I manage to grind say £5 into my bankroll (no wins but cashing consistently).. what do ppl advise I should play with that? 60p dyms? or go sit on a 2/4p cash table with the lot? or risk ££ on a MTT?
Also does anyone have similar experiences to share? I think this would make interesting reading.
Cheers,
Dave

Currently i'm sitting at just over £100 all down to simple poker and DYM's.
Best method i think.
Well I assisted the mrs out on her newbie freeroll got 7th (£30) which we had agreed i can take 50% of the winnings.
Slightly grey area there,but was still a free tournament lol
So my roll is at the moment £15.88
As much as I hate to admit it, I think DYMS do protect against the variance of the cash tables. So I am going to start grinding from Monday. EEEEK!

p.s. Noseybonk, Think Steve is taking a sabbatical from poker for a while.
I think it's good to have an aim to save for. I am looking perhaps to get new tv.

Will be using the Sky ponits for the freerolls but they run when I'm normally busy but will try the wednesday community freeroll to which I just found out about.
