Default bankroll building

was looking through some of the old posts and noticed the bankroll building contests. They were fun as hell for everyone and was wondering if anyone would like to do this again sometimes soon?

if you want to know what I'am talking about do a search for bankroll building. I think it would be fun to do this again and kinda fits into what I plan on attempting. Maybe we can all throw $5 in the pool and winner of contest takes it all. I know not much for all the high rollers here but might be fun. Post if you are interested.

I remember it was $100 into 1k and $25 into something, think like $500 or something, I would do either. Of course stil playing low limits, I expect all you guys to bust it pretty quick playing some high limit and taking one bad beat then me flying under the radar playing .05/.10 up $20.


but seriously Im really interested in getting this going.

I think it has to be something like $0 into $100,000 to get JD interested these days....

I'm interested. I almost suggested doing a longer term thing to turn $100 into $10,000 or something, but then I remembered how difficult it is to keep track of for a week or two, much less a few months or more....

As a side note, I heard something (on here I think) about Jesus doing another bankroll building contest from $0. Does anyone have a link to anything from him describing the plans? I want to try that one of these days.

I would do any amount into anything but im not shooting for hitting 10k,5k hell not even $500, I just plan on grinding. But I do think this would be real good and we all know how you LOVE doing updates for us.

I think we could do a month long one at the very longest, depending of course how many people join. Im sure TP will join seeing as he won the $25 one and has to defend it. Count me in, and I hope its easier to track this time.

Honestly, even though it was fun, I doubt I'll join this time (unless we start at $100 and I'll just go for broke if we do that). I'm trying to focus on more serious poker when I do make the time to play, so I don't think I'll want to mess around with this too much.

I definitely recommend this for others though. Maybe post a link to one of the old ones so people can see how we did it, the rules, etc.
