Welcome to the TPF BBC (Bankroll Building Contest)...

[Talking Poker]

I have to say, Blibbity, I disagree. No one ever said this $25 was supposed to represent someone's entire bankroll or that this is what someone should do if it was. I was to keep it a friendly $ amount, but no way am I sitting at some .02/.04 table.

If people (like me) get lucky playing $25 NL to start, so be it. There is just as good a chance that they will get unlucky and be busted in their first orbit.

That's the point though - everyone gets to decide how they want to work the $25. If they want to take the high risk/reward, so be it. If they want to grind away at the microlimits, that's fine too.

I'd you'd rather me change the name of this from "Bankroll Building Contest" to "$25 Building Contest," so be it... but there will be no restrictions as to what games/limits people play. If Heads up Triple Draw is your game, go for it!

I wasn't saying you had to do it that way. That was just how the other contest was structured.

Funny though

Lucky for you Chip, the contest hasn't started yet. We're still working out the details and seeing how much interest there is.

And yes, you can play SNGs with the money if you want. You can play anything at all so long as it is online poker.

Edit: Keep in mind though, you still need to count your hands played, and I have to think SNGs are going to take you a lot more hands than cash games would...

Other contest, schmother contest. This is OUR contest. We don't play by THEIR rules!!!
