MyDonationFunds' Bankroll Challenge

[Mrlova]

Initial Bankroll:

Freerolls played to date: 11 <---No Longer will be updated
Cash Won in freerolls: $27.20 <---No Longer will be updated

Rakeback/bonuses: $0.48
Current Bankroll: $53.82
Hands played: 8,132
Total SnG's played: 358
Total SnG's and Hands played are not accurate. Some games were not recognized by PT3 and thus not in the above figures. I estimate an error of <5%

Everyone else seems to be doing this so I'm going to also.

I'm tired of hearing people complain about Carbon being rigged, or constantly getting "merged". Poker is a game of swings. I will attempt to prove the swings of poker, along with proving that a bankroll can be established with discipline and good play.

My intentions for this challenge are to turn a roll of $0 into a legitimate bankroll. I'm in the process of zero'ing out my roll right now. When I do that I'll post a picture of my Carbon lobby to show I have $0.

I will be posting the results of EVERY session I play, that means if I play 100 sessions in a day, or 100 SnG's, I will post EVERY result of that game. This way I can show the swings of poker better, and show that building a bankroll is very challenging. I've never deposited on Carbon as some may know yet I have a pretty legitimate bankroll. It's through hard work that I accomplished this.

For anyone who wants to follow me in this challenge, stay tuned to this thread. I wrote this post first, but I'm going to do some quick editing and make this my second post and make the first post my current bankroll and keep editing that one. That should make it easier to follow. In case you don't already know, my Carbon screename is "MyDonationFund".

This will be fun and challenging. I can't remember the last time I started from scratch!!!!!!

I cant agree more with u ppl either need to quit playing or just stop complaining,them saying carbon is rigged is just there exscuse for losing and that all in it self is pathetic !

[TrueOC]

online poker isnt rigged at all....is there more horrible beats than ussual? 100% yes. but that is also due to the fact that you are playing 100x more hands...in a standard home game im sure you can lay like 50 hands per hour. online you can play like 200+ depending on how many tables....

Great idea I'll definitely follow your progress.

I wish luck to you as I do to all who are trying this.

This isn't nothing new to me. This is how I established a roll on Carbon in the first place. Give me a week and I should have enough to play around with. It just takes dedication and the ability to not go on tilt. Hopefully I can prove to people that hardwork does pay off

[jbetta01]

well the thing is we all know that you are a good enough player to create a bankroll out of thin air best of luck tho
