Although I am a recent member of this site, I've been playing online and live poker for years. Although never making it rich, I have always made a steady profit playing low stakes tourneys and SNGs. So after having to cashout all my winnings from both Full Tilt and Absolute last year, I decided to see if a donkey amateur could somewhat re-create the "Ferguson Challenge'. If you don't know what that is check it out on FullTilt.
My goals are a lot less ambitious but I hope to make a clear $10K this year.I have always played by very similar staking rules as Chris Ferguson suggests, so I hope I will end up being 1/10th the player (financially) that he is.
I missed the first couple of weeks of 2011 so let's see how I do.

So whats your Bank roll at right now?
"And Shepherds we shall be. For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand. Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti."

When I joined PokerOwned, my FullTilt account had $0.8 and my Absolute account had zero. I'll check to see what date that was later. Y placed 2nd in Zabs afternoon freeroll for $6 and change. Lost a $1.10 tourn yesterday and won a 90 player $1.10 tourn today for $22 and change so now my FullTilt account is at $26.63.
