Message: [QUOTE="tbdbitl, post: 821656, member: 35822"] [b]My UB start ...[/b] Here's just a clip from a blog I have on another poker forum: In March of 2005, I was looking at my account screen and noticed that there was $1.00 of real money in my account. I thought, where’d the hell did that come from. Wouldn’t you know, my co-worker had transferred me a buck. This guy actually was thinking, if he could get me hooked on the real tables and I lost the buck, I’d deposit and give him as a referring member and receive Bonus dollars from my deposit. The penny table journey begins! Not having even enough to enter a $1.00 + .10 SnG, I started sitting at the .01/.02 NL tables with the least amount of money I could. It didn’t take too long and I was up to $10. I then played SnGs. But with me, I found that with the time invested in these tourneys, I was actually making more money in the ring games. Another, thing I noticed was all of my Bonus Dollars were gone—converted. My next thought was that I need more Bonus Dollars. So, I concentrated on the $500 Bonus$ freerolls. I was now, instead of just making the $$$, finishing in the top 50. Eventually, I finally made it to a final table with everyone else having atleast 10x my chip stack. But, everyone one at the table was so intent on getting the big stack’s chips, they paid no attention to me. I finished 2nd. I strung together a few more final tables and finally I won one. I proceeded to build my bankroll. In the fall of 2005, I decided it was time to move up. So, I was off to the .05/.10 tables. Play hard play strong at the penny tables. enter in the Ultimatebet B$ Freerolls. enjoy the grind! BTW I eventually built my br there to about $1400 - $1600 from that original $1.00 I cashed for $500, but have been in a tail spin there since. Look at Chris Ferguson's stuff about 0 -to- 10K on FTP. There is some great info on bankroll management and some rules he followed. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
