    I'm up for this Rich - I have been trying to do a similar thing over the last few weeks unofficially, so let's set a target.

    I will start with £50 on the 1st May and like Greg, I will attempt to run it upto £200 by the 31st (note to self however - only play holdem, not omaha - only play holdem, not omaha, only play holdem, not omaha)

    Great idea btw Rich - I have tried posting a bankroll challenge on here before, but then got self-conscious that nobody probably gave a **** - now I have an excuse!

    Great stuff- good luck Mr Wh1te- £50 to £500 is a huge one. Be well impressive if you can manage it. No reloading though- unless of course you fess up on this thread! Welcome aboard Irish and Snowy.  Monkey- I will stick my neck out

    I dont do reloading.

    Last month I turned £150 into £700 but had the most awful luck on the mtt's.
    Low stakes grinding it is from now on :D

    I'll give it a shot at turning £100 into £200.  If I run into trouble can I top it up by washing cars or taking dogs for a walk?

    Don't go sitting at a 50p/£1 table on May 1st - otherwise you might need to go to Battersea Dogs' Home ;-)

Welcome aboard Irish and Snowy.  Monkey- I will stick my neck out and say right now that I predict you will beat your target. Only just mind, but you WILL beat it ;) How's that for a vote of confidence?

    gonna put 100 pound on the 1st of may and try not to have to reload by the 3rd of may!!

    this will up my usual profit by 100 percent!!

    And will be staying clear of RR's as tikay tells me i'm rubbish!

    Ill have a go with £100, no specific targets, the only aim is to have a higher ROI than any other player on this thread who's starting with £100 or less! :)

    Im up for this. My bankroll is currently £171.54 (I'll post my actual starting bankroll on 1st May) and I am playing £5.50 DYMs. I'm hoping to move upto £11 ones asap but wont be able to play as much as I'd like during May (maybe a couple of hours a day though). I will set a (rather ambitious given my play) target of £300. Cheers for this Rich, its a good idea as the extra motivation never hurts.

    I'm assuming of course, that these are euphemisms..?

    You're going to work the streets if you drop below a certain blind level? Now that's pressure...

    Yes, at least this way Rich, EVERYONE will see you fail.

    Actually, that's not a good thing, is it?

    Cool- our first big hitter. 1K to 3K. Looking forward to seeing how you far Barnsie- thanks for joining in mate.

    Still missing a micro-limits player in this challenge.

    Wonder if Porkerman will try and get a big ROI on his freeplay poker points? ;)

    Come on Porkerman, where are you?

    Ah, another £100'er. Good lad sick_swans. We will both fight together in the trenches on the same starting amount then.

    Bagsy you go over the top first, when the whistles blow though. I'll be right behind you..
