    I'll put up a revised table Thursday evening, if anyone thinks their proposed stats are wrong leave a message and I'll modify.

    bryan1960 may want to reconfirm his proposed ROI / ROB!

    May I suggest all people doing the challenge get a £1000 freeroll ? That sure will help them win their gamble and progress with their bankroll !

    An excellent idea lastpoet, and may I further suggest that the original poster of the thread gets £10,000 added to his account to also help him along the way? Well, it only seems fair...

    Seriously, it's not up to me. But who knows? Those lovely sky suits and mods might see your post and think what a good idea that would be. If you don't ask...

    Well my BR was £0.02 but after the Facebook freeroll is now £37.72 so I can join you now and try to double up to £75 by the end of May.

    My target is to take my £100 to a greater value than that of the Greek economy.

    Nice one Steve. Just think of the ROI on 2p if you hit your £75! Gonna be a fair few percent I'll warrant...

    I'm sorry but that's not a very ambitious target, Alan. I think you should at least aim for a double-up...

    Totally flexible MrWh1te.

    It's not a big scary compettion with terms and conditions etc. Just a gathering of players hoping to make a few modest achievements over the next few weeks. Bit like doing New Year's Resolutions!

    Change your bankroll by all means before Saturday and change your target as well, if you want. But once Saturday starts, try and stick to it!

    :)

    We dont wish to come across big headed,but Bryan is confident of doubling up each day as follows.
    Day 1, start with 40p,double up to 80p log off.
    Day2, start 80p,double up,log off
    Day3 rest day.
    Day4,start £1.60,double up,log off
    Day 5,start £3.20,double up,log off.
    Day 6,start £6.40 double up before dinner,log off,have dinner,log on ,double up before supper,log off and go to bed.
    Day 7 start £25.60,double up,log off.
    Day8, rest day,perhaps fit a Bryan Oryan Investigates in.
    D Day,double up to £102.40,celebrate with a nice walk in woodpecker wood,where Bryan and i gain our strength and inspiration from watching Keek our woodpecker braying its head into a telegraph pole,something a few players on here tend to mirror ,when playing against our goodselves.Hope youve kept up with our top 100 poker tips,if so you should all achieve your goals,kind regards Bryan Oryan,poker guru

    Cheers.

    Wont change my target, well I will make it £600 instead I think.

    Just had a bit of a streak and BR start might be more than expected lol. I have to withdraw each month to pay for a honeymoon so depends on how much I win over the weekend.

      Hi Rich, I'm happy to put up my £100 and see how much i lose this month. I hear through the grapevine that you got your eye on a follicle enhancement replicator and if i'm lucky to make any profit this month ( it will have to be luck coz i'm rubbish) i'll be more then happy to chip in with a donation coz i like you.

    Now I have to wait until Monday to hear how bad I sounded, lol.

    I was hoping to get to Glasgow but not sure that's going to happen now.  I think I'll definitely try for Swansea and Nottingham.

    I don't think £100 will get me a follicle enhancement replicator, Taras. But it will get me a whacking great crate of boot polish. So, job's a good 'un.

    Good luck awesomeee, we're on the same challenge- except I intend to play cash, so it will be interesting to see how we fare. I think you're taking the much safer and solid route personally!

    On a bit of an upswing since i've started playing here again, which was last Friday. In 5 sessions i've gone from a BR of £50 to a BR of £300. I'm running pretty well, i'm not exactly flopping monsters all the time but when I get the money in ahead the hands just seem to be holding up.

    Should say that i'm not quite following any standard from of BRM, so it's not that great an acheivement considering the levels i'm playing at (.15/.30 and .25/.50)
