Good luck Grunchcan, I'm glad I won't have to worry about running into you at 2/4. Post some progress reports, i.e. how many hands until you build enough of a roll for 1/2 -> 1/2 max -> 2/4, etc.

Unless you're playing for money, you're only playing for chips... and the color doesn't matter all that much.

Best of luck on your journey, and happy pokering.

See my wife like that fact that we are going to vacation in San Francisco. You have to bribe the chicks every now and then. Oh, and she doesn't complain about all "those damn poker books" on my nightstand anymore. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'd hit up Golden Tiger Poker after doing Paradise once you have a > $400 roll, 50% bonus up to $200. In fact that's what I'm doing today. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Just cleared the paradise granny, takes forever at .25/.50, but dabbled in a bit of .50/1.00 near the end and it cleared alot faster.

Sounds like the way you play, that $299 is almost enough for 1/2.

My bad, miscalculated.

Good luck rebuilding.

That really sucks man, sorry to hear it. Just think about what life would be like if you hadn't built a roll though. What you need to do is build one of those worms that takes all those little fractional cents from banking transactions and deposits them in a...well, never mind, it's just not the same without the Lumberg avatar.

I'll work on a funny that involves kool-aid too.

Best of luck.

Condolences bro... my bankroll just took a major hit, too.

We just moved into a new house and rennovated the basement. About the time my step-son needed to borrow money to keep his wheels rolling.

So I cashed out all of my reserves, just leaving behind a couple hundred at Party.

I was just about to get my Dell 2001fp monitor, too! ... wah!

I hadn't really started hitting the skins up for their bonuses yet, and I got the March Party bonuses after the cash-out, so I've already doubled my bankroll with the bonuses. Too bad I didn't have more money to get higher bonuses... sigh.
