Ye, some epic downswings and too many cashouts have trashed any chances of hitting 20k any time soon. Bankroll's at about $1.8k, what challenge you got in mind? Reckon that would be good to keep eachother updated.

Well, I finished 2009 grinding $10-$12k which isn't too shabby but still working on the $20k mark. Playin Cereus and Cake, irony being that had I started the year on these sites i woulda hit the $20k target with rakeback included :(

Raked $15k plus on stars in 2009 and they rewarded me by closing my account, freaking joke but theyve done me such a favour, bankroll's hasn't seen better days since getting rakeback.

why did they shut you down?

I sold a few articles to a datamining site and emailed support to see if it was ok to do so whilst playing their site. I was expecting a rational response either stating that it was fine because I wasn't using any datamined hands for my games, or that any access was against the ruless.
Instead, with no warning they shut my account mid-gaming THEN I got sent an email telling me that my account was closed. So much for honesty being the best policy hey? :)

11 months 3 days $15,434.05

Missed the 8 month mark but still gunning for $20k, reckon about 5% of my games have been played on NL100 and higher so not surprising its taking longer. 50 buyins is the way ahead, GL all!

Few cooler days then humungo epic upswing at nl100 over last week taking $5k, sick freakin game finally gave me a rebate for last summer's devistation. Be chuffed if I can pull off $20k challenge in under a year and haven't played over nl100 yet.

Wasn't gonna continue this but seeing as im close to my goal thought i might as well. The 50 buyin bankroll's working a treat, dropped $1.2k over the weekend and didn't bother me that much. With my 20 buyin structure i started with, the computer woulda been outta the window by now.

22 days to get around $450, BRING IT ORRRRN!!!
