Im here to show everyone that you can boost your bankroll within a short amount of time, even by playing these pathetic free-rolls, 1c and 5c tourneys. Ive withdrawn all of the money in my account and are going to show that in 3 weeks time, it would be up to £30. Just by playing these freerolls and small MTTS.
If donations for the example are wished to be made, they can be done with the assistance of Betfair as i have never been able to do so before.
Ive made this into a thread so I could show you my progress through the 21 day period. Thats £10 a week, gonna be tough.
Going to update you every tourney cash. Hopefully youll all support me in showing this site does have stuff to offer, even if you think it is fixed :)

Judging by the time of the posts, this is a thinly veiled I won 3 cents thread.
Nice steady graph 
Good luck in your quest, Betfair is actually a decent site to build from nothing. I'd be very aggressive with my bankroll strategy, only sensible bankroll when the money means something to you.

Please explain the value of £30 for 3 weeks work for you?
Proof that you can use the site for more than hurling abuse
Progress update:

Are you just gonna play freerolls and not risk any of your winnings or will you be taking the cash won and playing the added tournaments? Curious as to how you'll achieve your goal.
How much is a sick puppy and a piece of string? possibly a pound each in poundland.
Going to be risking some of the cash of course. Upto 54c from winning 3c from leaving the table at 10pm last night
At last, a down to earth poker thread with realistic winnings, if a somewhat difficult target. Good luck.
Fair play to her and to anyone posting a challenge along with their player name.
Unlike the last fella who spent a day bragging about what he was gonna do and his past alleged achievements, then vanished off the face of the earth.

Obviously got too much time on her hands. 3 weeks for £30? Better off doing a ****ing paper-round!
Considering 2/3rds of players lose overall (sharkscope stats not mine) I think any profit is good. Many play the game for enjoyment and a chance to win something, even if it is small.
Good luck.
Good luck.
This so pointless and a waste of time!! If you dont want to risk not even a penny of your own money then just type in 'no deposit bonus' into goggle and you will have a free bankroll of at least $200 across many sites and play carefully and by the end of summer you will ba able to go on hols for a week. Good luck.
To call this pointless is unfair in my opinion.
ABUY is setting herself a target and is working hard to achieve it which whether for a small or large reward is never pointless.
Lets try and get this place back to being a community rather than a place where people just come and snipe!
Good luck with your challenge and when you achieve it, it may give you the confidence to set a higher target using the money you have won.

It is pointless, its like going to work for $20 when you can go up the road and get $200, lets try and point people in the right direction instead of saying good luck when we all know there is a better offer out there.
I'm sure he/she would get better satisfaction if his/her bankroll went from $200 to $1000 instead of $0 to $30.

How's the challenge going ABUY? Nice to see a proper poker thread on here again!
Good luck!
Good luck!
I certainly don't think this challenge is pointless. The $30 in 3 weeks bit is actually totally irrelevant. I think it is the self discipline and dedication to a target that makes this thread worthwhile. Good luck ABUY
Life is about reward and memories, what will you remember, taking your family to mcdonalds($30)or a family holiday of your choice for a week!
The free $200 is a the very low end of what you can get, $500 is there for the taking.
Do the same challenge and what do you get:
$0 to $30 or $500 to $15000, think like in all aspects of life, its relevant!

The whole point of the challenge for the OP is starting at zero though. Only through hard work and good play will they get to $30.
Starting off bonus whoring with a $200, $500 or whatever starting roll is a totally different challenge.

Had two good days, sorry about the updates. Won 3 freebies and won 9 $1.20 SNGs with the winnings. Up to £6.21 and currently playing in the 21:45 PL Omaha tourney with fellow community player Ovalman
Arrrghh I'd of played that if you had said beforehand.
It was by chance that we played and was in a $1 PLO MTT which I'm hopeless at but would like to learn the game.
imo Vegas, I'd adopt an aggressive bankroll strategy but you should only be playing the added tournaments with a low balance and avoid games like the game we were playing. You should also set yourself a target of $55 and purchase the low stakes version of Holdem Manager. With HEM you can analyse your own play and plug any leaks.
I came from a freeroll background so can't knock anyone for doing the same. It's a great way to learn the game risk free and you can take any profits and turn it into something decent.

IVE NEARLY REACHED THE GOAL!! I got up to $26, then took a MASSIVE RISK IN DOING A $21 Coinflip and waS dealt KK to a Pair of 22, Flop 2 A J, Q, K. Only 78c from doing it with 15 days to spare
MASSIVE RISK IN DOING A $21 Coinflip
You were basically risking your entire bankroll on one flip if I read that correct? Yes you might reach your goal but you'll lose it all on your next flip.
I also notice your playing Coinflip tournaments, I take it you have an edge over your opponents in these?
I'd really like to know your logic as to this thread. In your O/P you make it sound as though your going to build a bankroll through proper bankroll and skill but all I see is Coinflip Tournaments varied as wide as 50c to $10.

Have I missed something here? Edge over opponents in coinflips? This is a joke right?

Yes, totally and why I wanted her to respond.
imo this isn't a bankroll building thread and more akin to making $30 by winning 4 coinflips in a row. Deposit enough times and your wish will come true. There's a skill in Hypers on Stars where a game will last 5 minutes, play 1,000 and you would do well to make 1 or 2% but there is no skill registering to a $10 coinflip, getting 1 hand and winning, play 1,000 of these and you will be down by the amount of rake paid.

Proof once again that there is a reason these people get abuse.
The governement should stop her dole money imo.
