Poker Bankroll Blog’s Fulltilt SNG and MTT tournament bankroll building project

This article belongs to the Poker Project series.
To celebrate our new collaboration on the Poker Bankroll Blog and PokerBRB sites, McTap03 and I have started our own bankroll building SNG and MTT (multi table tournament) project on Full Tilt Poker. Our starting bankroll is 150$ and we will be posting regular updates on our many wins and hopefully fewer losses. It goes without saying that we expect our bankroll to increase significantly in no time.
Here are our rules for bankroll management and sharing of winnings
- We will start playing SNG’s and MTT’s with 5$ buy-ins or less. If we play re-buy tournaments, we are allowed to re-buy up to a total buyin of 5$.
- Each time we double our bankroll we will add another buy-in level
- All levels must be played for 1 week before moving up. This avoids any *rush* playing (where you only move up because you are on a winning rush), and allows some time to get use to the current level. Weeks start Monday morning.
- All SNG winnings will go to boost our bankroll.
- MTT winnings will be shared according to the scheme below with the winning player getting the bigger amount:
- MTT winnings below 100$ will go to boost our bankroll
- MTT winnings between 100$ and $500 will be split 45/45 and 10% to the bankroll.
- MTT winnings between $501 and $1000 will be split 55/35 and 10% to the bankroll.
- MTT winnings between $1001 and $2500 will be split 60/30 and 10% to the bankroll.
- MTT winnings between $2501 and $5000 will be split 70/20 and 10% to the bankroll.
- Anything higher than that will be split 80/10 and 10% to the bankroll.
Winnings can be withdrawn when agreed upon by both of us.
Our screen name is ‘pokerBRBblog’ and our motto will be “Embrace the risk” which hopefully will make Mitchell Cogert proud of us:-)
Wish us luck!
Mark and McTap03

I’m very excited about this and look forward to reliving my wins (and loses) here.
Sounds like a good idea!
How come you choose Full Tilt?
Good luck guys..
Can i add up my poker bankroll from each site to play on to make my total bankroll?For example, if i play at Pokerstars, FullTilt and Carbon Poker and I have $300 in each, when I decide to sit down at a NL ring game on pokerstars should i consider my bankroll as $300 when deciding the limit to play at or should i consider my bankroll as $900
I think it is entirely up to you. If you consider your rolls at the three sites to be 3 separate bankrolls, then treat them individually.
If you don’t mind losing your roll at one site and have an E-Wallet account so you can quickly move funds between site, then treat your 3 rolls as one collective bankroll.
