Default Spare me your PokerStars change.

I need $3.77 PokerStars money. I've got an insane idea for a video/blog series for PokerTrikz 2.

I'm going to start a bankroll of $300 and tape myself moving up for $300 to 200NL and beyond. It will be an awesome video series and when I'm not taping, it will inspire me to play more and I'll blog about it all.

The thing is I only have $296.23. So I need $3.77 to get to an even $300. Everyone spare me your change so we can do this.

Please post how much you are going to send so we don't go over $300.

BTW, I cannot promise how often I'm going to keep up with this. I hope I will carry it out, but that's a lot of grinding and I'm not a big fan of grinding anymore. This is hopefully the spark that relights the fire.

EDIT: PokerStars nick is Trikkur

hmmm really good Idea. BUT I believe you chose wrong site for that. As you promote rakeback and bonuses, you should show new poker players how bonus and rakeback helps you to build roll a lot faster. For some people no RB, just FPPs on PS and $50 max bonus doesn't make much

So AP, Bodog, new cake network sites or any other site that has both(and where you can deposit for bonus and have RB) really use these 2 factors to max would be a lot better IMHO.

R8tme, I understand your wanting to use rakeback and bonus' money to be included, but I think the emphasis on overall winning is going to be a better series.

Actually I thought the same thing after posting this. I think starting on a new room would be better. Plus it would allow people to do exactly what I did if I can succeed. They can go deposit on SITE X and grind it up. I can't do it on Cake, Stars, Full Tilt, maybe I can do a Cake network though so people can do the same at Cake, Red Star, Players Only if htey want to try as well.

There are also a few Merge network skins, but they have less traffic. After that I start to get limited being from the US. I have an Absoltue Poker account, I don't know if I ever deposited so I don't know if I can do there. I had an old UB account so thats probably out. hmmm, any suggestions?

I understand, that the emphasis is on that.

But it also inspiration for new players to grind rolls using right bankroll management. And for new players, you need to give some support while they are learning and making a lot of mistakes, this where RB and bonus can help to at least be break even.
And it's better for Trikkur and for site: RB and Bonus promotion.

Like I was starting my NL2+++ series. Had to stop with moving to another state.
But grinded roll so far to close $500
Will withdraw and deposit to get max $500 RB and Bonus this time. Love PS but don't want to miss on big part of Bankroll.
