The Chris Ferguson Challange put to the test!

Posted 30th June 2008 at 02:46 AM by gamer4life27
I have been wondering if when Chris Ferguson went from $0 - $10,000 in less than a year, was it real? I know he is sponsored by FullTiltPoker, but did they help him out at all? To figure this out, I have decided to take the challenge myself.

I know it took him about 7 months to get a super small bankroll just off of freerolls, but I have nothing better to do. Lol.

If anyone of you reading this and doesn't know what I'm talking about, follow this link and it will explain it all:

http://w.fulltiltpoker.com/chris-ferguson-challenge

So now that I have made the challenge to myself to go from nothing to something (my goal is $1,000, since Chris Ferguson is a pro, I don't think I will be able to get that far without some practice), I will blog about my journey here. I will come here with updates on if I had won any freerolls or anything.

The challenge will be on FullTiltPoker.Com. My username will be gamer4life27. You can follow me if you wish, give me good luck wherever I go, and comment on my plays. My journey will start as soon as possible. So most likely, tomorrow (6/30/08).

On that link above, it shows his main goal in showing us about Bankroll Management, so I want to see if it's not just being a famous poker pro that will get you money, but if having guidelines to your bankroll will really make a difference.

To start it off, I will be playing in the Satellite to the Ferguson. It's a free buy-in, and top 100/2700 get paid 1 T$ to enter a $1 tournament held every day.

Also, I will try to enter the 500k play chip tournaments, and the 180 people freerolls for the FTP's.

I just cashed in a .50 MTT so now I'm up .92 cents. Not bad. It can be done!
