Rail and learn from our Bankroll Challengers
We have sick PLO hands, a new coach and an interesting debate about limping- you can learn a lot from our members and their blogs!
If you are a PLO grinder you really have to follow the blog of ghaleon who crushes the PLO games on Unibet. This week he posted a ton of interesting PLO spots, why not pay a visit and share your thoughts?
Another great follow if you want to learn and rail is our and our newest coach maniac - stay tuned for what will be the first of many SNG videos from him.
This week monteCarlol posted a graph, which we always like, and some sage advice - never bluff at micro stakes!
Do you agree with this statement? Limping the small blind is always profitable with any hand. That's what pokerplayernumber1 said this week, why not join the debate?
Finally a Bankroll Challenge exclusive - we all know you love (well, tolerate, well maybe not even that) our editor Barry Carter post pictures of his dog Charlie. Well, Charlie is doing fine and we have heard rumours he may have a new puppy friend joining the Carter family.....

What is the Bankroll Challenge?
In the Bankroll Challenge we encourage our members to get better by blogging about their poker journey and setting some ambitious goals.
Our members found that having a blog kept them accountable to their goals and it's a great way to help them get to know their fellow PokerStrategists. As the saying goes 'what gets measured, gets managed' and simply having a blog keeps you on your A-Game.
To help you on your journey and with a little bit of luck you can win $100 that we will raffle once a month among our active bloggers, regardless of where they play, accompanied by a special badge for their forum avatar for anyone succeeding in their first Bankroll Challenge.
How to join the Bankroll Challenge
The challenge is open to all PokerStrategists and you do not need to be tracked to us to participate. All you need to do is:
- Start a blog in our forum.
- State your starting bankroll, your regular stakes/games and your poker room in the first post.
- Set a long term bankroll goal of at least $500 and/or a minimum of five times your starting bankroll.
- Sign-up to the Bankroll Challenge in our registration thread, with a link to your personal blog, your initial bankroll and your goal.
- Post at least once a week in your blog.
Once a month we will raffle $100 among all eligble PokerStrategists participating in the Bankroll Challenge regardless of where you play.
