[Closed] Get Rich or Die Tryin' - The Bankroll Challenge - Opt-in now!

Do you allow taking part in this promo and the analogous promo of the Russian community at the same time? Do you allow entering this promo with a greatly reduced bankroll with no penalty after quitting the Russian promo (e.g. some people may need to cash most of the roll out, I've just found out myself that I can't manage my liferoll as loose as before)?

Do winnings and losses on accounts at partner sites that aren't tracked to Pokerstrategy count? What proofs of volume / winnings should be provided (cashier screenshots etc)?

Sure, no problem.

Yes, there is no tracking requirement, instead a bonus raffle for active members.

What proofs of volume should be provided?

Whatever you are currently using to track it yourself - ideally Holdem Manager 2 / Poker Tracker 4. Those are not compulsory though, main point is to motivate yourself to set and reach goals. Obviously keeping your progress documented and well maintained will also help you a lot.

Many thanks, I've always known that the English community is kind

Very cool idea ♠_cool:

My Blog: Get Rich or Die Tryin "ntelis1"
Starting Bankroll: 30$
Goal: 500$

I have one more dumb question, sorry...

By saying 'different amount of tickets depending on his current status', do you mean the status as of today, as of the opt-in day or as of the day of the raffle? I think it's better to make the number of tickets a function of both - reward consistency, but at the same time incentivise members to earn more SPs in October or November. You may even give tickets more dynamically - every week depending on the amount of SPs earned in the previous week.

I'm in too!

What if I cash out? Because I have to cash out a little to live

In the Russian version of the promo, it's up to the member to decide whether to deduct cashouts from the bankroll or not, and I assume it should be the same here. Do as you wish, just be honest with yourself.

Personally, I don't like to deduct cashouts from the bankroll because it would make me farther from the HoF, which is meaningful in the English version (nets a status upgrade). That said, I hardly ever cash out :f_frown:, basically, only if I intend to leave a poker room altogether or if it bans my country.

I think it's fair to allow not deducting cashouts, as it makes the playing field level, everyone has the same objective regardless of the financial situation - to earn 4 times X before losing X, where X is up to the player and doesn't have to correspond to their real wealth. In the Russian version, some people like a HoFer and coach Kireev, were intentionally using risky 'tankroll management' to reach the goal faster.
