Get a new forum badge for completing the Bankroll Challenge
We check in with our bloggers who are crushing their mindsets, crushing from the big blind and crushing eight high with quads!

Much better than an NFT, if you head over to the forums you will see that anybody who completes the Bankroll Challenge gets one of these neat badges on their forum avatar (right).
Sometimes all it takes is a mindset shift, that certainly worked for mjez1 who came up with a new mantra that immediately saw his results turn around. She tells herself:
I will fold every hand which is not bringing me into any profitable spot. I will not chase the money. The right play is always the right play.
It looks like bigdog63 also had a big leap forward in mindset. He realised he was not 3-betting from the blinds enough and losing money by playing out of position without initiative too much.
Getting Quads is cool, but did you ever get them paid off by eight high? pokerplayernumber1 managed to this week.
Finally we are loving the free content you guys are producing for your fellow members, like this PLO coaching video courtesy of ghaleon - enjoy!

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.
Extra Prizes with the KKPoker Boost
If you do your challenge at KKPoker you not only get a headstart because of the 50% Rakeback they are offering any PokerStrategist signing up.
Our mobile-only partner is throwing in more prizes for all Bankroll Challenge bloggers, with Silver, Black and Platinum Cards raffled monthly among any PokerStrategist taking part in the Bankroll Challenge at KKPoker.
What's more, anyone completing their first Bankroll Challenge at KKPoker will get a month's Platinum Card and Samurai Era Pack, with the cards unlocking exciting game features including opponent HUD stats and the Samurai Pack unlocking special card themes and a new table layout.
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. Remember though that you will benefit from extra prizes if you take part in the Bankroll Challenge at KKPoker.
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.
- If you participate at KKPoker, your results will be tracked automatically but you still need to update your blog at least once a week.
Once a month we will raffle $100 among all eligble PokerStrategists regardless of where you play. Players participating at KKPoker get an exclusive KKPoker Boost where you're able to win Silver, Black and Platinum Cards on top.
