Thomas "boku" Boekhoff, also known as the king of multi-tabling, started back in July 2009 a challenge where he wanted to win a total amount of $100.000 within 12 months, starting with just $5 on PokerStars.

After the start failed and $5 were gone, Boekhoff had to start all over again and sticked to a strict bankroll management.

His winnings were going straight upwards for ten months in a row and they just got interrupted by a short break in April. At the end of last week, the German player finally announced that he successfully managed to complete the challenge and posted the following comment in his blog:

"Challenge successfully completed 🙂 will post screenshot of bankroll and graphs tomorrow"

He stated here that about 50% of his profit was generated by the winnings he made at the tables, while the other 50% came from FPPs, Milestone Rewards and other promotions.
