DO NOT ASK ME FOR MONEY IN ANY FORM SHAPE OR FASHION. I WORKED HARD TO EARN MY BANKROLL AND AM STILL WORKING HARD TO INCREASE IT. I WILL NOT "LEND" NOR WILL I "TRADE".

I spent a year working on a Full Tilt Poker bankroll building project. I am hosting all the information on my personal blog called Project Freeroll. This was a little different than the standard "Zero to Hero" challanges popularized by Chris Ferguson in that I will built my bankroll from playing nothing but freerolls for 1 year.

Project Freeroll end on Saturday, July 18, 2009 with my Full Tilt bankroll being $310.26.

Due to a computer hard drive crash, I lost my templates for making Full Tilt tables and Poker Stars themes. I'm not going to dig into trying to recreate them at this time.

There are now a ton of folks on here that make tables, so I don't feel a lot of urgency related to this at this time.

I'll leave everything linked below for archival purposes.

• Holdem's Hero is a simulated railbirds freeroll. We are giuding our Hero (Hero) through all the typical challenges of a freeroll (the all-inners, the maniacs, the sitters, etc.) As each hand is posted, the respondents (and this could be you) vote on the action Hero is to take. (Click Here for the Holdem's Hero Index.)
