It was pretty sweet for a $100 buy in and about 6 hours of poker. I'm looking to build a 5 figure bank roll so I can play in the bigger buy-ins and guarantees.

-Get my first 4 figure score.

 

There are others, but this is the one that stands out.

Coincidentally my new TPE shirt came in the mail today. Bankroll building is fun.

I heard Darryl Jace mention his book in a podcast and I've been reading it. Great stuff.

I want to play in a bigger field an "invest in a loss"

 

I will build a bankroll and make the jump to higher buy-ins. Long term I want to be in Vegas for the WSOP next year. I don't know if I'm ready for the main-event jump but definitely want to be there and do some of the other bracelet events.
