The $5 Challenge for all players

[gingerwizard]

Assming $5 is well within your bankroll, here is the $5 challenge:

Give yourself a set period of time (i suggest 24 hours, but maybe a week if you want).

You start with $5

You play ANY form of poker you want, moving up as soon as you can.

The winner turns it into the most money in the set period.

You have to post hands/tourn results showing how you made your money increases.

The idea is to take a shot, within your BR, at getting to the big time (like fillibuster).

My possible route:
$5 PLO enough for;
A $6.50 turbo. Win then enough for;
$10 PLO and a $11 SNG,
6max $25PLO;
$22 SNG, $50NL holdem
$100NL, $5 MTT
........
.......
...
.....
$5/$10??

Just for a day....Just from $5.......Quit when you want....Should be a laugh.

Obviously you'd have to run insanely good to get far, but someone may. Plenty of stories of people making tons sitting with their whole roll on one table, running good, and moving up. These guys always go busto eventually, but since we'd only be doing it for a set period, either we lose our $5 investment, or we run insane and join the big boys.

Sound like a laugh?

I did a $10 -> $1000 monthly challenge as a bet with my friend, which was pretty fun. Pretty much grinded $1 sngs until rolled for $3s, then ran good at 25nl - 50nl (pretty unrolled ). Heck, why not - shades of dwarfman challenge!

I dwarfmanned it to 400nl once. I realized shortstacking could be profitable
