I first played with someone who progressed his units as he won, must be almost 20 years ago. He started with 40 units at $5/unit. Goal was 100 unit win. He then went to $15 units, using 40 units for this level. He now had his original $200 plus the $500, total $700. 4o units at $15 is $600. He's already ahead if he loses. After 100 units he went to $50, then $150, and finally $500 units. When he completed the run, he went back home with $70K+. Usually did this within 2 weeks. Took a trip 5-6 times a year and made a very good living. Still at it. Saw him a few months ago back here on the coast starting a new run. Note, if he lost the 40 units at whatever level he was at, it was back to the beginning using $200 bankroll. By the way, he usually made his 100 units in 8-10 shoes. $5 tables are a thing of the past, but starting with a $15 or $25 initial unit, you can still make a run up the ladder. If you want to go for a serious run, you have to travel around as you go up...playing at casinos where you won't be considered a big bettor and draw attention. Norm was beginning to wonder if he might be pushing the limit since he was bringing $30-60K home after each 3 day trip to Biloxi. Anyways, some thoughts on growing a bankroll, and then having fun doing it over and over again.Bill
