Hi dom i started with the free $8 and i soon got it up to over $100 but i hit a downswing almost lost it all was down to last $3 and managed to build it back to around $100. I then won the $500 rebuy for $220 and my bankroll peaked at $350, But stupid me started playing roulette on the casino and almost blew it but i had the sense to leave with $100 and that is pretty much where i'm still at.

That sounds like quite an exciting ride ,there Devil goat ....
I got lucky in my first week with my $8 .. And managed a 2nd and a 3rd in the $1.10 mtt's ... I then slowly lost about 20% of my bank roll over the next 10 days .playing mostly $1 sit n go's and MTT's...
Then last weekend i was tempted by one of the great offers for first depositors ... ( lol i sound like an avert ;] ....)...free $20 and the free roll ipad tournee which is still going as i write ... so i added to my bank roll from my own money to get in to that.and the 20.. I managed to scrape in to 15th place ... (only 15 places paid )... which gets me a ticket into the suday $50k chalenge
worth$80 ... :} .. but no ipad .....
I'm gonna get tottally out classed on sunday lol....
So I've lost the rite to say its all been done with thier $8 ,,,, but i'm happy enough ;]
ps i got a 4th to day in a $1.10 mtt to put me back closer to my bank roll top....... 2nd would have got me a new high
good luck at the tables ... except against me of coarse :}
let me know how ur gettin on

Good luck on sunday, Just play your top game and you should be alright and don't play scared this could be a real good chance to boost your roll, If i was you i would watch some of the daily challange's from the rail maybe ask a few of the forum regulars if you can watch them play.
I'v been doing ok up and down a bit mainly because i like taking an odd shot at higher level's when i have a good day but my plan is working and my roll is still growing so i'l stick with it.

I come 4th in the daily $500 on saturday and decided to take a stab at one of the jackpot tables 50c/1$ and i bought in for the min amount i had a bit of luck at first but then i got QQ and ran into AA i didn't lose all my stack but most of it so i left that table real quick.
But normally if i want to take a shot at the next level it's the 5/10c tables and i buy in for the max amount but i think you have to be real strict about how much you are willing to lose and stick to it and also how much you want to make profit and stick to it. You can use this rule if you want dom:
NL
To Play the Level comfortably and regularly: 50x Max Buy in
To take a shot at the next level: 20x Max Buy in

I was having a think last night about taking shots at the next level's without risking our bankroll and came up with this plan, I would like to hear what others think and see if anyone else had tried anything like this before?
1) Open 4 micro tables 1/2c buy in for max $2 and play until you have made $6 profit and leave all table.
2) Open 1 6max table 3/6c buy in for max $6 and play until you have doubled up and leave the table
3) open 2 6max tables 3/6c buy in for max $6 and play until we have made $20 between the 2 table then leave
4) open 2 full ring or 6max 5/10c buy in for max $10 and play until we have made $50 and leave both tables
5) open 1 jackpot table 50c/1$ and buy in for $50 and play the jackpot after we reach $100 and cash out when we reach $200
And if at any point we bust and go broke we have lost nothing and just go back to step 1 and repeat until we reach our goal of $200 or you could continue if you wanted but i think it's best to have cut off point.
