Default New Internet Challenge to Myself

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I'm a rookie around here.

Anyways I'm a winning player in live games and a losing player online (yeah, one of those) and I recently completed a challenge someone gave on FCP to win 20k off of $200 (I only made it to 10k).

Now I'm kind of bored with poker so I'm going to try and see if I can make it on the net.

I started with $50 of my own money on Full Tilt, $50 free money on Bodog. I'm going to see which one I can run up more (or I may lose them both). On Full Tilt, I'm only playing poker. On Bodog I can do whatever, bet on sports, black jack, pai gow, whatever but to be honest it'll pretty much be collegel football bets and poker.

I'll keep some updates going. Right now (after about a week) I have 500+ on FT and 700+ on bodog, I'll do it official tomorrow.

k, now, help me here. Did you have to clone yourself and buy another computer in order to safely grow your bankroll from $50 to $700, or did you play above your limits, or how did you do this exactly?

This is gonna sound bad but because the $50 was free, I was like F-it and played in a $1/2 no limit game all night and ran it to like $300, then $700 the next night.

However, this weekend I put $300 on USC and they didn't even come close to covering so now the BR on Bodog is like $400 but the BR on Full Tilt jumped to $1600 because I placed 48th in the 750k guaranteed yesterday.

But I have to tell you guys before you even mention it that my BR management is horrible. I'm a pretty successful player (live) and don't have much to show for it. This is something that I'm fully aware of and I'd like to work on and improve. I just need to train myself to live a more disciplined lifestyle.

And re: the free $50 -- it was given to me by bodog...I think because I hadn't played on there in about a year, they did it to lure me back to the site. It was just randomly emailed to me.
