How easy is it to build a bankroll in the turbo $3r satellites?

Hi guys

In 2 weeks I'm going to be back playing on stars after a littlebreak and am wanting to build up a very respectable bankroll for myself. I had $700 for my first deposit but won a tourney on Ladbrokes the other day and I now have $1550. This will be my bankroll but I am hoping to build this up into, say, $4000 over time.

When I had the $700 I thought about grinding out the 4/180's over a period of time but have since given this further thought. I really fancy trying to play the $3r sattellites to the Sunday Million etc and cashing out for $215 at a time. I've qualified for a few of these before and they seem like a way to build the bankroll.

If I give myself 2xdouble rebuys and add-on => $15 per tourney. I won't use this full amount each time so over time my average buy in may be $14. This would mean I would need a 1-in-15 qualifying rate to break even The rest is profit. These seem to be going all the time.

I was just wondering how easy these are to cash from regularly and if anyones tried this?

Any advice. Is this the BR building opportunity I seem to have convinced myself of?

3r are going to be extremely high variance due to the turbo/rebuy nature I would not recommend them as a way to build a roll

I've got the $1550 roll already.

Is qualifying with an average > 1-in-15 too much to ask?

Don't make your posts in multiple forums it's spam and really annoying.

The 3r and 5r satellites are great for bankroll building.

Sorry......I won't do it again. It's just that you do get a lot more different repliers that way. Didn't realise it was frowned upon.
