Is it still possible to complete this type of challenge from $0 to $10,000 in modern days? I know Doug Polk has tried something similar to this (100 to 10000), which i believe he will accomplish. It is just going to take him 10 years to do so. So any thoughts on completing such a thing in modern ages within a few years time frame?

If $100 is doable all you need is to cover the $0 to $100 bit.

I don't really see the appeal tho. Why to make $0 to $100, like if you can't afford a $100?
If you can't, deposit $20, maybe $10, if you wanna go really cheap

To answer the exact question. If you're already a cash crusher, you can do it in, realistically, 4 months, maybe 3 if you wanna outwork everyone. But even then, if you can beat cash to any degree, the challenge should in no way shape or form take over 12 months if you're actually doing it and being dedicated with it.

For $0 part I'd check if they still have freerolls on Coinpoker, if they don't, research freerolls & free balance sign up promotions to find a way to get that first $10 somehow. Once you have $10, you're set, just be really careful till you make that first $40 where you're comfortable for nl2.

Yeah getting from $0- let's say $20 (where you can start playing the lowest limits available) will be painfully boring

Thx 4 supporting my opinion. Yeah, it's awful. The hourly you make in freerolls is godawful lower than, NL2, even. It's just a terrible way to try to make money imo.
