We have a few stands of bamboo, so far I've gotten rid of two of them, and they're not in pots.
My solution was to buy a mini-excavator, which still took some time, but the root mass gets really dense.
Glyphosate can be used if you cut it down to the lowest joint, and pour straight glyphosate into the hollow. The stand I tried this method on has now regrown to about 5 metres in height
