I live in Melbourne, Australia and have been playing MTTs for around 3 years. I had not been staked before this year, but towards the end of last year I got married and my wife and I bought a house, which required me to withdraw my bankroll and work for a period of time.
Earlier this year I attained backing, first with Mickey Petersen (mement_mori), who let most of his horses go after Black Friday, and then with SS-TP (his 2p2 name; I don't yet have permission to post his real name). I was playing up to $33fo and $5r with Mickey, and up to $55fo and $11r under SS-TP, with some soft higher buy ins up to $109 thrown in. I ended both of these arrangements amicably and in profit.
A couple of weeks ago I chose to go out on my own with a bankroll of around $3k, however half of that was on FTP when their licence was revoked, and coupled with a downswing I am now in a position where I am once again seeking staking.
I am able to play 5 sessions a week of around 40 tournies a session. I am averaging around 20k hands a week at the moment. I can play on any sites and have accounts on most of them, although I would prefer to play on Stars, Party, and one or two others. I will accept the offer that allows me to play the highest buy-ins. My ideal arrangment would also have scope for some coaching and support, session reviews etc.
