WSOPc Ring Hunting

My name is Rex Clinkscales and I have been playing poker since a youngster. I started taking the game more serious in 2006 after doing very well in local cash games. For the past 5+ years I made good money playing cash. I started playing $1/2 and moved up to $2/5 shortly after. Last year I moved to Las Vegas and that is when I started getting more into tournaments. The WSOPc stopped in Las Vegas last April and I cashed in 3 ring events my first week. After that series I starting playing more daily tournaments at many of the Las Vegas casinos and doing very well. By October I built up enough of a bankroll to take my chance travelling to some WSOPc stops. Since then I played at 7 different circuit stops playing 4 or 5 tournaments per stop and I now have almost $45k in earnings with 12 cashes and 5 final tables. My circuit results can be seen HERE I also accumulated enough points throughout the season to guarantee my seat into the National Championship freeroll. The circuit National leaderboard points can be seen HERE Thanks to a good friend of mine who buys and sells in the Marketplace, I am now getting staked by top investors from the 2+2 Marketplace. I've decided to get staked for 6 tournaments at the WSOPc St. Louis stop starting 4/12 The tournaments on my schedule are:

St. Louis Schedule
4/12 - $355 Event #1 NLHE

4/14 - $355 Event #4 Re Entry

4/16 - $355 Event #6 NLHE

4/17 - $355 Event #7 6max

4/18 - $565 Event #8 NLHE

4/19 - $355 Event #9 NLHE

$2340 x 1.154 = $2,700

Investors
25% tarheelkid23
10% mjcace
10% Aceball
10% Jlozan84

My goal is to get my first WSOPc ring. I have came close on many occassions but I still do not have one. Now that I have investors I will be able to play more tournaments and increase my chance on getting my first WSOPc ring. If anyone is interested in following me on my journey to get my "bling" I will be updating this thread at the end of each tournament day. If anyone would like to follow me on Twitter click HERE I would also answer any questions anyone my have about me. Thanks for the interest!

I regret to inform that I will not be able to play the events in St. Louis due to a family emergency. I appreciate the opportunity and I hope investors understand and this emergency doesn't effect any future opportunities. Please keep this thread in ur favorites and I will update future poker ventures as I try to reach my goal of the ring then the bracelet

WSOP/Venetian - 10 tournaments

Hey everyone, its me again but this time I'm on another goal...to ship a bracelet in 2011 and my planned schedule is...

5/24 Venetian $400 reentry
5/25 Venetian $400 reentry
5/26 Venetian $600
5/28 Event #2 $1,500
5/30 Venetian $600
6/01 Venetian $600 reentry
6/02 Venetian $600 reentry
6/03 Event #09 $1,500 reentry
6/06 Event #15 $1,500 shootout
6/07 Event #16 $1,500 SixHanded

Note tournaments missed due to an overlap will be used for one of equal value. Any unused buy ins will be refunded with MarkUp.

$9,200 x 1.24 = 11,408 each 1% = $114
02% = $228
03% = $342
05% = $570
10% = $1,140

Selling off 65% I am chopping a suite at the Rio with Jose313 and he has agreed to handle payments. Investments can be sent to his Paypal or ChaseQP contact either one of us for info.

I'll give you 1,000,000,000 to 1 on $10 that you don't ship a bracelet in 2011.


Anyways, good luck this summer!!

The first tournament of my package now starts with the $1,500 WSOP on 5/28 The Venetian tournaments taken off the were 5/24 $400 - 5/25 $400 - 5/26 $600 of the schedule and were added on 5/29 $400 - 6/9 $600 - 6/10 $400 the substituted tournaments are the same price so percentages are still the same.

Schedule
5/28 Event #2 $1,500

5/29 Venetian $400

5/30 Venetian $600

6/01 Venetian $600 reentry

6/02 Venetian $600 reentry

6/06 Event #15 $1,500 shootout

6/07 Event #16 $1,500 SixHanded

6/09 Venetian $600

6/10 Venetian $400

Note - tournaments missed due to an overlap will be used for one of equal value. Any unused buy ins will be refunded with MarkUp.

$9,200 x 1.24 = $11,408 1% = $114

02% = $228
03% = $342
05% = $570
10% = $1,140

I posted the updated list for Rex because his battery died.

I wanna add that I've played with Rex many times and he's a great player and very consistent overall. He knows how to adjust from shortstack play to deekstack play and almost always makes the best decisions in a hand.

res 5% Good Luck bro

Re: WSOPc Ring Hunting

I bought 2% here. Great value on a hot/ super solid player. Can't wait to buy more of the later packages too

5% bud.

Not sure if any of you follow this guy on Twitter, but I think he literally doesn't know how to NOT make a final table. Seriously, it's unreal how well he plays & how hot he is running right now.

Re: WSOPc Ring Hunting

Also, why not increase exposure by posting in the Marketplace forum?
