Hi, my name is Daniel Isaacson and Ive made a somewhat last minute decision to play the WSOP Main event. MY poker screennames are d2themfi on stars/ftp. I play midstakes HU and shorthanded cash for a living(both msnl, and ssplo), and have played >1,000 online tournaments lifetime with >50% ROI in mtts
I have a lot of references in the poker community. I've had a friendly relationship with both 'lefort' and 'learnedfromtv' on here as well as being coached by Learnedfromtv.. I will do my best to get them to post ITT asap about my trust worthiness and playing ability. Ive also done numerous 4 and 5 figure trades in the HSNL transfer thread.. Examples:

I also recently moved to Lake Tahoe with another 2p2er
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/members/84256/, who when I get back home tomorrow, I will get him to post ITT as well confirming
I also have bought pieces of a ton of people over the last 2 weeks, which you can check my post history to confirm.
I also was a video producer at leggo last summer.
As for my playing abilities, heres a graph I recently posted to my blog which is my lifetime cash graph
I dont have my poker computer with me atm, so I cant post a current $ graph but heres my ptr links

This is also a graph I had in the middle of last year from playing 2/4-5/10 NLHE
I basically never bumhunt, most of the time my sessions involve sitting at HU and playing basically anyone (which you can confirm looking at my stars best friends/worst enemies), and starting 6max/9max tables leaving a table when it gets full unless its a good table. I think that makes my winrates mean a bit more.
For tournament history, I have several large scores and mtt wins. Going off of thepokerdb.com they are as listed
1st place Stars 100$ mtt for ~$10k August 22, 2009
3rd place Stars sunday $215 HU mtt, for ~$6k June 15th 2008
1st place Stars 5$ rebuy for ~6k April 26th, 2007
3rd place FTP 50$ mtt for ~$4k Jan 31st, 2009
5th place FTP saturday 300$ 6max for ~$6k Jan 31st 2009
1st place FTP 50$ mtt for ~$11k Jan 2nd, 2009
5th place FTP 69$ MTT for ~$3.5k June 1, 2008
2nd place FTP $100 1r1a ~ $11k May 11th, 2008
6th place for FTP FTOPS 6max PLO 500$ BI, for ~11k August 11, 2007
1st place FTP Sunday mulligan for ~$30k July 1st 2007
I fairly rarely play tournaments anymore, but I still think I'll be better with <50bb stacks than almost all msnl/ssnl guys, and obviously better than all the dead money with them a well
I have little live experience. I played 1 wsop event two years ago in which I qualified when I won a Cake freeroll for a 2k seat. I cashed in that wsop tournament for just under $7k (got 83rd out of a field of ~2kish people)

I am looking to sell off 65% of my action at 1.3-1 markup. Therefore shares would look like this
1%=$130
5%= $650
10%= $1300
25%=$3250
I'll sell in 1% chunks or more. If I dont sell more than 55% of my action, all pieces will be canceled, and I will send back all shares+the markup obviously. If for whatever reason I dont end up playing(family emergency, etc), I'll obviously be shipping everything back to shareholders.
Im american, so for taxes, it is my understanding that if I cash, I'll need peoples real life information. I am not 100% sure how the taxes things work, but to reassure you, I can tell you that Russ Fox is my accountant, so I am very confident taxes will be handled in the best way possible(Russ is an accountant for lots of online poker players afaik)
Sorry for it being so long
Edit: My screennames to send to are d2themfi (hollister) on stars, and D2THEMFI (city: H) on FTP. I will also accept live cash in vegas when I get there
