My name is Michael. I live on Long Island in NY.
I was Beattrice on UB, _kingo_ on AP.
Years before I was beatrice and hellga on bodog and kingo on pacific poker.
I was a former satellite wizard and hu sitngo semi pro pre black friday.
I was doing about $4,500/month with very very little variance killing satellites for tourny $'s and using TD's in HU sitngos.
After black friday, I was forced to concentrate on my real life business but have kept my hand in the game playing micro headsup sitngos and the occasional satellite on Cake then after 1 year I moved on to ACR.
My win rates have been maintained but profits way smaller due to much smaller buy in games. I have been selling off all profits on 2 plus 2 but am tired of micro rolling small games.
My real life situation does not afford me the opportunity to properly bank roll myself at the moment but I do have free time the rest of the summer and have decided to grind bigger games again.
Post black friday, I had concerns about having a site shut the doors on me and about getting money off timely but I am less concerned about that now and I am comfortable on ACR and have sold my profits with very little trouble in past year for 5% vig.
The only thing I am lacking to be back in business full time is funds and for me that is only temporary but I do want to get started NOW!
Sharkscope results below: Cereus was obviously pre BF, Cake post (mostly all headsup sitngos) and unfortunately I do not have any results for ACR.
My objective is to find a stake so I can play headsup sitngos in the $24-$55 range and also to be able to grind the satellites for tourny bucks to use in 6 or 9 man sitngos or the occassional multi if I have enough time to play.
I was really able to cash out an avg of $4,500 month employing this system for several years maintaining a bankroll between $3000. At times due to cashout limits I had a much higher bankroll but $3,000 was my baseline magic #. I would also want the ability to pop into a soft cash game no higher then NL100 or PLO100.
My primary strength is making money. Whether it was playing headsup sitngos or satellites or a multi tourny I know how to make money online.
I am successful because I am conservative in bankroll mgt. I do not chase loses, my goal has never been to get to nosebleed stakes. I absolutely do not have tilt in me. I believe in regular cashouts. I love poker but I if I didnt make money doing it I am type of person who would not enjoy playing and losing for fun.
My weakness is i never learned how to multi table many games at once. I used to be able to do 6 games profitably but now I just play maybe 1 headsup sitngo while playing a cash game or satellite or multi. That is it and that is fine with me. I am truely amazed at the 16 table guys and the 32 table guys are like rock stars to me. That is not me though and never will be.
I am self employed in the real world and can play about 5 hours per day easy plus more on weekends.
I understand this is not the usual staking relationship I am looking for. Because I want flexibility to make money.
I am looking for 50/50 till you receive 125% of your stake back. I will then want to reduce it to 40% for each week we continue the relationship. Rakeback is included in the splits.
I am open to discussing time frames and %'s to be fair.
I had one stake relationship with Colin Moshman on here about 15 months ago. We both decided it would be best to end it after several weeks. The primary issue was they did not want me playing hyper sitngos and there was not enough action to generate any volume without them. Plus I hated no flexibility to grind satellites or sit in a cash game and with the split I would of essentially been playing for exactly same profit I would make without the stake. I also was flush with cash at the time, I am not now and did not need the stake at all.
I do not have any real references in the poker world. I am market place approved and have open thread selling ACR funds always sending 2nd.
I also do trades selling ACR funds and before that Cake funds always sending 2nd and I think all those trades speaks for my character where references shouldnt be an issue.
I can provide all my personal info, drivers license whatever. No SS # though.
Again let me make you some money.
I can start this for probably $1,200 but we can discuss that as well. I want to add that except for weekends ACR does not have the bigger satellites that ub/ap had and never has $530 satellites so I can not expect the profits to be in the $4500 avg range. But I had many $10,000 plus months so who knows really until I grind them again.
I am available to answer any questions you may have. I do not have skype on this laptop I am using but do have an account and can grab my daughters laptop with skype at anytime, she is at sleepaway camp ($9000 for 6 weeks uhhh that is why I need the stake!)
Thanks for reading
