Looking for O8 and mix game stake for new weeklies

Hi,
I have been an O8 reg for 4 years or so years. I have been profitable in all forms of O8 and also have played a lot of cash games in 8 game and stud variants and have played all MTT's for the various games during the last 4 years. I am comfortable playing all buyins and have quite a few good results in weeklies and also chopped the WCOOP $320 HORSE last year for around 18k.
I have numerous O8 215 weekly wins and final tables and also chopped HU the $530 weekly PLO8 1 out of the 2 times I have played it.
I also have reasonable success in PLO mtt's. I was a PLO player before becoming more of an O8 reg.
Pre BF on ftp there were a decent number of stud/razz/horse/7 game mtts but they disappeared. Now they have the game of the week $109 which is good value depending on what game it is.
Stars there hasn't been much apart from low buyin HORSE mtt's which I regularly play.
But starting from next weekend they have lowered the $215 weekly majors in stud/razz/horse/8 game(not sure), NLO8 and PLO8 to $82's. I don't believe it's great news for the O8 weeklies but certainly is for other games and will attract more players and will be softer and much better value than the current 215's.
Also recently introduced were weekly $82 progressive jackpot mtts for NLO8 and PLO. 30k and 50k guarantees and are excellent value.
It's been a bit slow this year and I've only really been playing low buyin mtts apart from SCOOP and WCOOP. I was close to a big score in the 2k PLO8 SCOOP and took a pretty huge beat for a CL pot to bust in 14th.
I haven't played many weeklies at all this year but want to get back to play a proper weekend schedule as I am sure I am +ev in all these games and now with lower buyins even better value so thought I would try in this section to look for a backer for these weekend tournaments and possible some during the week.
I would be looking to play all these new $82 weeklies and possibly the weekly $530 PLO8.
As O8 is my main game I would be looking for backing for all $55's and over mtt's but most of the best value ones are weekends so that's my main focus.
I would also like to play the Sunday million if possible. I play nlhe every day and mostly low stakes and even though I am B/E for 10k games on stars I feel like my game is quite good and would be +ev in the SM.
My main aim is the Omaha and mix game weeklies though.
Here are shots of my overall graphs on ftp and stars. I really haven't played much at all on ftp since BF though.
As Omaha is the primary focus and make up the majority of the games that I am looking to be backed in, here are my stats for PLO and PLO8 on stars and FTP according to sharkscope.
OPR links also.

I should also say that I have been living and grinding in Thailand for the last few years. It has felt increasingly difficult for me to play peak times and I've struggled this year as the times are pretty horrible. For that and other reasons I am heading back to the UK in a few weeks and probably be staying there most of next year.
I have sold quite a few weekly and series packages here in the market place over the last couple of years with some success and no issues. I have also been a reg poster in the O8 forum and often post HH analysis.
any1 interested can pm me here or add me on Skype. matthew.griffiths
Sorry this is a bit long. Thanks for looking.
