Hello, my name is Brian, I am a 23 year old PLO player living in Bangkok, Thailand and I am looking for a cash game PLO stake at midstakes and open to playing on any of the sites available (Stars, Party, ipoker, ongame, 888, etc). I am an American that moved to Thailand in July and have been playing poker out here ever since then. The accounts I have played on since moving to Thailand in order are:

PartyOcean on Party
MIDNIGHTMOON on Party
KingOfThe$ea on PokerStars
I also played as MagicOcean on FullTilt prior to moving, which is where I played 90% of my cash plo action from Dec '10 - Apr '11, prior to Black Friday.

I have been playing on Party Party since July 20th, 2011 (~first 200K hands in graph) and PokerStars since Sept 23, 2011, my results from July 20th - ~Dec 15th on both sites are included in this graph:


These are all my hands played on PokerStars since Black Friday (Sept 23 - Jan 23 so 4 months)


The peak in both graphs is the same point in time, I lost my party hands when my laptop crashed so they are not currently in my database, I have not played much there in the last 4 months so I have not bothered to e-mail Party to get them sent to me.

I am looking to be staked for Mid Stakes PLO 6max and HU, primarily at 2/4 and possibly game selecting good 3/6 and 5/10 games, but the focus would be on 2/4 to start. Below are my results on Stars for the games I am looking to be staked for:

Limits:


$:


bb:


Number of players:


HU graph:


Since I do not have my Party hands in my database, I will provide a screen shot of my PTR pages, the results on my PartyOcean are quite inaccurate as the tracking there is very bad, I have played ~190K hands on that account with a win rate of ~3ptBB, not 4ptBB. Approximately 85% - 95% of the hands for my MIDNIGHTMOON account were tracked:


As I do not want to appear to be cherry picking my results, these are my PokerStars PLO results at all the other limits, I have lost a significant amount of money at 1/2 on Stars and is the only limit I wont consider playing on Stars under the stake, I have done well, ~4ptBB overall at both Party and FullTilt and would have no problem playing it on another site, just not on Stars since that is apparently where all the best players in the world like to hang out just to gang up and crush me :


I am a fairly active member of both the SSPLO and HSPLO forums and can provide multiple references if requested.

I am open to discuss long or short term deals and the specifics with each interested party, but 50/50 split and 100% of rakeback and bonuses going my way seems standard and the norm in most cash staking deals.

If you are interested or have any questions I can be reached via pm or on skype @ seakinglol

From being in a skype group with brian and also following his graphs in bbv threads, I can confirm that his results he posted are accurate and that he has put a ton of work into his game, is able to play well despite running bad, and most likely has a pretty big edge at most midstakes games. Only thing he needs to work on is not tilting in chat + 2p2

I've been mainly playing1/1 HU PLO on OnGame in the past week, but still looking for a stake that would primarily be midstakes 6max on PokerStars with HU on the side.

1/1 OnGame:


All Stars and OnGame HU hands (Everything but 1/1 is on PokerStars):

How much money do you need. What stakes are you planning on playing. And what % cuts do you have expected

I think the absolute bare minimum to even consider would be 10K, but more reasonably 12K. I would like to start at 2/4 and move up over time with good results and profit. I think 50/50 split of the table profit is fair and wont consider anything less than 45/55, what happens to rakeback/FPPs would be determined upon the specifics of the stake offered (funds, length, coaching, etc) and is open for discussion with anyone that is interested.

I can speak on behalf of brian since I've talked poker with him for a long time now... he's a very good player thinking on a pretty high level. Good work ethic to. Would recommend staking him.

Im really interested in this.

have a hard time trusting thou cause 12k is a big part of my roll. Is that enough for PLO 400 are you sure? I think its a little low

Also isnt your strongest game HU? If so then why you insist on 6 max rather than HU

Id need more references. and a Hand per Months agreement or something like that.

50/50 table profits would be good. But I would also need a cut of the rakeback, at least for the beginning to be a little more secured in this risky investment.

Also why you want to play on Stars instead of ongame wich is probably easier

Below are my graphs for PartyPoker, PokerStars, and Ongame since July 2011. My PokerStars and Party hands were reimported from .zip files which contained my hand history files supplied directly via e-mail from each site.











HU Hands:










BTN/SB PFR% is somewhat lower than my actual % due to the 1:1 blind structure on OnGame, on PokerStars and all other sites with a normal 2:1 blind structure I play over 95% of my Buttons.
