Hello,
My name is Jon, I am new to 2+2 but have been playing poker on pokerstars for almost 2 years now, with some very notable MTT cashes and I am capable of consistent profits with the $2.50, $3.50+R, and $8.00 SnG's. I play under the name NoControlio, and you will see my best result is 3rd in the $109 Sunday Kickoff, which I played in August. Much of this money was used to pay off bills, and I've recently been laid off. I ran very well recently but had to cash out my bankroll for the christmas season and to give me some padding while waiting for fresh income, but I have gone on a painful downswing ripe with lost coinflips and a lot of unfortunate boards and coolers which crippled my roll on stars. I formerly played on 888 poker as GrindTHAT, posting ~$700 profits as well.
I am looking for a backer who can allow me the freedom to pursue poker as a means of income, at least short term, while waiting for employment with my degree. I am very willing to be flexible to the backer's game selection, but I prefer and feel more skilled with tournament play as opposed to cash games. I will have an outside source of income shortly, but will not have enough to be able to post a reasonable bankroll for myself in the near future.
I have not been staked before. I have a friend who is currently being staked and the idea had crossed my mind before, but I had a comfortable income and bankroll to play what I wanted before being laid off. I can provide some character references and any other info you might need. Obviously I want you to be comfortable that I am a capable and worthwhile investment, I just need the bankroll to support my growth. An arrangement with coaching would also be welcome, but not required.
If interested pm, or email

Cheers,
Jon
