Super Funtime Chreckraise Factory...
The SFCF stable is a staking-and-training enterprise, whose primary members are me Magistr_Ludi (Tao_Jones), DOGISHEAD (INTERNET POKERS), and BikiniWax (ConstantColorUp). We are looking for good SSNL/MSNL HU specialists or established 6-max players who are looking to transition to HU NL, essentially to get staked and simultaneously coached for a period of time. We won't accept just anybody; we're looking primarily for people who have an idea of what they're doing but want some guidance and monetary stability/low risk. We're still in the process of working out the exact details, but the program we have in mind is pretty expansive.
As for now, we're looking to find any talented players who fit our criteria. The details of the program will change as it goes on. As of now, the default staking deal will be something between 35/65 (our favor) to 50/50 depending on your skill and reliability, with something between 8 - 16 buyins. These numbers are obviously vague and will not only be decided upon review of any applicant's transcript, but also may vary over time as the applicant's skills/reliability goes up. There will however be an initial period where the deal will be frozen. If your application is accepted, then we will work out the details specifically so that you know what you're getting into.
Requirements:
- Being a winning player at NL100+ NLHU or NL200+ 6M NLHE
- You MUST have some positive reputation within the poker community; even a whiff of dishonesty in your reputation and you'll be disqualified
- Being receptive, "coachable" and being able to take criticism
Some of the reasons that we came up with as to why you'd want to choose our program:
- No financial risk
- Having access to DOGISHEAD, Bikini Wax, and Magistr_Ludi on a regular basis for advice or hand discussion
- Having a FREE dedicated coach/instructor (one of us three depending on stakes/availability) to help you develop as a player (obviously our time is worth a good deal of money, so this should be a big incentive)
- Being companions with other members of the program, and having a strong base of communication and peer review
- A dedicated IRC channel in which you can ask us questions, discuss results, show hands, etc., which allows for better poker education
- Having us guide you through the limits and help you progress quickly
- Profit!
Obviously this isn't for everyone, but if you're someone who wants to learn but doesn't have the money to pay for coaching, or would like to use your bankroll to other expenses and start afresh with a more cogent and viable plan of improving, or just simply want to work with some good coaches and get into a positive community for free, feel free to apply and we'll get back to you ASAP.
