Hi guys,

I'm looking for a stake either to play micro SnG's or cashgames (10NL). I used to be a good winner at 25NL 6max on FTP. I didn't keep track of my records too well in the past and only have a few PT graphs to back this up. Both PS & FTP nicknames are 'YESHBOOM' if you would want to take a look at my sharkscope/stats. Obviously I will keep an excellent track of my actions when I'm being staked.

I realize chances of finding a backer here are very slim with only 1 post here. I used to be a respected trader at the Full tilt poker transaction forum (which has recently disappeared). Also I read this forum about everyday and I started a blog at liquidpoker.net not too long ago. (Which can be found on http://yeshboom.liquidpoker.net/ ) I believe well respected traders on the old FTP transaction forum can vouch for my trustworthness.

The reason I'm looking for a stake is because I had to cash out nearly my whole bankroll (about $2000) to cover some costs and still live comfortable instead of being nearly broke irl ;-) I simply do not have the funds to make a deposit at the moment.

I have no problem dropping limits, I'm a very nitty bankroll player. Right now I only have $100 on Full Tilt and I'm trying to rebuilt playing the $2.25 FR turbos. I would like to play these a little more comfortable and have like 100 buyins at least..

I have MSN, if you're interested in helping me out we can arrange the staking details there or whatever you want.. Thanks guys

So I'm just seeing how this goes about happening. I'm kinda looking for a backer for low-mid to high mid stakes (24-100ish). I've been a winning player at the low-mid stakes all year and am interested in moving up, but since I'm basically on my own, poker has been paying the bills therefore even though I'm a winning player, my roll doesn't grow hugely.

Here is my OPR
Full Tilt
http://officialpokerrankings.com/ful...33441.html?t=2
Stars
http://officialpokerrankings.com/pok...E8A3B.html?t=2

I'm up 12000 on FTP and down 300 on Stars for this year.

I'm not 100% sure I want to be backed as I am fully rolled for the stakes I play at but I am interested in seeing how I would go about being staked and the terms and conditions.

PS
If someone is interested in staking me for a couple of the majors (pref. the Sunday Million tommorow with the giant grtd) it'd be a good start to a staking deal :P.

My aim/yahoo is ahaya1986.

I recently cashed out my roll from Stars, I had been having personal troubles, and needed the money. I personally dont have money at the time to rebuy in to stars currently.

I play on stars under the name Asweetime I played the 11 dolla Omaha 8 pl and usually 4 table the 16 dollar Turbos. My sharkscope would be alittle higher if my dial up connection didnt die when I had 8 16's up at once.

Asweetime(stars)

I'm not sure how backing usually goes but I would do a 75/25 type thing and just stick at that level, until you wanted me to move up etc etc.

1. Don't post asking for a staking deal

2. If you'r still going to post, I just want to inform you that you'r probobly not going to get a 75/25 deal saying that you have personal problems and bad internet...

3. Get a job at McDonalds

I'm no longer on ****ty internet, I'm in the Creighton Dorms now on highspeed. I'm not gonna work McDonalds.

Personal Problems, needed money to pay for a transmission for my car.

Hello I'm looking for stake for some tournaments like 55$,109$ or 215$ also rebuy events.
My OPR stats : http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...9DBFC.html?t=2
I won the daily 80k$(chop at heads up match for 13,5k$) and a 33$ but i cashout my bankroll and now i need stake to play some good tournaments on stars.PM me if you are interested.
12-31-2008 , 07:59 AM
Okay, I figure it's finally time for me to expand... wow, this is all happening so fast.

So a quick history about me, I've been playing live cash games and live tourneys for the past 5 years off and on professionally (just making enough money to get by type of thing). Some personal events happened in my life and I decided to start grinding online. It's working pretty good so far, and I got 204th in the sunday millions last week (go check it out, biggest field EVER 16k people and I got 204th... I think I couldda got first but I got unlucky).

So... what I'm offering is a 50/50 chop of anything I make with 100% moneyback so long as I'm ITM. My MTT knowledge is pretty vast and I've adapted really well to online play. My bankroll isn't QUITE large enough yet to consistently support myself for this tourney (because I want to move up in other MTTs without affecting my roll so I'm working on building).

I'll be requiring $215 per sunday millions tourney you'd like me to enter.

Here are some graphs that show my decent ROI for $11 180-man tourneys, I just don't have a very large sample size because I haven't been playing online for very long. The lower RoI's are from STT's and the negatives are from low limit learning that I had to do:





I feel that this is almost a bad deal for me... but I just don't have the consistent roll to afford this kind of gamble. Sure would be nice to win some life changing money. PM me if interested.

I'm new to the site, but a pretty experienced player. My friend plays on PokerStars (charbarj41), and I've learned a lot from him. Last year, after he went on a particularly good run, he staked me 3,000. I played a few smaller tourneys, and then decided to devote 300$ to the 100 rebuy. A dumb gamble, but it paid off and I final tabled for 5k. I continued to have success in the bigger buy-in tourneys. I won the 55 Rebuy for 13k, took second in the 109 Rebuy for 13k, third in the 109 rebuy for 12k, got 13th in the Sunday Warm-Up for 3k, made 1100 in the 530$ monthly Sunday Mill, and cashed in a few other small tournaments. I cashed out about 40k, and afterwards blew the rest of my roll and haven't played very seriously since. I'm paying my way through college and have invested alot of the money, but I'm very interested in getting back into the game. I'd like to primarily play MTT's, but I don't mind SNG's either. If anyone is interested, please message me back. I have no problem allowing you access to my account, and to work out all the specifics I can be contacted by phone at all times. If you're interested, here is my OPR to show that I'm not bull****ting. I've only played on Stars, and my name there is Flappy08.

looking for a full time stake for mtt's $10-75 (obv negotiable). it is difficult to have a particular arrangement in mind without having a dialogue with someone, but 60/40 with makeup seems about right. i play pretty much exclusively on ftp under the name "theman2892". the last 6 months i have had somewhere in the range of 150k in prizes, 50k profit including a 3rd in the 750k for 53k and multiple 30r and 50r wins in the last few months. i am definently a ********* posting newbie, even though i have browsed the forums for a while now. i am a student who has had to withdraw almost all of my funds from ftp to pay for tuition; i consider myself +ev in almost any freezeouts or rebuys on ftp and think that this would be a good arrangement for myself and whoever the backer may be. if anyone has an interest in references/hand histories, please just pm me at your convenience. i would post the pokerdb and opr graphs here, but its just as easy to look up. i appreciate the consideration.

had the time; here is the opr link.
