Looking for a stake, or to sell parts of myself for the WCOOP-06 530NL event. I'm very consistent in MTTs and have made a deep run in the Stars million as well. Currently being backed in even $11 tournaments because I'm in college and can't afford to risk and lose any of the money I have won playing poker or else I wouldn't be able to cover enough of my loans. Have been previous staked by nutshot2 in the Stars million and am currently being backed in $11 MTTs by theskillzdatklls.

I'm looking for either one stake or to "sell" parts of my buy-in to numerous people. Return would most likely be 80/20 backer/backee with that decreasing to 70/30 backer/backee if I make it through 99% of the field and 60/40 backer/backee if I final table and 50/50 if I finish in the top 3. All of these numbers can be negotiated.

Selling parts of myself would go as follows:

Person A gives $100 of my $530 buy-in (approx 19%). If I say make the first level of the money, probably a cash around $1000, Person A would receive 80% of 19% of my cash, which would be around $152. All other scenarios are fairly self explanatory after the aforementioned one.

I'm willing to sell pieces as low as $25.

Others can vouch for my ability to play and theskillzdatklls, my current backer can vouch for my ability to return correct % of deal when I cash in tournaments.

If you have any other questions or would like to get in on part of my action PM me please. Thanks!

Hey guys,
my case might sound kind of weird but neways im a 1/2 - 2/4 6-max player on PP with a good sized roll for the stakes i play. As good as Partypoker is im looking to build a roll on Full Tilt Poker and since its a bitch to deposit money i decided id like to be staked and make someone some money.

Looking for a stake preferable at 1/2 but if u'd rather me start at 100nl id prob be ok with that too. Looking for free reign to play HU and 6max and would be alright putting in something like 30k hands, possibly more depending. Rakeback would not part of the deal. I can 9 table with ease and play poker full time so hand volume is not a problem. Im open to suggestions though so make me an offer.

thanks
Jake

All,

I'm not sure if I'll be buying myself into the majority of the NLH events this WCOOP season. If I don't, I will most likely seek full or partial backing.

Please PM me if you are interested in backing me for any part of the WCOOP, and indicate how much, or which events, you'd be interested in backing me for.

I am posting this to gauge interest. I look forward to any and all PMs.

Mike

Never been convinced by staking deals, however: I am looking for a 3 month deal to stake me at 100nl on Stars. I'm in a rut, I make nice money at 25 & 50NL, but have to cash it out to feed family etc. Deal is:

2.5k of stake tfr to my Stars account for Aug.
I keep 100% of first 3k profits
You get 75% of everything above that for Aug/Sep/Oct
However, I won't walk away until I have a 3k BR after cashing 2.5k per month
You can walk away whenever.
I agree to play a minimum of 50k hands per month, although I normally do more.
FPPs stay mine.
& FWIW:
http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...0E42F.html?t=3

With this joyful minimum of info, I'd really rather do a deal with someone I know

Last 8k hands: 3 days, but it shows some 100nl, which I only play rarely

not trying to be a dick or annything, but if u wanna deal with some1 u know, why not ask them?

and also, if u play 50k h/month...show it, not 8k hands.

Gimmetheloot,

I put a note in STTF OT thread so people I know would check this thread - I don't know which, if any of them, ever stake people.

I start a new PO db every 10k hands because my PC starts to hang after an hour 6 tabling if I don't. I keep records in a spreadsheet. Graph of my cumulative profits over my last 220k hands of 6 max cash, starting with a $170BR: (excludes my MTT winnings)



And after all that, I've redone my estimates, and I think I'm better off without a staking deal, which I was only really looking at because I've got to pay $3k in advance school fees for my son in Sep and I was worried I might not be able to make the extra in time if I stay at 50nl.
07-20-2008 , 05:27 PM
Looking to gauge interest in staking for both FTOPS and WCOOP for the any of 500+ buy in events. I am currently in a Sunday staking deal with a very reputable 2p2er who is willing to vouch for me for these events. Events such as the 100r and 500FO is what I am mainly interested in. Please PM me with any inquiries or offers.

I am looking for a stake for NLO8 100 & 200 full ring. It is my best and most played game and I am overall a winning player. I have references in previous staking arrangements with KCBlitzz which i was staked for NLO8 50 & 100 through him. My backer needed his money back for personal reasons and we ended the stake on good terms in profit and I am looking for a similar arrangement.

Basicly i will keep daily/weekly (your preference) contact with you either through email/aim/phone and let you know where i am exactly. I can email graphs/account stats for verification if necessary. Looking to be staked for a minimum of about 500$-1000$ to be able to build a decent roll from there. Standard 50/50 deal i keep 50% of profits you get 50% and can pull your initial investment whenever you want. I would prefer this be a long-term deal so i could build up ideally to playing 1/2 with my own money. I play roughly 10-12k hands a week and this would be on pokerstars. If youre interested please send me a PM or if i left out any info i can answer any questions. Prefer to talk on the phone so if u want just pm me ur number or ill send u mine.

Looking for staker(s) for FTOPS events to decrease the inherent variance. I'm somewhere on the FTOPS overall leaderboard and I think my OPR demonstrates a high ROI across a wide variety of games. You can choose which tournaments you want action in... I'm offering 85 cents on the dollar.
07-21-2008 , 07:31 AM
Looking for an investor(s) to buy some/all of my action for LO8 online from 100/200 - 500/1000. I am also willing to coach the investor(s) as part of the relationship.

Relationship will be for a set number of hands. I will not sit at a table unless I believe that I am the best or second best player at the table. For anyone who is familiar with some of the games that have been running recently you know that I should have no problem finding tables that meet such a criteria.

If you are unfamiliar with my LO8 credentials I will provide several HSLO8 strategy videos for your review prior to entering into the relationship and I will also continue to make videos during the duration of the staking relationship. I also would be happy to discuss my credentials further with any interested investor.

Please contact me via PM and I will give you my AIM / phone number so that we can discuss this further.

07-21-2008 , 05:17 PM
Hi,

I'm looking to stake a couple of people for $50 or $100nl. I play between 200-600nl and am a 4-5ptbb winner at these stakes over a 100k+ sample, so I would be willing to offer some coaching in addition to the stake.

You must have a proven track record backed up with PT stats. PM me with your history if interested.

Rory

Looking to back SSMTT players and buy pieces of HSMTT players in FTOPS, WCOOP, etc. Im burned out on playing because I suck, so time for a change of pace. For consideration send me some details about yourself including age, current stakes, why you need a stake, and HH's in the PXF Replayer. If you have references, please send them to me. I dont care about your OPR unless its a significant sample.

Well so I've contacted a few staking groups that I know but i figured might as well post in here as it cant hurt. After the end of the summer I am now looking for a new staking contract as Wafflecrush is no more. A little about me:

I'm 22 year old proffessional poker player. I have won alot of money for my previous backers so far this year and am hard working and honest. I have final tabled the million, $2500 FTOPS, Mulligan and 1k on stars. I also had a final table at this years WSOP in the $1500 PLHE and chopped a circuit event prelim last year for 40k (http://www.pokerpages.com/players/pr...chary-king.htm for my live winnings) There are plenty of players who will vouch for me as a player and as a person.

I am not overly concerned about the structure of the deal but please only serious offers. I'm looking to play all the bigger buyin tournies on stars and FTP (nightlies, all the sundays, certain 100r's and preferbly the 1ks as well as full WCOOP staking). Live staking is a plus.

Now that, all the business is taken care of, here are the goods:

FTP:


Stars:
07-25-2008 , 05:00 AM
I’m looking to add 4-5 more players to team Fat Afghan and am offering staking for low to mid level SNGs ($6.50-$27) on Stars. This will be mainly 9 man but I’m open to offers from players of 18-180man SNGs.

I’m after winning players that already have a decent sharkscope record and a willingness to learn and improve, and the time to commit to minimum 400 games a month. I’ll be able to throw in a bit of a coaching although due to personal commitments this won’t be set in stone. Most importantly any potential stakes would need references from other 2p2ers (obv the longer term the better). Please please don’t PM me if you have no one who will vouch for you as I won’t be sending you my hard earned $$$ and you’ll just be wasting your time.

Information to PM me with
A little bit of background information (occupation, how you got into poker etc)
Stars name
Average # of tables played at a time and games played per month
Why do you need backing?
How long would you want/need backing for?

Any successful applicants will be backed by me on a 100BI bankroll with 50 buyins up front and 50 behind. This will be on a 50/50 profit split with me obviously taking 100% of any losses. I’d want a minimum of 600 games from any stakee although if you wanted to quit the deal early any profits would be split 65/35 in my favour.

PM me if interested
07-25-2008 , 02:32 PM
This is a good offer, act fast on it. I am temporarily short rolled, after cashing out and investing, then having a death run w/ my remaining roll. I usually play 600NL, and am a long-term decent winner on that limit. I am looking for $15k to 9-12-table 600NL for 25k hands (1 week maybe a bit more) and keeping 60% of the profit.

I need it only to re-establish a roll for those stakes.

The numbers above are non-negotiable, I believe that its a very good deal as is, and I have some friends and acquaintances I can turn to for a stake, but will not take more then 50% from them and just dont feel like asking them.

If anyone is interested PM me I will provide you all my graphs and stats, and we will discuss all the trust issues. I have some good references and had business w/ other 2p2'ers before for decent sums of money.

Also, Its possible to just buy-off a "share" of this stake, if u dont want/have 15k to invest - I will be ok with having a few investors instead of one.

Looking for small WCOOP staking. I wish I could play some of the bigger events, but due to the schedule I'll be on in September I can really only play events on Fridays and Saturdays. Even so I'm not a big fan of MTT variance so I'm looking to sell some small pieces. Even though it's a fairly small amount to begin with I'm going to sell them in even smaller shares....but feel free to purchase all the shares if you wish. I'm gonna do it First Come First Serve.


PLEASE PM ME TO PURCHASE SHARES.


Here are the events I'm looking to play:


Event 1: Friday, September 5th 2:30 = $215 NL 6max (NOT SELLING ANY ACTION ON THIS ONE)

Event 15: Friday, September 12th 2:30 = $320 NL HU (Selling 5 shares for $20 per share. Each share entitles you to 5% of any prize I win.)

Event 17: Saturday, September 13th 2:30 = $530 PL 6max (Selling 13 shares for $20 per share. Each share entitles you to 3% of any prize I win.)


Unfortunately I don't think I'm able to play any other events because of my schedule. If that changes I'll be posting about it.



And ok.....qualifications. I actually do not play tournaments all that often. I'm mostly a cash player. I have played the Sunday million 5 or 6 times and cashed it 2 or 3 times including one top 100 finish. Last year I played 3 WCOOP events and cashed one: a $530 event.


Since what I usually play is cash here is the last screenshot of my Poker Tracker that I put on imageshack. This is 1/1/08 - 6/23/08 (I'd put red circles around # of hands and winrate - Sorry, it's still pretty easy to read):





I have since played about 40K more hands (about 20K at 100NL and 20K at 200NL) ..... And my 100NL winrate has gone up about .5PTBB/100hands and my 200NL winrate has gone down about 1PTBB/100hands.
07-27-2008 , 12:44 AM
I'm interested in being staked for some FTOPS events. I would love to play all of the NL events and I'm offering a very good split for the backer. I realize the $2500 event is probably out of the question but I'll let it be known that I'd play if the chance was there.

I'm offering a 70/30 split in favor of the backer for all cashes, except if I top three, then we go 60/40.

Here is my OPR for Full Tilt...

http://officialpokerrankings.com/ful...7F6EE.html?t=2

Again, I'd like to play as many events as possible but I would not turn down a single tournament stake, or a small package of events that you hand pick.

First come first serve, you can reach me here via pm if you're interested or if you have any questions about things I may not have covered.

Update on this deal, I decided that $10k should be enough, and already sold $7k. Only $3k left if you want a piece of this action. PM me.
07-28-2008 , 10:54 AM
I am willing to entertain staking offers of the following types

1. Staking for MTT's buy in >100.

We will agree on which tournaments I will play, I will pay the buy in and we will settle up at the end of each week. Split is 75/25 for you. Interested in Nightly Hundred Grand, Sunday Million, and possibly some or all of my action in the WCOOP. HH's will be provided following each tournament, no other qualifications will be presented, I am certain you will be satisfied with my play.

2. Session staking for various games/levels.

I do very well when using game selection at 100NL-400NL HU PLO and NLHE. I am not interested in a long term stake. How it works is we agree on a game/limit/buyin and I play one session. Profits are split 50/50, losses are on the backer. Settle up immediately following session or within 48 hours if backer is not present, HH's available to backer upon request.

Because I will be fronting the money for both methods any backer must either be very well known on this site OR have at least 2 strong references.

Send questions by PM.

Thank you.
