I would be interested in talking to someone about being staked. I've been playing seriously for about 10 years and have had good results. The reason I would be looking for staking would be to cut down on variance.

My opr stats are here - http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...D417E.html?t=2

I have also had success in 6-max 100NL (2.5PTBB/100 over 60K hands) but had to cash out my roll to pay some bills.

I'm interested in speaking with backers and talking about a deal for either cash or tourneys.

Thanks for the time.

Peace

My name is Justin and I'm looking for a stake in mid-high buy-in MTTs. (30+) I'm a 19 year old college student who has been playing online for ~4 years.

I post often in ssmtt, really the only place I do post, where I have somewhat of a reputation/chat with people outside of the forums. My AIM is heythereimjustin and we can discuss specifics. The reason I'm looking for a backer is I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of equity by playing within my br, which is currently fairly low due to necessary life cashouts. I feel very confident in online MTTs at all levels I've played (109FOs, 20r on regular basis in the past)

current opr:


opr on old account i haven't played on since May '07:


I also have at least a HH or two of tourneys I've gone deep in and would be glad to submit them for your review.

thank you.

Dear Staking Forum,
I am a mid stakes HUSNG player. Currently grinding away at $22 sngs. Here is a picture of my sharkscope stats as of this morning.




As well as a link to my OPR which has recorded a win + a 2nd place finish in the 22 hu matches in the last 120 days.
PayPerChase OPR
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stake: Heads up MTT stake to include the $22 Heads up matches at 9:15 daily as well as the 2:15 when my schedule allows it. Additionally, the Sunday $215 Heads up matches.

The stake would ideally be for a semi-large amount given that the Sunday $215 is included. I would be fine with a staking arrangement where the backer keeps the majority of the stake money in there account and just releases money to me when necessary.

I have AIM. Pm me if you are interested in looking into anything.
Thanks,
Jordan

Hi,

I'm looking for a stake for $26/75 FO's on FTP.

Here is my OPR (For some reason it is missing about 3k worth of profit I made earlier in 08, please PM me if you'd like to see info for that):

http://officialpokerrankings.com/ful...ACB3D.html?t=2

Thanks for your time.

Looking into possibly being staked for larger online MTT's (100FO+,50R+). For the past few years, I've mainly played low-mid stakes tournaments on Pokerstars. For 181+ entry MTT's I have played 760 tournaments, with a 108% ROI and an avg. buy-in of $27 (including re-buys) for a total profit of ~$22k. I can provide a PokerTracker screen shot of my results to anyone interested. I also have another 15k games of STT and 45, 180 SNG's for another $22k in profit. These stats are strictly Hold Em.

I also have another $5-6k in profit playing Omaha H/L and HORSE. I don't play these quite as often, simply because the prize pools are too small. But I would be interested in playing the larger weekly buy-ins and special events such as FTOPS or WCOOP.

I'm very comfortable multi-tabling, and often play sessions for multiple hours playing 12-20 tables continuously. For the last few months, my main games have been the 45 man SNG's at all buy-in levels, and the 180 man SNG's at the $12 and $36 level. Along with those, I often play 5 or 6 MTT's a day and recently won the $109 $50k guarantee on Stars.

I plan to greatly increase my MTT volume and would like to include Full Tilt tourneys as well.

I have a couple references from respected 2+2ers and will provide them via PM to anyone interested. If interested in discussing a possible backing arrangement or if you have any other questions please PM me. Thanks.

OFFERING STT LOW LIMIT STAKES TO A FEW PLAYERS

Over the last year I have been solely dedicating my poker time to playing mid-limit STT's, mainly the 6-man. I am top-5 (according to s-scope), and unfortunately only can play 15-20 hrs/week.

I am looking for a few motivated rookies that currently play STT's. You must have a good understanding of Stt's, bubble play, hu play.

The goal would be start you small @ the $6 and as you do good, you move up. Not only am I offering to back you, but to teach you as well. Basically you will get paid to learn. Because I feel this offer is so attractive I am going to be selctive.

THe following are all positives, but non-essentials:

1. A good graph (not necessarily winning)
2. Good 2+2 post count, and some strat posts
3. References
4. Live in NY or FL.

Pm me and we can talk more.

Hey everyone,

My name is brad. I usually play all day everyday. I've gotten away from mtts but would like to get back into them on a serious level. I am looking for a stake in mtts on pokerstars. You can opr me if you'd like. my sn is 'backrhodes.' I've always had a lot of success in my life in mtts, but like i've said, i've gotten away from them over the past 8 months or so and have dedicated my time to sngs and a small part of cgs.

I'm looking for someone who wants to stake me in the 109r's (14:00/20:00) tourneys and nightlys. I'll also throw in other tourneys as per your request if you would like. I don't like to have a ton going bc i like to pick up tactics on players and whatnot. Therefore, i like to keep it to ~4 tables or so.

If anyone is interested, please pm here on 2p2 and i'll get back to you with my AIM or better contact info if you would like to discuss a deal. I currently have a staking deal for $570 hu sngs that i will be keeping, but i would love to add a few mtts on the side as well.

Feel free to contact me about my references as well. I currently stake a few players who i like to think of as 'big names' . but they can vouch for me that i'm a very reliable and honest person.

Thanks a lot everyone. Hope to hear from you soon. Take care.

-backrhodes

Myself and MasterLJ will be looking at staking some players at HU/6max/FR cash games, possibly HUSNG's.

We'll probably be starting off at uNL and SSNL

The deal would be 50/50+stakeback including RB. There is a possibility of some coaching to be included as well for HUNL

Requirements:

-You must have someone that knows you well enough to vouch for your reliability and character...this person must also be someone we are willing to accept as your vouch.

-You must be able to prove to us you are a winning player via graphs or PT screenshots

Once we get all this in order we will be asking you for real life information so that we can contact you if needed (after we decide to stake you obv). We will also ask you to make a 30-45min video of yourself playing poker. At this point we will decide if we would like to stake you or not.

Pls PM myself or MasterLJ with:

-Name
-What you'd like to be staked for
-Reason for needing a stake
-The contact details of the person who's vouching for you
-Graphs and PT Screenshots

Please DO NOT pm either of us if you can't provide these details as those pm's will not be replied to.

Thanks guys we look forward to hearing from you

Hello all,
I'm looking to get backed for a few of the sunday $650 PCA qualifiers on PokerStars
I'm a MSNL reg (2/4-3/6 on Full Tilt)
Here is a link to my table ratings page:
http://www.tableratings.com/overview/youonlylivonce
And here is a graph of of my winnings since i began playing cash about 1 yr ago:

Here are my PT stats for 6 max NL:

Here is my OPR (although i rarely play tournys anymore) for FT and Stars:
http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...A7C77.html?t=2
(2$ HUs are my anti-tilt)
http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...BBB36.html?t=2
I have many references in the Internet Gambling trading thread and one in the HSNL thread.
If i win the seat to the PCA I will take the seat and send you 1/2 of its value ($7,150) + a % of me in the PCA, although this is negotiable.
I most certainly would be +EV in these fields because of the large number of sattys running to them, thus staking me would be a wise investment.

Thanks,
Ryan

Hola 2p2,

I am a MSNL 6max player and am looking to take up staking. I have created a new account to hide my identity but if you are selected then you will get to know who it is.

You can apply for stakes in any of the following areas.

NL 50 - NL 400, FR, 6m, or HU. The higher you want to play the better you need to be.

$12-$70 Sng's, same applies here.

$11-$200 MTT's. And again here.

What I am not staking for.

Limit
Micros
Any type of game other then nl holdem other then POSSIBLY PLO. But if you want PLO you're going to have to prove your worth it.

If you have less then 500 posts (yes that is correct, five hundred), and have been a member of 2p2 for less then 3 months. No need to apply. In fact id like for a mod to just remove any application that doesnt fit that bill but if thats too much work for them I will just ignore you.

No need to pm me, ill pm you if I want you. I am not going to be responding to anyone I dont initiate contact with.

In this thread you just have to sell yourself to me. I have no idea how many people im going to take, depends on the talent projected to me.

Good Luck.

Go

\ I will WRECK MTT's& SnG's(esp. turbos) in the lower spectrum of your range, I have been successfully (and profitably) staked in the recent past. will give references if needed.

come on, stats, graphs, etc im not working here its you that wants the stake.

I would like to get staked for NL50 - NL100 - NL200 .

Here are stats and garphs since December.

Most experienced in grinding 50NL though



Pm me. tnx.

I'm looking to get staked for 100-200NL. I don't have stats from previous computers (where I successfully ran @ 7ptbb/100 16 tabling 25-50NL, ~100k hands), but here are some stats and graphs that I have from ~1 month of action recently:





It's a bit swingy, and the winrate isn't ideal, but the 40k sample was filled with a lot of icky spots of run-bad.

Also, I don't know if this matters at all, but I'm not life-busto; however, I do have a lot of outside expenses, and I think that a stake would be a good way for me to play poker with minimal financial risk and would benefit both myself and the backer.

While I may be relatively new to this poker community, one can gain a sense of my strong grasp of poker concepts and strategies through reading my posts in uNL; I have also befriended several uNLers who would attest to aforementioned skillsets being true.

If you have any questions, feel free to message me.

I'm looking for a stake for MTT's $50-$1k on Full Tilt and Stars if necessary. I play a ton of tournies and I play them well Basically, I cashed out a lot of my roll and I don't want to risk more than 1% of it per tourney so I came here to look for a stake. I'm very trustworthy and honest with cash and anyone that knows me will vouch for that statement. I also am interested in live staking. Although I have no plans to play anywhere live in the near future, I'm open to any offers. Also, I don't need it immediately or anything so you can get to know me first if you'd like. My AIM is xiballerix and you can PM me here anytime, I'm usually around. I've never been staked before, but I look forward to the opportunity. I can pull up more stats and give more info on myself if necessary, just let me know.

Looking for a stake in the sunday million tomorrow. One time deal. I beat 45 mans and 180s for around 40% roi over a very large sample.

I vouch against that statement.
Why trust him with any amount of money when he can't even make good on paying up $20...
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/62...s-10-a-302419/

I'd be willing to start on the lower end of this spectrum until I reach a certain profit. I've been a consistent winner at MTTs for years and am always reading/posting on 2p2 and improving my game. I play almost solely mtts and so don't use pokertracker etc. since I feel OPR covers all information well, however I have used pt in the past and would pick it up again if required. My OPR screenshot is higher on the page.

You said something about 500 post or what not, but instead i can probably give you a solid reference,

I would normally apply for PLO 200 but i don't really want to put my stats up here so if you want them just ask and i send them via email or i can PM to you,

Anyway I'm looking to get staked for $50+ tourneys mainly on FTP because that's where i am most days, I can put in a good sample every day if needs be,

Why I need a stake? Well, I'm probably rolled for 50+ tourneys but as I'm a bit of a br nit i would much rather be staked for them, i normally play the $26 tourneys and have some success in them, I might as well tell you my success in the FTOPS PLO event where i came 21st Winning something along the lines of $2.5k or something, I beleive that i could of done much better but as i qualified for it via satellites im happy, right i dont know what else to say,

So i look forward to hearing from you,

Thanks Simon

looking for a stake in the 11dollar 10k gtd on stars and the 11dollar 200k gtd. I've cashed 3 of the 4 times ive played the 200k. I'm a solid player and I'm willing to go 60/40 in your favor if anyone is willing. I play as ChahlieK on stars, my sharkscope is below. PM or post within if interested. Thanks




http://www.sharkscope.com/SharkScope...06&version=201

I have another account on 2+2 with more posts Let_it_rain and use this because I like it more

I thought that we could come to an arrangement because I was previously beating NL200 (only for about a month) when I had to cash out my monies pm for details (nothing degen).

So I am posting all the graphs and stats I have which comes to a sum total of **** all, but here it is. I'm hoping to pick up a steak for NL25-NL200(6max).

Here it is:





This is me playing NL25 from a while back:



The graphs are me playing 6-9 Tables, I am a fulltime student and have a part time job. I think I could play between 20k-60k hands per month depending on how busy I am at uni, 60k being during holidays and 20k being during exams, generally about 40k.

I am still very much a student of the game and am constantly trying to improve my game and plug leaks, as I would like to quit my part time job and when I graduate have a healthy supplimentary income. So this is something that I take very seriously.

Looking for a possible stake for sngs on Stars....I currently mostly just play on FTP. You can check my graph on FTP for sngs and I would be hopefully playing the same on Stars (2 table, 45 man, and single table PLO8 and NLHE). Thanks.

Well, I've been putting this off since I expected my university refund check to come in well before now. However, as the check isn't coming, and I could use some income, I figured I would see if anyone was interested in staking me.

Who I Am

I am a finance student attending school in Chicago who has consistently shown to be one of the biggest winners in uNL recently.

My Poker Experience

I've been playing poker seriously for about a year and a quarter now. I've been living off of poker income exclusively since March, and I've mostly played 25nl and below with some brief forays into 50nl to 200nl before I was ready for those levels (back in December).

I don't have a comprehensive graph of my poker playing for the year/summer, but I have a few graphs, and according to my Pokerstars cash audit, I've cleared a little under $4,000 this year, all at 50nl and below. I'm willing to provide that audit or request that pokerstars send you that audit to anyone who shows serious interest in staking me. In the meantime, here are the graphs I do have:







Why I don't have a large bankroll

As I stated previously, I've been living off of my bankroll since March, and, as I started at the lowest micro-limits possible, the growth of my bankroll has been frustratingly slow and nonexistent at times.

I was also unable to play poker for approximately two months prior to now as I'm currently the Treasurer for my Fraternity and I run cross country; these two commitments tied up most of my time prior to and during the beginning weeks of the semester.

Now I have more free time to devote to poker. However, as I've been living out of my bankroll and not replenishing it over the past two months, it is almost completely decimated. I'm also expecting a somewhat substantial (to me) refund check from my university soon, but the finance department is painfully slow, and I'd rather use that money for living expenses so I don't have to withdraw money from my bankroll.

Why you should stake me

I'm a proven winner in uNL to the tune of hundreds of buyins over hundreds of thousands of hands during the past few months, and this would translate to thousands of dollars in your pocket during the course of the stake.

Even though I'm not extraordinarily active on 2p2 at the moment, a lot of people in uNL know who I am and have played with me extensively, and I'm sure I could find someone to vouch for me if I asked.

I would also offer makeup to my staker and would be willing to provide and confirm personal information to anyone who staked me.

What I'm looking for in a stake

I'd prefer to discuss most of the details privately, but I'm preliminarily looking for a somewhat short-term stake of maybe 150k to 200k hands over the next two months to start.

This would preferably be mostly at 50nl with me playing 25nl anytime I'm warming up or otherwise think it would be a wise move to move down. I'd also like to potentially move into SSNL around Christmas break whether that be as part of a staking deal or on my own.

PM me with your Skype, AIM S/N, or email address if you're potentially interested in staking me.

Thank You,
Nick
