I can vouch for Pocketthr33s being trustworthy. I am the one who directed him to this thread ( thats why he just recently signed up ). I have backed him in a few tourneys and he has done quite well in them. Just want to let you guys know you wont be getting scammed...

I'm looking for stakes to the events at the WSOP, pm me if interested.
05-13-2008 , 11:41 PM
well I guess I will give this a try in hopes of some good coming out of it. Never been a member of 2+2......honestly just always was on p5s and ****. But recently have been sorta looking around for someone or people that back. I never even knew about this topic, i saw a link on p5s and i just spent about the last hour reading through 31 pages lol. Basically im 22, been playin the game pretty hardcore for about 3 years.....have had some descent results. My main site has been stars....but recently with my bank closing bank deposits its been near impossible to get money on PS. So a few months ago I started playing a lil FTP. had a lil success, won a few tourneys, did well in the FTOPS 2600, but nothing to gawk at. Basically with the new UB schedule out giving that now a few good tourneys worth playin (the snipers and 30re at night, and a few others), the endless tourneys going off every hour on FTP, and stars runs several tourneys with good value for the mid-high stakes player daily. I know bodog doesnt offer p2p xfers and what not but I believe bodog is quite the beatable site, I have played there the past few weeks and had some alright results. Iv got like 175k in winnings over a 1600 sampel size on stars. I have got like 70k on FTP but like i said only been playin on FTp for about a half year. Won the 150, 100 (30k), 50 (15k), and deep run in the 2600.......and a few other average scores. Sharscope is ehh I guess, stars- 2000 games at 12k prof with a 12% ROI. Basically, I am looking for someone who is maybe interested in backing/staking me in some of the mid-higher buyins. Freezeouts mainly with some lower rebuys. Possibly the 50 freezes and up, with the 20-30 rebuys with maybe the occasional 50re. I would also feel comfortable playing sngs...turbo ones, but feel I am much more comfortable playing mtts and feel if structured enough and put on a schedule of what ones I should be playing, I feel I could do quite well. Like I said I am not sure what information I should be putting down, cuz I am new to this and am just trying to get my name out there and to start talking with some people. If anyone is interested in talking closer please dont hesitate to AIM me- AAPokerStudAA, my email is JasonPaulYost@hotmail.com. I am looking forward to talking to anyone.....doesnt hafta be about staking or backing, just like talking to people about poker. Thank you for taking the time to read....sorry its a little long. Runescaper03-Pokerstars, JasonYost- FTP, Jasonyost- AP, jasonyost - bodog, yost - ub (keep in mind only really played on xtars with a descent sample size, but would love to get playing on the smaller sites cuz I know I could crush the mid stakes tourneys on those sites......UB. the dog, and Ap)

hello,
a friend of mine wants to stake me, because my whole bankroll is frozen cause of tusk.

i have heard that the normal way is 50/50, but how long does such a deal nrun?

so if we assume he stakes me 1k, is it ok to say we quit the staking when i paid him 1850 back?

i have only seen the 50/50 but no period.

please send me pn with all the data needed for a normal staking with 1k
greets

Still needing to be staked. i dont have posts and im willing to prove my trustworthiness. i guess i have had some files stored on my hard drive so i put them into poker tracker and i found my bb/100. im not a big poker traacker guy and never really used it. I understand it pretty well now after messing around with it the past week or so.

my bb/100 is 7.47 over 100,000 hands of NL holdem. my best bb/100 are when playing hu. i have poker tracker pics if anyone is interested.

I used to play 10/25 nl hu. i am looking to play some 200 nl hu 5 or 6 tabling it on fulltilt. i can potentially do 100 nl as well.
05-14-2008 , 11:54 PM
I have never really put much thought into a staking deal, since most of my playing has been offline, and I have a full time business to attend to. Lately I have been thinking about getting an online roll started, but my money is usually better spent with the business. I mostly play live (though I used to play online enough pre uigea to realize the skill difference in limits, variance, etc. but not enough to have built up a roll). Since then I have not really played online that much, and stuck with the few weekly home games.

I used to play a ton at Resorts East Chicago when I still lived up that way. Main game was the well known soft nl1k game, with the occasional 5/10 limit game while waiting for a seat at the NL tables. Since moving from there (and away from any decent casino) I have been sticking to some really soft home games the local golf course manager got me into.

Only full ring cash games they play are 200NL that people who bust out of the sit and go start up. I have always prefered Heads Up play, and usually always get some HU action whenever I go. Highest we get going is 500nl, and I usually stick to nl200 unless I am running good.

I have a comfortable/dependable stream of income right now, and I do not need to withdraw any of the roll for a long time for living expenses, and would be open to a long term deal where the backer can setup the account, and give me a bump when I am running bad, but otherwise with this setup would have no real need for the whole roll. We could come up with a decent reserve to keep in the account, and a good starting limit. I realize lack of hand history online is going to hurt my chances of getting a decent deal, so I would have no objection to starting off at a smaller limit until the backer feels confident enough to bump it up.

I am really only interested in being staked for NLHU games (sit and gos + cash). I have never really thought about trying to build a roll etc. but I have always loved learning more about poker, and feel like I have a good grasp on game theory, and though I never built a roll I am well aware of how to properly maintain one.

I would really like it if the would be staker happened to be a HU specialist.
If you have any questions, feel free to PM me a messenger name I can reach you at and we can go from there.

Hello you guys!. I'm new here as of today. Been playing in the 2+2 pokercasts at pokerstars for the past few weeks with the same name i go by here. After reading the opening post chance for new players to get stakes doesnt look to great, but i'm just looking for a small investment which may be a big return. I've been playing @ pokerstars for many months and feel my game is improving with time. I have been part of some good forums and look forward to getting to know the guys around here. Anyways my plan for stakes is to just play in some small mtts or sng games so you guys can feel me out and i can prove my worhtyness. Thanks for consideration and PM me here if interested.
05-16-2008 , 10:22 PM
Looking for someone to stake me for 20$-100$ MTTs on pokerstars or full tilt. You can stake me for 3-4 tourneys and see how i do before you give me a bankroll.

I read this forum for a long time but i never felt like posting so i just created this account. I am a cardrunners member and have watched all mtt/cash/sng videos. I am mostly a live cash/mtt player but recently i started playing online. I busted my bankroll because i started playing 25/50 with a bankroll for 5/10.

Anyway im not going to scam you because i dont really need that money alot, i will just be a lot more disciplined when playing with other peoples money.
PM me for details

thx

I am a 21 year old college in Auburn right now and unlike most people looking for a stake I am certainly not busto right now. I have had a fair share of good luck along with improving my game which has resulted in wins in the Fifty Fifty on Stars and the 3-Rebuy two night ago. While I am now essentially rolled for the bigger tournaments it is really out of my RL bankroll to play this high of stakes without a backing deal.
What I am looking for is a potential staking deal for any tournament from the $109+ FO and $22R (would want some approval and some evaluation before going any higher). So obviously the goal would be potential staking for the Sunday Majors. I have been an active 2p2 member for a couple years now with most all of my posting being done in SSMTT. If you have any questions of inquiries please let me know and I am sure I can find plenty of people to vouch for me as being legit as I have hosted several Challenges in the MTT Community.

My OPR

Please Let me know if you are interest in backing me or know of another potential backers.

Quick note while I am looking mainly for a long term deal I would be interested in possibly doing one of the sunday majors tomorrow as I am considering playing anyways.

I am looking to get staked for tournaments on Stars,5$ $11 $22 $33 with guaranteed prizepools and 3k starting chips and alo for some 3r, my name on Stars is Serega23, my OPR: http://officialpokerrankings.com/pok...844EE.html?t=2 .

I can be trusted with the money, a lot of my posts come form money transfer thread, where I helped quiet a few people with transfers, and also got help with transfers form other people. Even though I am a total uknown, I value my reputation, and I am an honest person.

Let me know if you are interested, you can PM me or AIM me. My AIM is luckboxxx24

To be honst, i never really knew there was such things to keep track of poker stats and stuff.. Been playing online for a while then i found the forums..

I'm willing to do a 50/50 + sb.

Howdy neighbor, my name is Cameron i post, and follow mainly in MTTc, with the rising cost of fuel, and food ( a man needs his food) I r to broke to continue my usual low stakes donkament playing. I am looking for a stake on Full Tilt (pstars tilts me too hard) into either some low stakes 6 handed tournaments for NL or into the afternoon 24+2 PL tournament.

OPR

My OPR is poor but i feel that drastic improvements to my playstyle over the past few months, and the added pressure of playing with someones money could make this venture profitable.

thank you for your time, and have a nice day.

hi, just a quick question.
what would be a "usual" staking deal if you stake someone for MTTs, but not for the whole buy-in but 1/2 or 3/4 of it?
if my horse get's in the money I get back my buy-in part + what part of the win? (i know it depends on the deal, but what would be a "classic" number)?

Hello all my name is Craig Rice and im seriously looking for backing for the W.S.O.P. and or certain online mtts. I have excellent results which you can see by searching the databases, my name on stars is crice25 and my name on FTP is willybetmore. I also have some sucsess live you can search that as well. I had a prominent backer that i lost due to reasons not related to my honesty or my ability. If someone is serious i can provide excellent references for my integrity and my ability. I have found myself in a pretty poor financial shape due to trusting the wrong person. I am currently in Vegas and would even be interested in playing some sessions of live cash if anyone is interested in that. Im sure this sounds pretty sketchy and odd, but i really am a standup presentable person. I have alot of experience, i dont tilt, and im very honest. I have very solid references which i will divulge if p.m.ed. Serious replys only please, im only looking to play stakes that i can no longer afford to play on what little roll the people i trusted left me with. Thanks for your time, give me a chance just by looking at my stats on stars i belive you will be impressed by that and also by my references if you p.m. me.
05-20-2008 , 03:54 AM
Hi im new to 2+2 looking to get staked and coached.. whatever u are willing to stake me. PM me if you are willing or interested, i know im new and have no one to vouch for me, so my hopes are low but from what i have seen this site seems to operate on honesty and i want to contribute to that.... I have been playing live poker for 4 years with moderate success. Thanks and i hope to hear from someone and we can make some money!

WSOP action wanted!

Well let me first start off by saying that I know nothing about backing/selling action. What I do know is how to play poker. I graduated with a Biomedical Engineering degree but chose to give that up to play poker. I have been playing professionally for 4 years now and have managed to do very well for myself. I am a high lhe cash game player (normally play 100/200 and 200/400, but have gone up to 1k/2k). My tournament play is somewhat limited to most tournament players. I've probably played 25-30 larger buy in tournaments. My biggest live cash was in the 2007 WSOP when I finished 5th in a mixed event.

Now to the reason why I am looking for some help. I am someone that follows strict bankroll management and believes that is the way to successfully make money. Over the years I have been pulling money out to invest and would like to keep that money where it is. I own my own place and my own business. Last year I was not staked for the WSOP and bought in to roughly 20k in events and cashed for 40k. This year I am looking to reduce variance and am seeking someone to back me or to buy some of my action. If someone is looking to back me for about 10 wsop events, then I will do that. If people are wanting to buy action, I will only sell action to events larger than $1500 buy-in.

On a side note, last year I made about 40k in side games during the month I was out for the WSOP. If you want any cash game action I will also be open to those offers. I have been a winner at 200/400 for each of the past 3 years.

All offers are welcome as I will continue to look for people to help me out.
05-21-2008 , 04:37 AM

Hello,

I'm looking for someone to stake me a starting bankroll on Full Tilt poker.
At the moment I have not the refunds on despotting money on this poker site.

History:

I played alot of poker around ~4 years ago but unfortunately my school required me too stop playing poker and fully concentrate on my education.
I worked my way up (after depossiting $500) from small stakes untill 400nl with bankroll management.
Now I am in my senior year and have alot of free time to start playing poker again too bad I don't have the money to give myself an playable bankroll.

What am I looking for?

I am looking for someone to stake me an starting bankroll to get my game going again.

4-5 posts uh like wtf?

I just found out about 2+2 and am indeed an rookie.
When I played poker back then I played it without any forum, I am willing to change that sinse alot of usefull information is shared at places like this.

Why does someone wants to stake you or trust you?

You don't have to stake or trust me, I am asking for one and I can't give you much more than my word.
If I start making profits you will get your investment back plus any profits (depends on how good things are going).

I know I can play good poker and ofcourse there is place for improvement but I think my past showed me I ain't a donkey.

I got experience, talent and a strong love of the game.

If there is anyone interested please leave me an private message I am also willing to give out my msn.

Regards,

Tim

My alias is nmmart4 on fulltilt. I have a mac so I can't do sharkscope or pt graphs. Im a hu sng specialist of late. My ROI at $80 is above 50%. Im looking to be rolled to play these tournys. PM with interest. (sharkscope graphs tell my story). I haven't staked anybody on the site but i have traded money with people on 2p2 for credibility purposes.
05-24-2008 , 05:17 PM
I'm looking for backing in MTTs $10-$109. If spread across both stars and ftp I can play a ton of mtts/week. I do have a solid reference--please ask me for it. I just cashed out/busto-d my entire roll and I play better and more focused when I'm being staked anyway. I run good on FTP tho. PM me.

Hi I am looking for a stake to play 100nl. I currently am in college going to Eastern Mich. and I play 50nl and 25nl right now for some little income. I don't play very much because me roll is not that big. I am a 26bb/100 winner from 25nl-200nl combined over 65k hands or so. I just make enough money to pay some bills and at the end of the month I am just so low I cannot move up in stakes. I just need one little boost or something to get me going.

I can provide s/s of my PT and anything else you want to see. If interested give me a PM.

I do a have a couple of references also.
05-25-2008 , 12:44 PM
Hey,

I am an MTT player with a reasonable degree of success for my level.

I'd love to play the Sunday Hundred Grand tonight, but unfortunately i'm broke untill I can get to the bank on Monday

If anyone's interested in staking me in tonights tourney please let me know. My msn is daniel_marks91@hotmail.com

My OPR is good and I finished 355th in this tourney two weeks ago.

Thanks in advance.
05-25-2008 , 05:08 PM
Hey i am new here but but i've been listening and playing in the pokercast freerolls for about 4 weeks. My best was 48th / 1100 and some. I've been playing about a year on stars and im trying to improve my game as i go. I have been playing online for many years. I would be interested in a staking relationship if possible. If i could play a stake or more today (25th) I'd like to try the $11 20k 3000 starting chips @ 7pm eastern. Since this is coming fairly soon for people seeing this later i could try the $11 10 minute levels @ 9:15pm eastern. I've done quite well in both of these finishing in 300th / 3000+ more then once in the 20k. In the 10 min levels i have finished 18th / 1400+. These can be verified on OPR. I look forward to this oppurtunity and hope it can be profitable for both sides. I will be logged in here for the remainder of the night and more so just PM me if interested. Thank you for your time
PS. ill be willing to do these games with 50/50 +sb at the minimum for stakers favour. I will edit this and say if someone has chosen to stake.
