If any low limit NON US donks are interested in running some Step SNG stakes on Party, feel free to PM me. I use to play these all of the time and unfortunately since I am from the US I haven't gotten to play them in a few years so I decided to put some people in them.

Good STT stats will help a lot if you are trying to get this stake from me.

When you PM me, make sure you include your s/n from any site you play on. There is no reason to lie about your s/n because if I am interested in staking you, I will have you confirm all of the s/n you sent me.

The only way this stake is possible is if you have a Stars or FTP account with money on it (Preferably Stars). I will send the money on Stars, you will play the stakes on Party and you will ship winnings back to me on Stars.

We will discuss the stakes later but will likely begin from step 1 and move on up. The backers cut will be discussed as well and will change in favor of the horse, as more money is made during the stake.

Two professional poker players looking for an investor in this years World Series of Poker. The return will be 70% of net profit plus initial investment. The investment needed will be around 100k. There are 54 events being held with various buyins ranging from 1500.00 to 10,000.00 The events that will be played will be the ones with the best ROI% based on skill level of the two professionals. We are in the prime of our career kind of like Michael Jordan was with the bulls when he won 6 championships. This is a serious inquiry. The first player is Greg Giannokostas, do a search on google to see past results. The other player is Brandon Lee an online poker phenom that is ready to explode(his online results can be provided). If you are serious give me a call at (404)422-1700 so we can discuss this in more detail. Ive got many references, online players as well as big tournament players.

Hello everyone,
I've been a long-time lurker on 2p2, but have never really participated in any strategy discussions so far (which I regret). My name is Ryan, I'm 22 years old and a recent college graduate.
I have a winning record on Stars, which I have used to supplement my income during my college career. I have continually cashed out my roll, which has left playing small stakes throughout this time.
My name on PS is dabash08 and psconvert on FT. Here is my OPR: http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...9ED4D.html?t=2.
I haven't been putting in much volume at all in MTT's for quite a while, but I have been playing quite a few lower SNGs. My sharkscope stats:
1191 games
16% ROI
$2700 profit

I am looking mostly for stakes for many of the MSOP on Full Tilt that is coming up next month. Please PM me if you are interested, thanks.
05-27-2008 , 02:20 AM
Hello, I just won a 10 cent Omaha tourney on Stars last night, out of 240 players. I also took fifth and 12th in consecutive 10 cent 360 man tourneys, also for 10 cents each.

Problem is, I took my seven bucks and lost it to a straight flush when I had the nut flush in Omaha.

I am looking for someone to stake me 50 bucks or so to enter 1.00 multitable SNG's. I hope you will see my potential and keep supporting me as we win.

PM if interested.
05-28-2008 , 12:44 AM
I am looking for a backer for HU NL SNG's and HU 1-2/2-4 NL Cash.

My screen name is "henry 27" on stars. I have been playing there and generally crushing the HU games on Stars for over a year now. I am considered to be a HU expert, but due to variance and cashing out a large portion of my bankroll during the month of April, I am extremely cash poor at the moment.

I am looking for a stake of $3 - 5K in order to properly play HU at these levels. I will start at 1/2 and work my way up to 2/4. I am for real, and pride myself on being an extremely honest and ethical person. You can review my sharkscope stats under SN "henry 27" on pokerstars.

I am open to all offers. I do not post here often, but if you ask around and for those of you that are not familiar with me, you will find that I am a HU regular on Pokerstars with a solid win rate.

I look forward to hearing from any/all interested parties. Please PM me, and I can provide personal e-mail address and further contact information.

Regards,

Jeff

I am looking for a backer on FTP for mtt's $26 and up and also 100nl-200nl fr.
id is backroadbural on FTP and have been playing for quite a while.
Recently withdrew a majority of my online roll and am looking to get a backer so i do not have to grind lower limits. I have aim and msn and will talk with any interested backers and answer any questions.

http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...F962D.html?t=2

These are my stats for my 2 separate accounts on ftp and pokerstars! My screen name on both sites is letsgoskiing and I am an 18 year old student from rhode island! I withdrew the majority of my money from ftp on may 11 and I have not received it as the bank transfer has not occurred yet and it has been already 2 weeks plus. But I think soon I will have another big major cash! I especially feel I have an edge in the 11$ rebuy tourney on stars as I have come close to finale tabling that twice! I am confident in my abilities and I will be able to play allot more during the summer with no school work! So if your interested in backing me for 26$ mtt on ftp or stars pm me! Those are the two primary sites I play on!

I can video chat with anyone or aim someone online if you would like to talk to me some more to learn about some of my aspirations and goals are for nl hold em, plo, razz, stud, etc.. And I can also play all the games in horse.


rui

p.s. I have read some poker books and I am subscribed to a poker training site online and I have only been playing online for money since like the summer of 07 when I was 17 years old at the time!

This guy is a lying, thieving ******* and should not be trusted with your money. He has rolled on previous investors and I would not be surprised to see him do so to future investors.

If you invest your money in this guy, you should expect to get rolled.

I believe we are still waiting for the money you won while "fooling around" seems you still owe money. The fact it took like 6 months and you never finished like promised, YET you found time to play for your other backer!
I am not a regular poster here but I would be very careful backing stuman123.
05-29-2008 , 12:17 AM
lol, Stuman is legit and fine and a good horse for anyone imo
05-29-2008 , 12:39 AM
Not much I have to say but that I thought I was in fair agreement with that stake. Also, I do not appreciate attacking my character. If there any issues to be talked about, I'd appreciate you contact me ASAP. Thanks. -Stewart Yancik

FYI - he did not roll anyone, but got backed for the FTOPS last fall with the intention of grinding out $60 - 45 mans on Stars with the remaining money if he failed to make money. After the FTOPs were over he got privately backed and basically ignored the people that backed him in the FTOPS. He never honored his end of the agreement, but he did not actually roll anyone. There was a disagreement over some SNGs he played that should have gone towards the agreement though.

He is a good player, but lacks the maturity to honor an agreement. All of this is well documented and he knows it. Its a shame he burned down that bridge.

Looking to get staked for $50NL 6 max on Pokerstars for 20 buyins. I am a winning player (5BB/100) at the $50NL level but I haven't played it in a few months. I cashed out/monkey tilted my whole roll after a bad run in SNGs and want to stick to cash games only from now on. I've never been staked before but I assume $1000 is probably a good place to start since $2000 for $100NL would probably be too much to ask for.

I will be home for the next few weeks to take care of an injury and will be able to grind a few tables for 8 hours a day. Conservatively assuming 5 PTBB/100 and 300 hands an hour (4 tables) at 8 hours a day will give us 16,000 hands a week so in 2.5 weeks I should be around $2000 which I will ship back to you so you earn 100% on your return. This is assuming my luck runs neutral and I don't get a break even stretch, but I will send you the $$$ back in $500 increments so then you don't have any worries. Then if you wish we can continue the same deal for $100NL and further.

I've been pretty much a lurker for most of my 2+2 time, but I have full confidence in my poker abilities and I can demonstrate them if you have any doubts. PM me if you are interested and we can talk further, but I promise you that integrity won't be an issue.

When he took money from people based on a promise that he would do something and then failed to do what he said he'd do with that money, he effectively rolled/stole.

And Stuman - if you didn't want your character attacked you should have followed through on your word.
05-29-2008 , 06:26 PM
Hey I'm looking for a 1k stake tonight only to play on stars. I should finish at about +3k after about 8 hours. If I lose I will send 500 back to be fair. When I hit 3k I'll send back 2k if you want me to stop there. Pm if interested. Thank You

Hello. My name is Jeff and I am a successful part time poker player as well as sports handicapper.

I am looking to play pretty much any type of game for any limit you are comfortable in staking me in. I am not specific in the type of game you'd like to stake me in and the amount, as I am very comfortable playing many types of games and limits.
I enjoy playing NL and Omaha High/Low the best. I believe I can make the most profit in the shortest amount of time playing those 2 games. I am also a solid MTT and SNG player with a successful record of cashes.

I don't have much preference in the particular site you'd like me to play on, but I do enjoy playing on Pokerstars as they provide and offer the best action around.

I have A LOT of experience both playing online and live CASH, SNG, and MTT games. I multi-table all the time and I am a Short-Handed specialist. I travel to Las Vegas to play poker as well at casino's such at the Wynn, Venetian, Ceasars Palace, Bellagio, MGM.. so on and so forth.

I'm extremely seasoned at many games: Limit Holdem (upwards of 100/200), No Limit Hold em (upwards of 10/20 NL & PL), Omaha High (upwards of 5/10 NL & PL), and Omaha High/Low (upwards of 5/10 NL & PL). I've also had a lot of experience and success playing
high buy in MTT's (upwards of $1,000) and SNG's (upwards of $555) during my poker playing career.

I first started playing poker sites such as Intertops.com (cashed out 70K in less than a year), PartyPoker (played sparringly, but cashed out 35K in less than a year), and Pokerstars where I play now (cashed out 15K in a few months).
I have not included my live cash game winnings as I have never kept track, but I DO know I have won quite a bit. =)

Please contact me for more details and information if you are interested. We can work out the details together. Thanks!

Hi there im James and 19 years old.... looking at getting staked for ~nl 200 hu and 6 max...prepared to play makeup as long as it stays above nl 50 although i dont really expect to have to. I would prefer it if i could play on a euro site such as ladbrokes/everest/betfair just due to the sheer difference in the quality of games.....don't have many posts on here but have been a lurker for way over 2 years and CR subscriber for 6 months. Reason for asking for a stake is just to nullify variance a little as i have started to get into sportsbetting and looking at day trading and my BR isnt really big enough to manage all 3 simultaneously....and as a uni student the 5k swings can be a bit much when i have to absorb them all. I realise trust has got to be the main clincher when playing staked and tbh im not really sure what i can do over an internet forum to prove my honesty but i guess we can work out conditions etc later.
I think i must be one of the biggest winners in my games i play... and am planning on playing pretty much professionally over the next 2-3 months during the holidays (stake or no stake) and looking at hopefully 100k+ hands.

below are my stats from ladbrokes over the last 3 months mostly hu with some spells of 6 max as my pokertracker levels are a bit screwed up...pm me for more details etc and cheers for
the consideration.

Confirming here that StuMan did not follow thru with his agreement with multiple investors on PTP in a BAP, and avoided them completely for a very long time.

To this day, the longest thread in the appeals section on PTP is dedicated to this.

Anyone considering backing him here, certainly deserves to know this.
