Brian Hastings 2014 WSOP - 10k mixed events and 50k 8game Brian Hastings 2014 WSOP - 10k mixed events and 50k 8game

Hello, my name is Brian Hastings. I've been playing poker professionally since roughly 2005. I've primarily been successful playing online cash games (I still play them regularly), but also have plenty of MTT experience, both online and live. I started playing mixed games around 2008 or so. I wasn't very good at first, but I've put a lot of work into improving my mixed game play, both at and away from the tables. All 3 of my cashes at last year's WSOP were in mixed events, including 4th in the 5k O8 for ~96k. I've played most of the mixed events over the past few years and am familiar with a large portion of the player pool. In the 50k, I've made day 3 the past 2 years but came away empty handed both times.

I've been living in Fort Lauderdale, Florida for the past year and a half and have cut back on traveling, mainly just playing online and playing live poker in South Florida. I am excited for the WSOP though, have a house booked, and plan to play a ton this summer.

Package A

Event #10 - $10,000 O8
Event #13 - $10,000 NL 2-7 SD
Event #18 - $10,000 Razz
Event #22 - $10,000 HORSE
Event #32 - $10,000 NLH 6max
Event #38 - $10,000 Stud 8
Event #61 - $10,000 Stud Hi
Event #64 - $10,000 PLO

Total buyins - $80,000, 1.1 markup

1% = $880
5% = $4400
10% = $8800

Package B

Event #46 - $50,000 8 game mix

Total buyins - $50,000, 1.05 markup

1% = $525
5% = $2625
10% = $5250

I plan on keeping at least 20% in the 10k events and 10% in the 50k so the tourneys are still bigger for me than a $1500 with 100% of my action would be. Let me know if interested and/or if you have any questions.

UPDATE - SOLD OUT

Private investors bought more than I expected, everyone I listed in the above post plus Atlantis1 have action. Paypal, BOA, or cash in Vegas are generally easiest payment methods, I can communicate with everyone via PM.

Thanks for all the interest everyone. Unfortunately there's no waitlist, as the private investor who bought most is willing to buy what's available, so if someone backs out I will just go to him for sake of convenience.

Package A

waxies_dargle - 1%
trambopoline - 5%
tyler11 - 5%
Atlantis1 - 1% PAID

Package B/50k

trambopoline - 5%

Posting to update payment status for those who posted ITT. Would like to have it all squared away by the time I get to Vegas on the 1st. When it gets closer, I'll shoot friendly reminder PMs to those listed above if necessary.

Thanks, but I think I'd be in line/higher with many other posters in this forum if the package were for the same events. Just trying to be fair based on my experiences in these tourneys and how I anticipate the fields to be.
