Having compiled my schedule for the summer, I'd now like to invite 2+2 members to reserve shares for my 2012 World Series of Poker and Golden Nugget Grand Poker Series package. My name is Magnus Martin and I play as 'Giffordonian' on Poker Stars. I am looking to sell 70% of this package.

This will be my third trip to Las Vegas - 2nd time playing the WSOP. I played a few NLHE/Omaha events last summer, running deep in the $5k PLO8. I definitely think it will be a major advantage for me to have that experience behind me as I go in search of some big scores. Playing in Vegas is exciting and I can't wait to get back out there.

Although predominantly an online pro, I do have plenty of live experience and will be preparing hard in Europe before I venture Stateside in June. I have a trip to Cannes organised in late March, when I'll be hitting the tables. Then throughout April-May I will be playing in live games here in the UK.

I have played professionally on Poker Stars since 2010. I started out by grinding $16-$60 PLO8 SNGs, earning leaderboard status on Shark Scope.

My tournament experience is vast. I've played over 5000 MTTs on Stars and have been paying particular attention to NLHE MTTs throughout the last 6-12 months. I've discussed strategy with guys like 'cashryders22', 'breakurface', 'ulduffer' and 'andrew23122'; and had coaching sessions with 'betgo' and 'bigdshaggyj'.

Online I've played hundreds of thousands of PLO8 hands, logging successful results in SNGs, MTTs and cash games. The introduction of a weekly $530 PLO8 event on Poker Stars has provided great practice for playing higher stakes MTTs and I've had excellent results in this tournament.

I also have a decent amount of live experience at FLO8. I've played a bunch of limit cash games in Vegas and Atlantic City and always performed well. Having played a $5k event last summer, I really enjoyed the deep stacked structure and this is a big incentive for including the FLO8 event. I intend to play the Weekly $215 FLO8 Sunday nights on Stars regularly in preparation. I will also be discussing FLO8 strategy with high stakes cash game player 'RDMR'.

My MTT results show that I'm improving all the time - most of my biggest scores have come in the past few months and I expect that trend to continue as I continue to work hard on my game.

I am now officially accepting reserves. I will probably look to start collecting funds in April sometime, with a view to getting all the money in place and to start registering for events well in advance. None of the tournaments in my schedule overlap, so there will not be any issues in terms of events clashing with each other.
