Hey guys, Chris Kusha here again ready for this next (and possibly last) summer out in Vegas before getting a more steady career underway. I've been playing poker seriously for 6 years now and feel I am only getting stronger as I go.

While not a professional, I do make a majority of my income playing poker and have for a few years now. I haven't sold much action since last years WSOP since I tend to just play tournaments on my own money where I feel there is good value. I think a lot of tournaments here are going to have great value, just out of my price range a bit.

I will be living off strip, nearby to a bank so I will only be carrying necessary funds for the day's events/cash games. I also dislike pit games and don't party a whole lot so you can expect me to be focused and careful with our money.

Hendon Mob - http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=196026
Last year I had cashed for $9759, which came out to around 36.8% ROI.

I live in NY so I have limited access to the regulated online scene in which I mostly play cash while on there, I don't like playing on the unregulated sites much though I have done a little. I'll post some links to my previous online results though being 5 years old at this point I don't know how relevant that is anymore.

Full Tilt - http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...620CA.html?t=2
Merge - http://www.officialpokerrankings.com...A6F71.html?t=2

I currently play 1/3 and 2/5 NL at Parx and Borgata, 6/12 OE at Parx, 10/20 LHE and 20/40 Stud at Borg and a little 1/2 or 2/5 PLO as well. I've always been a mixed games player and now I'm trying to take advantage of more profitable spots outside of just no limit. Online I play 50-200NL and 1/2-4/8 mix on PokerStars NJ as BruteJustice, Borgatapoker as makeitraine, wsop NJ as makeitrain, and wsop NV as Julius187.

Schedule

Package A (prelims)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

Cliffs: 13 events including 2x Milly Maker, summer solstice and monster stack, selling 75% total at around 1.18

1% = $242

Package B
WSOP Main Event @1.2, selling 72%

1% = $120

I will not being selling more than 75% of either package.

Payment
I can accept Chase Quickpay, Paypal, or cash at Borgata/parx. I don't need to collect money until mid May so reservations are fine for now.

Taxes
In the event of a cash over $5000 in profit of a particular event, W-9s must be provided or 30% will be withheld for tax liabilities.

Other
This package also is only for prize money won in events and does not include endorsements, sponsorship, bracelets etc. Bounties from a tournament ARE included as prize money won.

Chip counts and updates will be from my twitter feed @TooBusyWinning. I will also use the google doc to post results/refunds and you can follow along and see how much your individual piece is worth.

I will possibly be playing other events not listed, mostly small mixed games MTTs at other casinos (8-game comes to mind, thanks for making that same day as milly maker ). If the series goes well and I decide to play something else and want to sell for it, investors here would get first priority.

Didn't include the Colossus or the Crazy Eights and won't be playing either. They took what was already a fast structure and made it dog**** this year so I won't be wasting my time with that nonsense.

References - P-Aire 146, Jimbobwe00, Jersey Jim, BigO6377, SBlum2711 and I'm sure many more.

This has gotten long enough so if I forgot anything, feel free to ask and thank you for looking!

so far 3.5% of Pack A reserved

Would you be able to post your cash results by stake post black friday?

Sure, these are more limited as I wiped everything with the poker journal iOS 8 debacle last year and I haven't been the most diligent with tracking everything.

1/2 NL : $39.27/hr
1/3 NL : $11.90/hr
2/5 NL : $28.65/hr
20/40 stud : $89.96/hr
5/10 NL: $22.22/hr
6/12 OE: $150.88/hr (small sample and I made 2 racks in 90 mins the other night running pretty hot)
5/5 PLO: -$110/hr over about 12 hrs, got stacked 3 times for 500 in one night

The 2/5 sample is the most reliable, and my 1/2 rate is inflated as a decent amount of my 1/2 play is in soft and sometimes no rake action home games. I'll update if I can find and import my old database I know I saved it somewhere.

Edit: found my PG&C thread from last year that had a lot of cash stuff from then... I should maybe start posting in it again.

Res 1 of each. See you in all of those events.
Have you got any mixed results? Or like do you play HORSE/Stud mtts different to cash games? e.g. in Stud8 and Razz limping etc.

You got it. No live mixed results yet, though I have won/FTed MTTs online in razz, horse, 8 game, PLO8 and NL/PLO. There's just not a lot of opportunities to play many live mixed MTTs.

I did play the horse last year and bagged day 2 top 20% in chips and felt like I was +ev in the field. In terms of strategy, as the tournament gets more shallow I think it's correct to not push very thin edges in order to reduce variance, like being a lot more selective 2betting EP openers in razz for example. If it looks like the pot will go heads up either way and I clearly have the best of it now, it might be worth it to not push that edge immediately (I'd still reraise people in steal spots though).
