I am looking to sell some of my action for the upcoming WSOP and side events in Las Vegas.
My name is Michael Ross, aka “Rossi” and I live in Las Vegas, Nevada and am a full time grinder. I have been playing poker since 2007 when I left my job with McDonalds Corp of 16 years. I worked my way up through the ranks in the store, and then was promoted into the training department where I worked for several years in Phoenix, Denver, and Las Vegas helping train new store managers. I then returned to the operations side of the business and worked as a supervisor in Phoenix. My knowledge and experiences I gained through my career with McDonald’s was second to none, and has helped me succeed in so many ways with my poker career.
I have been a member here since Aug of 2009, although I have been involved in other online forums since 2007, and have been selling action since 2008. I have sold several packages on 2+2 in the past, along with many packages on PartTimePoker.com with zero incidents in moving money quickly to investors at the completion of each package.
November 1st, 2010 I had the opportunity to attend the weeklong poker camp hosted and coached by several online and live players in Las Vegas. The camp was run by Jesse Wilke and Kevin Murphy, but also had other coaches/players coming and going on different days to coach on different aspects of the game. Throughout the week we spent several hours analyzing various MTT hand histories, as well as covered strategies and tactics involved in MTT play. We also covered mental toughness including many routines and day to day things that we can do to build and maintain our mental toughness factor, and apply it to poker and to life. Here is the link with all the info from this camp:

I am currently backed by Imawhalestaking.com with Shane Sigsbee and Eric Deutsch and have been with them 2 years now, posting double digit ROIs on US facing sites in MTTs, with no incident in moving thousands of dollars back and forth each month. That backing deal also included some MTT coaching with 2+2 member and online player/coach "Protential" who has his own coaching site now, and many great results both as a player and a coach. I have more recently transitioned into full time cash game grinding, still with the Imawhale stable, and have been being coached by 2+2'rs Skraper and Benjamin_Barker since last August. They have helped me tremendously to improve upon my mental game of poker, as well as the technical aspect of playing true deep stacked poker. I also had the opportunity to attend a Webinar with the author of "The Mental Game of Poker" Jared Tendler as part of my coaching with this stable, which helped solidify the general principals in the importance of our mental game.
Here is the link to my current PG&C thread detailing that transition and journey:

The package will include:
WSOP Bracelet Events: The Collossus, The Millionaire Maker, The Monster Stack
Planet Hollywood 500K events
Aria WPT500
Miscellaneous RIO or other venue dailies and satties as my schedule allows (with a separate bankroll of $2500 included in the overall package bankroll amount in place explicitly for these events. These events will be up to $565 per buy in and can be from any of the Vegas venues)
Special notes:
*All unused bullets or unneeded entries returned to bankroll 100%. Each MTT has 2 bullets factored into the bankroll, with the exception of the ARIA WPT500 which has 3 bullets factored in. Obviously we don't anticipate using all these bullets, so we should be able to return funds to the bankroll in that regard.
*Any MTT in the schedule can/may be skipped if it is interfered with by making a Day 2/3 or if upon my discretion I decide not to play that particular day.
*Any seat to the Main Event can be played for this package should I choose to
*If we are in profit of at least $15K (not from a satty to the Main Event) I can choose to play the Main Event for the package should I choose to.
The dates/schedule and specific event buy in info can also be seen on the google doc link here:

Total Bankroll needed $14,715. Looking to sell up to 70% of this action. It should be noted that this bankroll includes at least 2 bullets to all MTTs, so the actual bankroll used hopefully will be much less than this.
This package will sell at 1.2 mu as follows: (Rounded down to nearest $)
10%=$1765
5%=$882
3%=$529
2%=TREE-FIDDY (Rounded down from $353 obviously)
1%=$176
Can do BofA, PP, or cash in Vegas.
Also just for formality for the thread any investor must be ok with giving info out to me for tax purposes should I have any large scores I get a W2-G for (+$5000). This will cover both sides for tax purposes and will help maximize profits for full payouts to everyone as well. If a particular investor does not wish to give out this information, I will withhold up to 30% of the taxable income off the top of their portion of the bankroll to cover the taxes myself.
Updates will happen via twitter @RockstarRossi13 and/or Facebook. Thank you for your interest everyone!
Reserves for now. This will go if we sell 60%.
This package is open for suggestions as well if interested and potential investors have any, feel free to post them ITT.
