Hi my name is Michael LaTour and I'm looking to sell up to 60% of my action for this summer at the WSOP, the Venetian DSE, and the WSOP Main Event. Here's the schedule I'm looking to play:

Note that this schedule has been altered from my earlier thread. I dropped the $2500 Venetian, added a couple smaller WSOPs to the beginning of the package, and dropped the markup across the board, particularly for bulk purchases.
Background:
I have played online for about 5 years but it wasn't until about June of 2010 that I made an effort to take it seriously and possibly as a living. At that time I had a $300 roll, started at $2/180 turbos, and went from there. I play on PokerStars as "mikeandy" and my stats can be seen here:

Some individuals I will be linking this thread to won't know much about OPR, so for them here's a highlight of some online cashes:
July 31, 2010 $55 Nightly Seventy Grand 1/1464 $11,250
September 10, 2010 $55 Nightly Seventy Grand 7/1298 $2275
September 29, 2010 $11rebuy $60k Guaranteed 3/2431 $6590
October 23, 2010 $55 Nightly Seventy Grand 2/1615 $11,822
February 2, 2011 $162 Nightly Hundred Grand 9/810 $1,713
March 28, 2011 $109 Turbo $35k Guaranteed 1/1039 $19,014
April 2, 2011 $11 rebuy $50k Guaranteed 2/1737 $7,342
I started to hit the live circuit in September of 2010. Those results can be seen here:

FWIW the $9k score was actually a $15k 3 way chop, and this year I also had a 1 in 10 "Survivor" cash for $4k that isn't listed. I also won satellites to the WPT Main at the Borgata last year and the Harrah's AC WSOP-C Main but did not cash in either. On the negative side, I spent 8 nights for the Harrah's AC trip, along with 10 in Vegas for the Venetian, so obv bricked the remainder of those scheduled events. Overall, I played 22 tournaments from September of 2010 to the end of the year ranging in buyin from $200 to $3500 and had profitable results. Besides tournaments, I've also played hundreds of hours of 2/5 and 5/10 NL at Turning Stone, Atlantic City, Foxwoods and Las Vegas.
I have run 3 BAP's successfully thus far in the Marketplace. The first of which I shipped the $109 turbo for $19k and paid out over $8500 to investors with no problems for nearly a 1k% ROI. I will also be playing in the upcoming Borgata Spring Open in which Maxkatz bought my action.
Payment Options (in order of preference):
1. B of A Transfer (reduced live markup)
2. Cashier's Check (reduced live markup)
3. Cash in Vegas (reduced live markup, need references or well known 2+2 reputation)
4. Transfer to mikeandy on Pokerstars
Notes:
1. No taxes will be withheld provided necessary information is provided.
2. Some events may be skipped due to factors such as Day 2s, final tables, and fatigue. Anything unplayed will be refunded with markup.
Any other questions feel free to PM me.
Thanks for reading,
Mike
