Hi everyone, my name is Eric Conti. I am 34 years old and have 4 boys including 12 year old twins I adopted 2 years ago. I have been playing professionally online for about 5 years now. I am currently backed online by SS-TP on twoplustwo (Sure-Shot-TP on stars, Jennnyy19 on FTP), and am part of a large group of players who attend weekly skype sessions with some of the games top mid/high stakes tourney pros. This arrangement has been in place for over 18 months now.

I play on the screen name OnlyPlayRagz on Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars. I have had success in no limit holdem but I think my edge is much higher in mixed games. I have won Sunday majors on both sites in no limit( Sunday Warmup, Sunday Brawl win and hu chop), and have won a WCOOP bracelet in razz, and got 2nd in FTOPS razz, along with many other wins and final tables. Because of my kids, my live schedule has been limited, but I did go to Vegas last year and I played in just 3 WSOP events and cashed in 2. I also placed 3rd in a Venetian Deep Stack HORSE last summer while in Vegas.

I'm looking to play a full schedule this summer for the first time ever, and concentrate on what I believe to be the soft mixed game tournaments with a mix of no limit as well. Based on my past online results and limited live results, my markup will be 20%, which seems more than fair based on other offerings I have seen. I am looking to sell up to 80% of all my action in the 2011 WSOP.
Schedule:
6/1 1500 FL Omaha 8
6/4 1000 NLHE
6/6 1500 NLHE
6/8 1500 NLHE shootout
6/10 1500 HORSE
6/12 1000 NLHE
6/13 2500 8 Game
6/14 1500 Stud 8
6/16 2500 10 Game
6/18 10,000 Stud 8
6/25 2500 Razz
6/27 2500 Omaha8/Stud 8
6/30 1500 PLO 8
7/2 1000 NLHE
7/5 5000 PLO8
7/7 10,000 NLHE ME

Total buyins: 47,000 +20% MU(9,400) = 56,400 for 16 events.
1% = $564
2%= $1128
3%= $1692
5% = $2820
10% = $5640

CONDITIONS
1. Payments: I will be in Florida until I leave for Vegas. I can accept cash(chips) in person. I will also accept a bank or cashiers check, Paypal, bank or ACH transfer, or bank wire. If there is another way in which you would like to pay please contact me and we can work something out..

2. In the event of taxable cashes 25% will be withheld until the appropriate paperwork is completed as required. There should be no problem doing this quickly after completion of the series and if this is a problem, let me know ahead of time and I will try to work with your needs.

4. Updates will be posted in a rail thread and I have a twitter account for updates as well. Pictures of tourney receipts and other interesting pics will be provided. My cell number will be given to investors and they are free to call anytime for any reason as well.

5. All money won from all events in this package will be combined and returned accordingly to all investors. Returns from the package can be picked up in person after I bust the Main event in Vegas or I can send them back from my online backer. I plan to be able to do this within a couple days of ending the package and returning to Florida. I can also send out cashier’s checks if wanted or other arrangements can be made.

6. If I don’t reserve or sell at least 70% I may decide to cancel the package and return all investors money at a minimum of 1 week before my first event.

Thanks to all resreves so far. I will be contacting you soon by PM if I haven't already to arrange payment options.

I've known Eric/Ragz for the past year and a half, and can say that he is definitely a good investment for the upcoming WSOP series. He has a very solid background with mixed games, and his fundamentals are top notch. His past results prove this, and speak volumes. Look forward to sweating him to a bracelet this year.

I am reserving 1% of the run good.

I've also known rags for several years personally. I get to play fly on the wall as I watch him pwn regs. Seen the bracelet, seen the final table a bazillion times in some sick events, seen his other wsop events and wish I could rake like that.

Ugh, wish all of my money wasn't locked up online. Ragz is one of the very few people I'd really prefer weren't at my tables. Don't know the guy, but have played a fair amount with him. Investors should feel confident/excited about their purchase.
