Hey guys,
I recently ended my staking arrangement with CBiscuit Stables (Colin + Dave) and wanted to pop in here to post a review about everything and also to leave some kind words.
I was staked two separate times by CBiscuit, once back in 2012 for a month on BlackChip Poker, and just recently on Bovada from July 2014-March 2015. Both stakes were for MTT's ranging from $5-$215 (AVG buyin was ~$20), as well as a small amount of time spent on cash at $0.25 - $0.50 and $0.50 - $1.00.
I have not been staked by other groups, but I have had close relationships with others who have been staked, and I have to say that the level of professionalism and courtesy extended by both Colin and David are exceptional! They are extremely reliable and friendly. I never had any issues being paid out money or receiving top -ups. They take an active interest in your personal life and also are more than happy to help with coaching/improving your game.
If you are looking for a stake with a diverse group of players, want to improve your game, and like to work with professionals who know what they are doing...then CBiscuit is the stable for you. I literally can't think of a single thing in our relationship that needed to be improved. As I progressed up stakes and started making more money, they initiated a % increase on both MTT's and Cash winnings. How sweet is that? Whenever I had periods of time where I couldn't play very often, they understood and did not put any pressure on me for x amount of hands or tournaments to be played.
All in all it's been a terrific experience with these guys. If I ever need another stake I know that they are the first group I will approach... and I'm confident that I'll have a spot waiting for me as well. Cheers guys! Good luck to everyone else out there on the search for a staking group.
