Brief summary of your life outside of poker? I attend the University of Missouri, and am currently enrolled in all online classes which was done to loosen up my schedule for poker. I also have played hockey for the last 9 years of my life and continue to do so at Mizzou.
Why are you seeking backing? I do not have the bankroll to be able to support myself and am looking to expand myself as a player and develop my skills. I definitely have the ability to take down tables especially the ones you are seeking players for.
Have you been staked in the past? If so, tell me about it, and the circumstances under which you left. No, I have not been staked in the past.
What do you hope to achieve from the stake? The goal I hope to achieve through this stake is to help increase not only the money that you are bringing in, but to help build and develop myself as a successful player. I also am doing this to help build my own personal bankroll but dont have the starting funds to be able to run enough tables to get a good variance, I feel that this stake would be able to provide me what I need to be able to provide solid play through playing a higher volume of tournaments.
What games are you applying to be staked for? I am applying to be staked for both FTP and Pokerstars. Im open to all SNGS you listed but my prefferred SNGS are the following, FTP-all 3 buy ins for the KO's(3+.30,6+.50,12+1), for the 45 man SNGS I would prefer to play the 5+.50. For STARS my prefferred SNGS are the following,STARS-
I am open to play in all of the STARS SNG in your buy in range, on stars I do prefer 180 man.
What is your anticipated volume? (Hours a day? Days a week?)The anticipated volume would be anywhere from 6-11 hours a day, 5-6 days a week.

Is there anything else you think would benefit your application? This can include other sources of income, books you've read, training sites you are subscribed to, software you use to improve your game, etc. My main source of income for the last 6 months has been playing poker in local poker tournaments and cash games. I have not been able to subscribe to any training sites or recieve proper poker coaching due to lack of BR.
