I'm trying to decide what I want to do this summer... intern + summer classes, travel or degen it up in Vegas. This will help in that decision.

Anyone want to stake me for WSOP events?

I've been playing poker seriously for about 4 years. Initially, I played $11 - $55 SNGs, then moved to LHE. I've played around 2 million hands of LHE and beaten up to 50/100 consistently. The vast majority of those hands are at 10/20+. I don't have enough hands at 100/200+ to prove I'm a winner.

I then played NL 6max cash for a bit and beat up on 3/6 for a while. Maybe around 200k hands of that. After that, I shortstacked for about 1 million hands. My WR for all of these is very solid. I have always been one of the biggest winners at any game I played regularly. The shortstacking in particular would come in handy in tournaments. I am, without a doubt, top 10 in the world at <20bb nl play.

Tournament play has been very sporadic. Whenever I'm bored, I'll play one. My record is not proven in them.

I have cashed out in the mid 6 figures over the past 4 years, nearly all from cash game play. PT stats and graphs are available on request, although I might have some trouble getting my older stats. I'm willing to play a bunch of tournaments to prove myself as well.

wow

why hasnt the pic of kurosh been posted yet?

Here's the deal people. This kind of thing isn't allowed in MTTc, but now is in the marketplace. However, if I move this thread over there it'll get deleted for not being part of the main thread.

So unless you turn this into a community hatefest for kurosh and put that picture of him up I regret to say I'll be forced to delete the thread.

Sorry, you should add it to the FAQ. I checked all those things. Didn't even know the marketplace existed.

Who would you rank as better?

Edit: That was directed at Kurosh not awice.

And now the thread has been saved

No problem at all. I'm just really high and saw an opportunity to derail a thread with that crazy picture.

I guess being good at 20bbs means you like an extra 20lbs

Not going to name any names, but obviously the pro shortstacks at 5/10+ are all good. There are only about 3 or 4 of them. I am very secretive about all things related to shortstacking for obvious reasons.

...

why do you need to be staked when cashing 6 figures?

good point gid,

these staking requests seem like those annoying phone calls/emails from touts in the sportsbetting world.

If there is serious interest, PM me and I will explain why I want staking.

I really don't understand how this has not gotten more love. Easily Shaundeeb's best post in months. (& spelled 100% correctly too!)

OT

uh, while this thread is up... i am probably about 10x better at donkaments than this kurosh character, someone stake me for live tourneys pls thx

20lbs? yeah... in her bra

While I'm enjoying the kurosh poking... this is actually a pretty weak point.

well played

yah if it's going to be anywhere might as well be there imo.

wow i have no idea. maybe he doesn't want to wager $100,000 of his own money in poker tournaments?

Seems pretty dumb given fact he's top 10 in world <20bb.

lol yeah, I guess he's total crap with 25 bbs.
