Hi Ash,
This CANNOT work. Sorry to be blunt, but that's how it is.
Just play for fun, & concentrate on getting your degree.
Once you have done that, & if you really are confident you would be a winner at 1/1 (as you say) then borrow £500 from the Bank, or family, or get £500 off a credit or Debit Card.
I'd offer extremely long odds that you cannot make a living at "Live" 1/1.
If you can -& I hope that's the case - you are a very rare beast indeed, & you won't ever need a backer.
Giving away 90% of your (presumed) profits just ain't gonna work.
You are addicted to poker, as so many of us are. You gotta keep those feet on the ground though, the chances of you being a winning "live" player (allowing for exs) are extremely small.
Good luck, whatever you do, but please don't go down your intended route, it will end badly.
Hi Tikay, thanks for the response!
I was only planning on giving away the big percentage at first to prove I can win. Also where you say going down the intended route do you mean the 10/90 split or just staking in general?
Also I have no ambitions to play 1/1 for a living I will continue with my degree and play 1-3 nights a week as a part-time job which is also my hobby which is perfect.
