Hi all,
My name is Neil Harvey and I am 20 years old from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. I have been playing poker full time for around 18 months now. I started mainly just playing live cash games but the games dryed up round here and i moved to online poker. I never really had a set game, i played a bit of everything, but mostly a cross between MTT's and cash games. I had a few nice scores at the end of '09 and beginning of '10 which made me believe i was the dogs bollocks. I felt i didnt need to improve/grind more. I soon realised this wasnt the case a few months ago, and started to play only online MTT's with the odd live MTT in there. However, i dont think i am sufficiently rolled anymore to play these as the downswings are pretty hard. (I am not actually broke right now but could be if i have a few more bad months)
I am currently looking for a full time backer to play MTT's on both poker stars and full tilt (and any other to be honest) within the region of $10-$50. I would like an agreement to continue for a long period of time i.e 6 months plus. The deal will be full backing, on something around a 50/50 or 40/60 split,(this is up to the backer obviously) of course on make up. I am able to play a good volume of MTT's, and will be looking to play in the region of 100+ per week, playing atleast 5 nights out of the 7.
A possible schedual would look something similair to this, as i would usually start regging around 5pm U.K time and reg for atleast 4 hours.

8.30pm 55$ 25k GTD
8.30pm 11$ 10k GTD
9.15pm 26$ 18k GTD
That schedual has total buyin's of around $400 (rebuy's dependant.) However, that is 16 chances of winning between $3k and $10k.

I created the buzzz20 account mainly to play cash games on, as missing out on rakeback on this would be rediculous. However, i now only play on the buzzharvey22 account as i think it is now linked up, but having spent thousands of points on hoodies etc i have to wait to find out.)
I am in decent profits over the sites without actualy having grinded that many tournies out. I believe i can maintain a good ROI with added volume.
FWIW here is my live record. Havn't played a huge amount of live MTT's either, maybe played the DTD deepstack 7 or 8 times. Played 3 GUKPT side events, and played 1 Coral British Masters £500 main event.
