Hey people,

I notice a lot of people going for the 100% staking thing recently, and was just seeing if there'd be any interest for myself.

It's a new years resolution of mine to build a bankroll from just €250 after taking a nasty downswing at the end of 2008. It's going okay so far, but I doubt by February these tournaments will be within my bankroll!!

About me:
I have been playing poker professionally for effectively 3 years. Usually found playing heads up STTs though I have always had a knack for MTTs; I'm just not a fan of their time consumption and general variance.

What I'm asking for:
£495, which is a 100% stake, for 70% equity in these tournaments. Will sell in whatever chunk size you desire.

Feb 6th - £300 + £30 Deepstack, 10000 Chips, 45 Minute Clock *£50K GUARANTEED* (capped at 270 runners)
Feb 7th - £150 + £15 No Limit Freeze Out, 5000 Chips, 30 Minute Clock *£10K GUARANTEED* (capped at 135 runners)

Obviously I ideally won't be able to play in the £150 event as I will be deep in the £300, in which case obviously £165 stake will be returned in full.


Track record:
http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=53177

Have been rather quiet in the last year and haven't played a whole lot live. Have played 3 of these £300 DTD tournaments, and although have done absolutely no good in them, I certainly think I'd beat them in the long term...

Certainly have a fair amount of experience playing at this level, and my final table:tournaments entered ratio is pretty good.

Feel free to ask any questions. I will PM you details you require should you desire to stake Smiley

Cheers,
James Atkin

Wasn't expecting such fast response Smiley

10% gone via PM

40% left

Thanks guys...

(Note that I made an edit as I mistakenly left in that'd I'd pay the juice. Was originally gonna offer 60% and pay the juice myself but thought 70% would garner more interest)

I just lost a lot of money towards the end of the year, €7000+ in the last couple of months on a sick run. Just to get confidence back and ensure that I dropped levels rather than just saying I would, give me bankroll management. Rather than dipping into savings and continue my bad steak. Lots of reasons. Plus I want to see if I could grind a living out of poker when things aren't going well. If I can make £1k a month playing stupidly low stakes, it's just nice to know.

Anywayz, thanks for investment man!

Maybe Flushy is mad at me for getting so close in Barcelona but just missing out Smiley


70% gone, 30% left...

Thanks Micko!

80% gone, but I'll put selling on hold as someone has PM'd me wanting 10% and Flushy told me to keep him informed of future stakeage after Barca so I will reserve 10% for him if he should want it...

Will PM details to stakers once it's sold out...
