Asking for a ickle stake...

[Jim-D]

OK I've debated wether or not to post this for a while now as I'm a bit of a proud man and it feels a little cheeky tbh,

I've not played much poker over the last few months due to having to withdraw my roll for a trip to Vegas and learning I'm to be a father for the 1st time, but I've read every PHA thread on here and studied every training video i can and I'm now itching to get back to the tables,

Now i know this won't be an exciting prospect for many as i wont bring big or fast $'s but i hope more of a steady profit,

I'm looking for a roll to comfortably play the $10 stt's on stars (I say stars as that is where i've played most of my tourneys but will play any site of backers choosing) I'd ideally like this to be a long term thing which could allow me the opportunity to move up in levels (at the discretion of the backer) but would gladly play until the end of this month and if you choose to end the deal I'll ship back 50% of all profits and the stake

My name on stars is IamAlive if you'd like to check my sharkscope.

I know this is a rather vague proposal (never done anything like this before if you couldn't tell) but i'll answer any questions here or via PM for anyone interested.

Gulp...

Jim.

how many sngs you will play a month?

personally if i were looking to back someone to play sngs I would want them to do it at a site they get RB and prob a softer site than stars, are you prepared to play on blonde and split the RB?

also I am not an expert on staking but I do like matt's way of doing it, saying he wants to win $X then the deal ends, shipping profits every month until he wins X. would you be prepared to do that and if so how much is X?

how many buyins do you want?

also what ICM work have you done/ what ICM software do you use?

I'd be looking to play between 80-100 per week when my girlfriend is on days, 100+ per week when she is in nights

Yes i would be more than happy to play on blonde and more than happy to split the RB.

If this is the way that a staker would like the agreement to go then of course i'd be prepared to do this, as regards to how much is X? that is something i'd need to think about and talk over with potential backer.

I'd require a 50 buy in minimum, And as regards ICM i have yet to really study it tbh but i am going purchase sitngowizard or the such and study throughout this process.

Im also interested, my first question though would be why the $10 stt's over the $5 ones? Only asking because of the roi graph on sharkscope.

[Jim-D]

I suppose I'd like to start at the $10 level as I've found there to be very little difference between the 2 from what I've experienced and read about and the higher buy in should bring with it a higher profit?

if you cant beat 10$ with less than 50 buyins dont bother imo.
i may do 20 but id expect more than 50% for that!

[Jim-D]

Is 50 buy ins too conservative? i thought the 50 buy in was standard for stt bankroll?

Bit harsh imo.
If he puts any sort of volume in 20 downswing will be a regular occurance
