i have posted on live staking thread for advice due to never asking for staking before, with the good advice i recieved on the thread and a few phone calls i've opted for a small request very much in the backers favour more to prove my self.

cut and paste from other thread:

ok after some thought, the idea i have come up with is more to prove i have ability and more for future requests.

the plan:
to play 30 $11 mtt's on pokerstars total cost $330 within a week
my cut is zero until i at least double the backers stake($660)
after this i will take 40% of any further profit.    eg total return $2000 10% stake would return $142.40    on $1000 return 10% stake would return $86.40
                                                                      
$2000 maybe a little presumtious but making double the stake isn't, therefore i would play 30 mtt's for free, which i am happy to do to prove myself

thoughts and suggestions please

cheers neil

sold out in 12 minutes, is that a record Smiley

When are you starting Neil?

Also what time will you be playing? Just nice to know if there's any railing potential.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.
