Hey...
I'd definitely be interested. My main reason for interest is that I really want to learn NL cash from a consistent winner. I'm starting to tire of SnG's and wanting to transition into a form of poker that's more viable live.
Age: 27
Experience in poker:
Summer '03-Summer '05, LHE. Started off reading a few books, was a breakeven player. Discovered 2+2 and lurked, discovered online tools like PT, became a 1.5 bb/100 player at the 3/6 level. Went pro (semi-pro, actually, because I do earn some money from music) in May '05.
Summer '05-Present, SnG's. Devoured this forum, became active posting, worked my way from 11's up to 60's...that's my most comfortable level, though I have been profitable up through the 100 level (109, 114, etc.). Bought house and pimp engagement ring with profits, as well as supporting a fairly expensive overall lifestyle with my fiancee. Poker's treated me well, I'm comfortable, but looking to learn other things.
I can 8-table with no problems, I have 12-tabled from time to time and it seems not that hard.
Current bankroll: 5 G's.
What I expect: to get a quality start on a new kind of game that I've been interested in (but ultimately, haven't yet) gotten into.

Is 5g's 50 thousand or 500 hundred thousand? How did you manage to buy a house and other stuff if your bankroll 5g which is 5 thousand right? I thought you would have a bigger bankroll.

First of all, who is this and what do you care about my bankroll for?
Second of all, my bankroll has been as large as about 12k for higher-buyin SnG's. But 60 is where I've been most comfortable (plus it's easy to more massively multitable there), and I only feel I need about 5k to handle the 60's. I cashout the profits, so it's no longer a part of my bankroll. Getting it yet?
I was able to buy a house because I have a house payment. All I was saying is that poker has been good enough to me for me to be able to afford a house payment on a pretty sick place (2800 Sq. feet in a desirable suburb of Dallas).
Oh, and Pasterbator...my coach for SnG's was Degen if that has any impact on your decision.
