Default Re: Convince me to stake you (#2)

The first year of my pro poker player carreer was pretty uneventful, I was concentrating mostly on SNGs at the time to grind out small profits every day while in school... In january I decided to take a year off and concentrate on poker.

In January I attended the Pokerstars Carribean Adventure and got a top50 finish that netted me ~17k - on my way home I also chopped the 320$ Wendesday 150k gtd on stars heads up for ~32k. I was on top of the world at the time.

I started playing more and more I'm a perfectionist and have about 50 different DBs... this is a pic of me running good (And yes it's Party but I guess it's a good thing that I'm canadian and have access to semi-easy money)



Most of this was just chassing losses that I had at 25/50... after awhile I found myself playing out my roll without even trying to establish myself at 5-10 - at 25k I decided to stop the madness and withdrew 20k to buy a piece of real estate convincing myself I could OWN 1-2 real quick and get back up. Well I couldn't stay motivated focussed enough and within days I was playing 2/4 3/6 underrolled - a few weeks later the unevitable happened.

I've grinded 200$ to 3k on Party since then (this month) but it's hard for me to motivate myself to play NL100 when I've played 25/50 before..

Asside from the money, I think the biggest benifit out of all this oppurtunity is to work with you - obviously having access to someone who knows so much about the game is a huge asset for anyone's game.

Reasons why I think you should pick me?

- I'm incredibly motivated, I live breathe poker.
- I think that not playing with my own money will force me to learn proper money management and I honestly think I have the skill to crush any game on party properly rolled


I hope you give me a chance,

Thanks
