Hopefully the staking friends arent really close friends with you, that could blow up in your face.

I don't think so, they all realize the risks and they all know my play better than anyone else. I think they realize what they are getting themselves into and all of them can handle the swings and more (they all play MSNL).

In your own estimation, what makes you so much better than pretty much anyone else at these stakes in order to achieve these winrates? Is it that you hand read better, or you have better mental stability, or you lag it up and steal more pots, or something else?

Just curious because these are some amazing winrates that people who are considered the "toughest" at these stakes aren't achieving.

I'd like to know the answer to that before considering buying a share(s).

OMG $5k. You have no idea what running bad is like. I lost 15k over 150k hands at 1/2 - 2/4 and I'll post my EVgraph if you want me to. Just continue grinding your normal stakes.

this seems stupid. Why don't you just grind 5/10? thats still crazy good money.

I'd say it is a combination of a lot of the things you mention. I feel I hand read very well, but so do many other players, after the fact. It's really easy to, for example, be a coach and see hands while not playing in the moment and come up with the right way to play it given time. It's a whole different step for someone else to be able to do this real time and I feel I do a really good job of thinking things through completely as they happen before making a play.

I'm also very resistant to tilting and playing bad as a result of it. I'm very disciplined with shutting down my tables if I begin to sense even the slightest bit of tilt affecting my play.

I also play a slight twist on a very common style here at 2+2. I don't really want to get into detail about it but I do win more than my fair share of pots to be sure.

Look at it this way. I can continue to pay $5/10 and $10/20 now and move up to $25/50 in a few months on my own. Or I can play $5/10, $10/20, and $25/50 (with 75% of my winnings here) now and still playing $25/50 in a few month on my own. Both get to the same place but one gets me more money now.

My investors can either put their money in an investment earning 10% a year at best or they can invest in something only a bit riskier for a decent shot at an over 100% ROI in a only a bit over a month.
