Also, when inyaface flips coins, he is a 70/30 favorite. I found this out the hard way. I'm sure he can pass on this skill...

Hi, My name is Pete, ive played poker for a bit and am kinda interested

Age 19
-Experience at all forms of poker:
I’ve been playing for maybe 2 year online, built up my roll from jetset freerolls and have played around 3k SNGs from 2.75 to 33s and 27t’s. Up to 8 tabling 27s, but rite now in 8 tabling 16s after the party switch.
Last month I tried 10k hands of 100NL with very limited success
I’ve played some MTTs but nothing exciting happened, probably made a little in them.
-Most tables you can see yourself playing
I have played up to 8, I haven’t played more than 4 cash tables at once, but I don’t see it being much of a problem. I don’t know if could play much more than 8 because I haven’t tried, but I would be willing to.

-Current bankroll
Around 2k

- What you expect to get out of this arrangement:
Learn a lot about poker; actually learn how to play cash games well, and hopefully get up to some good mid stakes NL in the future.

I know pretty much all of the Toronto guys so they can all vouch for me (eagles, Pudge, BigT, You)

26/m/OC, [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. Oh and I'm a world champ, just not of cash!

I've played as a hobby for 2.5 years? Something like that. Just before the legislation debacle I was really hitting a groove with playing STTs frequently and playing strongly.

I didn't play for like 3 months afterwards and realized that STTs were boring and v difficult, lol. So I want to switch to cash but the whole journey seems daunting. I think having a structured group/coach situation could be v useful. Success breeds confidence and I haven't tasted much success at cash yet and feel dumb while playing, lol.

Oh, and I can prolly get posters who you're close friends with to write references for me if you want, [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img].

AND if you choose me I will let you read my myspace blog in which you will obviously be mentioned profusely and in glowing pseudo-English prose!

Well, I'm not really well known around here as I mostly lurk/really just started grinding SnG's after taking most of last term off due to rugby and other commitments here at school. But, I'm 18 and I now have most of the time in the world to play poker (4-6 hours a day at least most days) and am more than willing to put in the hardwork. I played some cash for a while as a marginal winner at 100nl at 2.5ptbb/100 over 40k hands. At the moment I really only have the bankroll to comfortably play 100nl, but would be more than willing to move up to 200nl and 400nl as soon as I am able. Not sure if I meet your criteria but I would definitely greatly appreciate a shot at it and am willing to work as hard as need be. Thanks.

I might be interested in this.

1) Is this for sngs or cash?
2) How many hands/games are you expecting people in this group to play per week?
