    Default Looking for backer, 5 tourny trial

    Hey everyone,

    Trying to find a backer willing to make a business investment. I have been playing for a year now an have had some decent finishes both live and online yielding $200-700 because of the low stake by ins. I really think I could make it rain if givin the opportunity to play with stakes where people actually care if they win or lose. I will sign contract and my progress could be tracked. Ideally I would like 5 Sunday millions entree and pending my results we could carry on or no. I would take entry into any 5 medium or high stake MTT . Ideally the split would be 60% to the backer and 40% to me because my goal is more Experienxe based ( and obviously a little money based lol). If any one is interested my sn is Ambedexteras on pokerstars and in can be contactEd at Danny-McCoy@live.com.
    Thanks

    Establish yourself first. Noone is going to take the word of a man whose first post is......................... well.. that. I dont see it happening lol, if you're that good why dont you have your own cash.. go win with your money so you can keep ALL the earnings.

    The best people in the world have been backed firstly. Secondly because I came in 7th of 5000 which you could say is a good finish. For 2 dollars entree it gave me 102 dollars in the Sunday million it would have been 60k. Like I said any 5 tournaments as a trial. I'm not asking for 50k even 100 dollar investment would be fine. I don't establish myself with the amount of posts I have lol

    If you have the skills, as you claim... why not just turn $0.00 into 10K

    Chris Fergusson did it without a backer.
    Started with $2 won in a free roll and then played cash games progressing limits as BR grew.

    I've turned 20 - 800 cashed out 600 and went dry . Yes I win here and there but like i said it's harder to grind low stakes and play right when people
    Don't mind losing what they've put it. Plz don't post unless your interested need not worry about my skills unless your investing in them. And how bout Scott fischman? He had backers and he was one of the best.

    good luck to you in your quest to "Make it Rain".

    In the future, when asking someone to back you in the largest online poker tournaments you may want to be a bit more "professional" in your wording

    Without proof of ability to play you have no chance of getting a stake.

    Look my name up ive had good places. That's my proof any possible investors
    Can play me before agreeing I'd be more then happy to play 1v1. In last 120 days I've made 300 profit and with avg buy in of about 4$ that's not bad. Just looking for an opportunity.

    Maybe about 50.00 but i don't really go by that but also in a backer you usually get a pretty good teacher top why are you a possible candidate?
