Looking for a backer that I can move up the MTTs with.

Hey all, my name is Dan and I am looking for a micro stakes backer that could back me up to the top of the merge MTTS. I feel I have alot of talent but have yet to make any serious strides. I am a college student who just recently finished y associates degree. If some1 is interested in taking a shot with me send me an email here. Obv you dont know me very well as I am knew here, but I can assure you I am very honest and willing to work very hard. I talked to cookies last night and he was helpfull, but I really need some1 who is willing to invest in the long haul with me. I know this will sound offputting to some, but I am willing to coach/discuss poker very in depth with some1 here if they are willing to invest in me. please no spam or haters. Just an honest inquiry being thrown out there.

Yes he does if he sees that you are worth it. If you are a serious grinder you want to work with cookies.

yeah I am definately interested in hearing what cookies can offer even if it is starting @ the very bottom

Does anybody off hand know of any people that he backs... ie their SN's?

I mean if you could give me more information that would go a long way in getting anywhere here...

How long have you been playing MTT's online? What kind of Volume?

Can you provide any stats?

Why would you be a positive ev investment for someone?

What kind of micro stakes? Where is all you volume? (greater than $5, mid level ect)

Have you been backed before or have any references?

How long are you wanting to be backed ect?

Thanks for your response MP. I have never been backed before. Secondly I would like to get a backer to start out @ tournaments less than $5. I played on BCP under the SN westatebowl and success in the MTTs but took a big shot @ a real juicy stud game and got coolered hardcore. ( I had trip Ks all rolled up and a guy pured some sick cards) I did win the $500 first depositor freeroll for a $109 dollar ticket... and also won a PLO freeroll that runs @ 7 pm est. Realistically I am looking to get backed even if I have to start @ the very bottom to garner their trust. In the $109 tournamnt that I played I made it down to about 60th place before villian shoved a 18 bb eff stack into me when I was the bb, and I snap called AQ suited and he had AA... yawn nh gg.. etc. I feel as though I have a solid conceptual grasp of the game but I am definately very intrensically motivated to get way better and make a real strong statement. Thank you once again for youre inquiry and I hope that makes my objectives a little clearer.

good luck man....hope u`ll get some stakes here ....:D

Thanks Gozilla. I appriciate you taking a look at my posting. I am playing in the HORSE freeroll at 1pm est. It is a very very soft tourney and if I can catch a few cards early I should be able to at least gring out a top 24. wish me luck. Also if anyone out there is a backer or knows of any good micro stakes backers let me know.

gl to you and your goals. just pm cookies and see what he has to say

So this thread kinda fizzled out, so I thaught I would post back again to potentially drum some interest back up. I have played the freerolls here and won one. I really want a serious backing deal for the micros. I employ a hivh variance style of play, but it is solid. I have taken some shots with the money I have earned in these freerolls but have yet to bink a real scors yet. If you want a real horse that has real skills then I am youre man I know that sounds cocky, but self belief and the ability to make the right play even if it might not work is a big part of the game. I am looking for some one to give me a shot and thats all. If you wanna set up some sort of trial run let me know eithef here in the post, or by PMing me. TY for reading my post.

A week ago they were telling you to talk to Cookie. He has a post up offering backing. Have you talked to him yet?

Guess I am not looking for a $1 stake.
