    I may be willing to do it or go in on it with someone, but, usually the initial poster does the initial leg work.

    Okay, that's a fair point, my post was perhaps a little sparse. Let me try again. Actually perhaps I will try a slightly different approach, and suggest a PLO cash game stake. Let me go into some background. First off, who am I? I am Zachary Young. Some of you might have played with me live in Ontario over the years. I am 31 years old. Basically my whole adult life I have been a card player. I started playing home games with my friends, just like 5-10 bucks, when I was 18-19. Then it was online poker, and casinos, and then I got into card counting, and then I got big into PLO, and I played a lot of online poker as well. Over the years I have experienced a lot of swings and played a lot of pots.

    PLO :

    Pot Limit Omaha is a great game, especially for online poker since it takes forever to deal out live (15 hands per hour vs 45 hands per hour). It attracts a lot of gambling degenerates and generally you see much better action and bigger pots at plo as well as much looser games.

    So what I propose is a micro PLO stake. Now the great thing about this investment is, we're not talking about a lot of money here and fairly low ROR. For example, to play PLO 5 with some degree of safety we could start with say 25 buy ins or 125 USD with a plan to drop down to PLO 2 at say $90 USD. So because of the plan to move down in levels your risk of losing the investment is pretty small assuming you do in fact have a positive win rate in these games.

    here are my PLO cash results for this year only :

    last year was good too.

    I practice a very disciplined game selection methodology, basically only playing the very best tables. Lots of breaks. A lot of 2-3 handed play as well. PLO cash is my strength. And what I've done on previous stakes, and what I would like to do on this stake is when you win enough so that you have x buy ins for the next level (30 or w/e depending on what level of risk/reward you prefer) you move up and the idea is that the investment snowballs. Straight 50/50 split obviously.

    I was considering staking you and I have a few questions.

    If I decide to ship you $100 on stars tonight, at what point do we split 50/50? After you ship me back $100?

    In the last 2 years you have made ~10k on stars and now you want a micro stake. What happened to your br?
  • "If I decide to ship you $100 on stars tonight, at what point do we split 50/50? After you ship me back $100?"

    Yes, we split profits 50/50. Your initial investment is first returned to you. You can of course quit the stake, in part or in full (cash out some) at any time. I also offer full make in the event that I bust should you wish to continue staking me or if you choose to stake me in the future.


    "In the last 2 years you have made ~10k on stars and now you want a micro stake. What happened to your br?"

    I've had some losses at MTTs, and part of these profits went to backers, and then there are living expenses.

    If you do send $100 I will play .02/.05 for a 20 buy in bankroll. This is a pretty safe investment so long as in the event I lose 10 buy ins and go to $50 then I move down to .01/.02. This plan should reduce ROR some. I will post updates at least 2-3 times a week but probably more like 2-3x a day.
  • Send me your stars name I'll send 100 tonight

    Please confirm when received.

    In addition can you provide updates as to how your doing. Once a week is plenty.
    I play plo on stars and if you want a line check or have questions let me know.

    Good luck.
  • Alright I have sent you a PM with my Stars name. I will start a dedicated thread for updates and so that people can follow the progress of this stake. I look forward to investing quite a bit of time into this project over the next week and hopefully all goes well. I will only play PLO cash @ .02/.05. Before I advance to .05/.10 I will consult with you, probably not until at least $250 USD so quite some time from now anyway it should be. I like to stagger my buyins as I advance. 20 buy ins at PLO, 25 at PLO10, 30 at PLO 25 to protect the more valuable roll. Variance in PLO can be a hell of a thing because there are so many spots where you just have to say wtf an gamble with relatively low equity but you're getting 2.5:1 or 3:1 so you have no choice. But it's a great game and there is a lot of money to be made even at relatively low stakes plo online and it will be good to get back in action again. Let's do this.
  • Best of luck
  • thanks. still haven't started yet but I will probably get cracking in approximately 12 hours or so a little after i wake up tomorrow.
  • Can you adjust your setting so I can look you up.
    Thanks
  • Best of luck!
  • sure no problem payperview, hide from search is off and I will leave it off for the duration of our stake.
