    Hey! Thanks for taking a look at this thread amongst all the others.

    What is μStaking?

    μStaking is a new staking operation, specialising in microstakes cash games. Initially I am looking for 3 players, at levels 2NL through 25NL. I currently stake one player, who has moved from 10NL to 25NL on stars and is doing great. Anyone who is accepted will be expected to join in with a weekly training session, where we will lok at HH's, discuss strategy, do live sweats and video reviews. This will take place at 7pm UK time every Monday - if you can't make this time most weeks this probably isn't the stable for you. Standard deals will be a 50/50 profit split with MU, including all RB/bonuses, although there is room for negotiation both ways in exceptional circumstances.

    Who are you?

    My name’s Donald, I’m 22 and I live in the UK. I played poker part time while at Uni and since graduating last June I’ve been playing full time. Here are my tracked results so far this year:





    These results are mainly from SH and FR games, at 50NL and 100NL on stars (d7o1d1s0). I am also up over 3k euros on a site not compatible with HEM. This obviously is a pretty small sample, and while I don't consider myself qualified to coach, I do believe that you will benefit from studying with me and your teammates. I believe this offers some added value to the staking proposition for both of us.

    What are you looking for?

    If you'd like to apply, please send me a PM with the following info (and post in the thread in accordance with forum rules):

    - Your name, age and current life situation (e.g. work, family commitments etc.)
    - Screen name on all site's you've played on and all the forums you're active on.
    - Skype info
    - What game/level/site you are applying for.
    - Your expected volume in one week/month.
    - References/vouchers etc., if any.
    - Playing experience/results/HEM or PT3 screenshots.

    When reviewing applications, I will be extremely critical and extremely cautious. My number one concern will be your trustworthiness/reputation. If you have had poor results so far but are willing to work hard on your game and put in good volume, I may well consider staking you if you have proven yourself to be trustworthy, or have someone respected who can vouch for you. On the other hand, even if you have seemingly great results I will be looking for some proof that my money is safe if you are a total unknown. Players who are willing to move down and build up slowly will have a far better chance of getting accepted.

    If I like the look of your application, I will arrange a time to conduct an informal interview with you on skype, so that we can both get to know each other better. Once you have been accepted, I will take copies of all your real-life info (driving license, address etc.) and ask that you agree to a contract, which will clearly state how the agreement will work and what will be expected of both parties. Once the paperwork is done, we can get busy making some money!

    Thanks again for reading this thread, I look forward to receiving your application.

    I have been playing online since the october of 2011, my big problem has been BR management. I do okay but move to higher limits before I should that has caused quite some harm, I am looking for a mentor who can sort things out. I do great on the live circuit! Pm follows with my experiences and details!
