    I would like to stake 2 Micro players for tonights 8 pm EST $27.5 40 k Grntd on pokerstars- I will define Micro as players who play $5 MTT's and lower primarily for the purpose of this exercise. If you don't fit the bill you do not qualify (NOt really a big present to those who can play a trny at this stake anyway.)

    You only have to give me half(on your honor) if you make the FT. (keep your winning otherwise)

    I will be looking up stats in the poker db is verify game habits.

    Let me know WHY I should choose YOU.

    I will decide by 7:50 and ship the money. You MUST play in the trny and cannot just keep the money.

    I will need your SN on stars name to check the DB and be sure you are micro

    Edit- I will also give an addtional $20 for your BR to the one who lasts longer but they must also outlast ME in the trny.

    can I play? Icount52 on pokerstars.\

    Why?

    I've had an awful Christmas, one in which would take too long to go into right now. I am in a great state of mind though, and I think that makes for good poker.

    Im feeling good, I'm looking good, im oozing confidence right now, and would love to participate in your lab experiment!

    Im always looking for opps to get better, this may be one.

    I play alot of 1-5 tourneys, however i do sometimes step up in level, hope that doesnt hurt my chance. I also pretty much dried out my BR from stepping up too early. lesson learned

    Im bored, alone tonight, and have hours of freetime to concentrate, and have some fun.

    Have not posted much but have been on P'5's for a while, daily troller.

    Anyway, I'm due a decent score and you could profit from that.

    I'm honest (nobody to vouch for me, just my word) and would be happy to split any score from this tourney.

    You'll see I play a lot at the $5 level and have a nice ROI..... at this level.....

    Thought I would just toss in my name in and see what Santa decided......

    Wow I think this would be awsome for me! Ok, were to start... I have been running pretty bad to say the least the last month or so for the most part. Ya it sucks...

    So I was down to like my last $50 after being up to $600 or so grinding sng's... starting from $0 (won second out of 6000 people in a stud round 2 freeroll)
    Check it out here bottom of the page http://www.psblog.net/weekly-round-2/2008/10/ my screen name is timfbmx

    Anyways, I was in the $11 5k GAUR. a few days ago, and I picked up QQ with 60 or so people left. I had 35K in chips roughly and the blinds were like 1k/2k. It goes raise -- re-raise HUGE all in -- call, .... then it's my turn! I decided to fold thinking the last guy had to have a huge hand and turns out he had JJ. I actually made a post on here about this very hand... everyone but a few people called me an idiot for folding lol
    :(

    ...Flop was Qxx !!!!!%%$%$# ....chip leader had 80k at the time and if I would have called, that pot would of put me at about 180k in chips!!!! nfsdknfknfabnjfdsfds

    I am still crushed and it was 2 weeks ago. Worse fold of my life. First place was 2K bucks and wow it sucked. I basically could of folded to the final table easy and would of had a really good chance of taking it home. So ya... I ended up getting my money in good 1010 vs 99 of course doesn't hold gg me!

    Ya I know it's just another poker/badbeat story but, it basically was like bubbling the wsop ME for me lol. Basically I would love for this opportunity and think I could do well... I'm dead broke playing freerolls :(

    blah blah /rant

    My screen name is timfbmx on pokerstars you can check my stats on OPR and sharkscope. Keep in mind I JUST hit negative r.o.i on OPR for the first time due to running bad :( But I'm still playing good .... even though im broke. Took 2nd in a .10
    360max turbo lol is was fun

    Thanks for doing this I think it's an awsome thing to do on xmas day :) GL to you and whoever you pick!

    I really wish I could have a chance to play, as I think my play of late has improved greatly in MTTs. I haven't played in a $5 MTT in over a year I don't think, but have finally grinded a roll that I might get to play them soon. I reloaded $25 in the Sept reload bonus, and have got it to $235, and it is now $199, due to me playing cashgames as I needed to get to 319 FPP from 69 total since I am off work for a few weeks. I now have 171 FPP with less then 1 month to get the remainder, but if I can stop the bleeding in cash games, and put in the volume with the next week and a half off, I should clear my $14 bonus. Thanks for staking some micro grinders, but unfortunatly I cannot play as Christmas Dinner on the West Coast. My PS screen name is marcball75 on stars, but if you went with first comment #1 with the P5 minimum I would not get any chance, as I only discovered this site a few days ago, after playing online for 2 years.

    Thanks again for helping out a micro grinder have a chance at a bigger tournament, it is very generous of you.

    And the Sunday hundred grand I have played in 3 times I sat in for $1.10 45 plr SNG. Just wish I could have had more time, but maybe if you do this in the future?

    tim sounds compelling but I cant verify your stats because for some reason my pokerdb is not working right and my opr stats only work 5 times time so I am using P5's and yours are not in there. you are IN only if noone surfaces soon who i can see qualifies :)

    Probably too late now, but I'll throw my name in the hat. PS screenname Philly Bones. I"m not going to BS you and claim any guaranteed win or anything like that, however if you are just looking to stake someone that plays within his bankroll to minimize chances of going broke then you can consider me. The only +$5 tourneys I"ve ever played are special P5 events. If that disqualifies me so be it. Good luck to you and whomever you pick.
