As an Avid poker player myself, its not uncommon for poker players to ask for backing. Many big pros do it. I know a few that have totally gone bust 4 times before they made it really big. There is variance, Instead of a chart that shows money, you should show how many hands you have played and the results, I know there is software that keeps track of all this..

you will be more successful if you post as much as you can, wining 3 or 4k isnt saying much, I want to see how many hands you've played and the time frame.. 100k hands will give you a pretty good idea where you are as a poker player..

Good luck..

Lol, if you are really that good on poker then you never need loan for Bankroll.
And even your account not worth to giving 0.05BTC loan and you are asking 2 BTC loan.

I dont know OP and i havent researched any further but purely commenting on this post it is possible that a loan can maximize your ROI as a poker player vs playing tiny stakes.  (if you are a genuine long term winner in a particular game/stake)
With backing:
#1 you can play a higher stake
#2 you can reduce tilt since you share the risk and therefore play better and make more

While this is true, asking to keep 80% when you have NO RISK AT ALL is a bit absurd. It's actually slightly worse than the businesses here that are putting $0 into it and asking for investors to fund it 100% while they are only willing to share 15-20% of the profit.

This is a very HIGH RISK LOW REWARD proposition and is something any serious investor will stay away from.

You don't know much about poker if your telling this.
20% profit on someone making 1$ per game in the long term is absolute nuts. The question is not about the money-risk, its all about long term. If your a winning player, it is like freerolling 0.2cents per game the guys is playing..
Also, the big difference vs the brand new project that your talking about is that I already have results. That means the investor know how much ill be doing in the long term. It's not like I played those game 5 years ago, I played them mostly this summer.

Just so you know, someone offered me 15/85 to play some $15 and I refused it. This rate is pretty standard for a winning player (with a big sample of hands)

Anyway, I found a deal with someone on the forum,
Ill post some update after the deal done,
Cya in 3 months guys!

If your only reason not to loan is my account on BTCtalk, too bad for you.
Also, I posted the reason why I need a loan/staking deal.

Let me do one thing, I will go to 2+2 forum and ask loan of 2 BTC with showing
how trusted I am and how many deals I did here, will you give me loan.

If you provide me something take make sens, I would look at it. Obviously it's not a 1 day decision.
Also, for the 20% cut, I don't need the entire 2Btc bankroll. The only things i'm asking is the backer need to be there at anytime so he can reload me if I bust the small roll. I can play with 10 buy in if the backer want that.

Hi guys,

I'm well know in the poker industry and I was looking for a solid backer who can provide me a good bankroll to play some Heads-up. I'm a poker player since 3 years and iv'e been crushing the game since. I had to cashout a lot of my poker earning to pay for my school (studying in finance)

Some of you might know the forum 2+2. I'm http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/members/212595/
I am also a french poker moderator on this website : http://forum.pokercollectif.com/#discussions-generales-poker

You can look at my transactions on 2+2 (over 10k $ in trade, i'm always sending second)

This is my Heads-up graph :
My Username on PS is : Kovalchuk19

What i'm looking for : Short-term deal (2BTC worth of Bankroll) for one month. You take the risk, I can quit if i'm down after one month. Ill be giving you 20% of my profit.
I'm playing 30$ Turbo heads-up with a 5% long-term ROI over a big sample of hands.

If you don't want to handle the risk, I can loan you 2 BTC for 3 months @5% return after the 3 months. Also, if i'm up 1k+, i'm sending the money back before timeframe.

PM if you want to talk on Skype. I can also provide you more informations about my reputation and my abilities.

Pleasure,
Fred
