Hey I am interested in a staking deal
History
I started playing online poker about 3 years ago. I was one of those players who would deposit $10 and try to grind the double or nothings but of course kept losing. A year or two after, I started making money with some SNGs and especially 180 mans. With the 45 and 180 mans, I was able to peak my BR at $3,000. Then I needed a new laptop and such so I withdrew $2,300 leaving me with almost 300 BIs for the $2.50 180 mans. That didn't go so well. Long story short, I was down to $4, received a miracle $10 gift from jaggedlink and almost a month later (with a couple lockdowns and one 3rd place finish in $1.10+R 6max tourney) is now $490 and ready to shoot for NL25 (there's more about this in my current blog).
Current game and situation
There are a couple reasons why I want the stake. I would like it to eliminate variance; I would like it because I simply cannot maintain good BRM with the tourneys that cost more than $5 (and already 100BIs is aggressive); and the most important reason is because I would like to keep my BR for cash games if you know what I mean. If I were to break even in NL25 for a couple days and I enter the micro millions tourneys, I will have to move down to NL10 again because of BRM (I only want to move down if I am less skilled or being run over, not any other reason).
Previous MTT results and experience
As you can see, I'm not a player who specializes in MTTs. Although I am starting to become one. I have been watching videos lately to increase my edge over opponents. This isn't a big sample but you might have to take my word that I know that I am better than the micro MTT fields especially because I'm winning player in cash games (which has helped me a lot in MTTs from when I wasn't a winning cash game player).
Also, some of those big drops are because I won satellites to those tourneys and lost them. Sharkscope still counts them though.
Previous stakes recommendations
Unfortunately this would be my first one so I don't have any people who would recommend me.
Details
TOTAL $ that it will cost me to enter the tournaments I want to enter (I have calculated the rebuys as 5 times their original BI --> original BI+rebuy at first hand+double rebuy if necessary+add on)
