Ahhh I really don't know what to do.

Ideally the game type I want to be playing is the $7 6max turbo SnG's, but would realistically need at least 70+ BI's for those. I don't want to play SnG's under that limit, and am nowhere near bankrolled. When I deposited that ~$120 I decided to test my luck and play them anywhere but obviously ran like shit and that left me with about ~$40. In the mean time, that leaves cash. The problem is I really don't enjoy playing ring games lately, especially under NL25, which means I play terribly. So seems like im caught between a rock and a hard place.

I don't currently have money to deposit myself. A lot of things have come up recently which have been draining my funds and that alongside trying to save money for travelling after university next year, depositing money just isn't plausible.

Staking's the only other option, but there are complications with that too. Numero uno being that im not a proven winner at the $7's, only got a sample of around ~300 games at around 15% ROI which obviously means very little. I'm fairly sure they're beatable for a decent ROI but I imagine my early thoughts on the game doesn't count for much Also the fact that I can't guarantee how often I can play with working full time and a few other commitments, although I imagine i'd be able to get a session or two a day in at least if I really wanted too. There is still that air of uncertainty there though that isn't ideal..

Meh

I don't have any money to deposit so that's not even an option anyway

Stupidest bet ive ever made, was only a few days ago wasnt it? Ah well, doesn't have to be settled until end of September anyway, hopefully will be loaded by then!

U don`t have to pay a RO, Just blame it on Karma, he got what he deserves (=no payment)

Considering seeking a stake for the $7 6max Turbo's on Stars. Only have a small sample (which means I may struggle to get a stake), but im so certain they're beatable for a good ROI. Another problem is im not sure how many I get in per day/week/etc which some stakers may find a problem, a flexible staker would be ideal.

[edited by fruktpuff]. Not 100% sure im gonna apply, probably decide at the weekend or early next week, but if anyone reading this is interested feel free to give me a shout on here or on skype.

good luck with the staking danny. Pokerstrategy gave me another cool 50 ball to recharge the batteries and hopefully get a free status upgrade here, which was actually tilting me a bit to not be able to afford paying for silver status myself, and knowing i could just have it for free if i bowed down to less good poker site. anyways i'll be on nl2 and $1 sngs at everest. hopefully you can support me along the way in this blog and in mine!!

good luck with the staking. i know you will have a better shot then most at getting one, although im not sure what 300 games is good for in this world anyways lol. but hopefully someone concedes.

Hi danny,

I took the liberty of slightly editing your post above, while not actually a staking application, because of the whole sentence structure.

Please keep details and specifics (especially if you're asking people who may be interested to contact you in the same sentence) to actual posts on the staking forums.

Regards,
Richard

Oh hi there! So what's new?

Well, online poker is pretty much non-existant nowadays - for now. Recently in the process of moving house, signed for it and got the keys yesterday so busy busy busy. Things are gonna be much more convenient now, gonna be living 5 mins walk from uni and work whereas at the moment im a 10 minute walk + 20 minutes train away :f_confused:

Another plus side is that ill be living a 5 minute drive/taxi away from Gala casino where I used to play live a lot last year. Definitely gonna start playing there again end of next month probably, money to be made! I do also plan on getting back into online, properly as well. When my student loan comes in im thinking about dedicating a fair wedge to live/online, mainly live but with my FTP money coming back hopefully ill be grinding both as well as being in my last year of education and working 25 hours+ a week.

Interesting 10 months ahead!
