How do you find a backer to play poker professionally?
My husband is a fantastic poker player! We live in Vegas. My husband has a Masters of Accounting and a CPA. He is wanting to play poker full time. How do we find a backer to bank roll him?

- Talk to other regular poker players in the card rooms. You can usually find other players who will work equity deals with you if they respect your play.
- Go to 2+2 forums - they have a poker staking section over there. But I suggest your husband to play small stakes and to create some type of record for himself. Usually 20-30k poker hands online is enough. Do you guys know what rakeback is? Many novice players make same mistake by playing without a rakeback. This way they throw away thousands of dollars each month. This is a good site to find out what the rakeback is and there are a lot of good rakeback deals>> http://www.rakebackinn.com
- Go to a good casino. Ask a good players to give you a back up. But then you have to ensure him that you are a good poker player. If you satisfied him and he is ready to invest on you then you are the winner.
- Has your husband considered playing online? You can get staked online through ChipMeUp and many other poker sites. If you make a name for yourself then you have a decent chance to get staked at the really high stakes.
