Get shipping boys

Ok bankroll finished at $2804.80 this is the shareholder breakdown :

30% Me
15% Bongo
5% Silo Graham
5% MC
10% gatso
10% Eck
15% jakally
10% Wardonkey

That means there is $402.40 more to return to shareholders plus their original stake.

Breakdown of who is owed what:

Bongo $360.36
Silo Graham $120.12
MC $120.12
gatso $240.24
Eck $240.24
jakally $360.36
Wardonkey $240.24

Total $1681.68

On top of those i still owe from previous withdrawal:

TheChipPrince $462.33
RobertHM $245.70

Overall Total $2389.71

I tried to pay RobertHM on Stars a couple of months back and it rejected as he had an age verification issue on his account which he needed to resolve i know he was busy with work but has not come back to me since, i think TheChipPrince rightly argues he should get paid first but by the same logic so should Robert.
Can other stakers let me know if they are happy to wait until those 2 are paid before i proportionally pay everyone else?
Hopefully i ship something decent and can pay it all in one go but if not that's the plan.

do you have a job to pay people back the money you stole if you dont ship something or go on a spin up?

[ ] i sure do

I think the stakers are aware of that. I've played full time for over 5 years now, but in the last 3 months i have started to look at alternatives. There's very little work available in my previous sector of work, accounting&finance, and theres even less demand for someone that hasn't done it for 5 years and can't easily get a reference. At the moment i don't have the money or the inclination to retrain.

Please guys post or PM me your account name for transfer on Stars, if Stars is a problem i may be able to send elsewhere although it could take a bit longer. Once i've paid out these percentages i'll work out a plan going forward.

Just to help you along, I'm due $462.33, $262.33 proft at the point I dropped out, plus $200 initial stake...

Correct just had to wade back through PM's and the thread to find amounts for you and Robert now modified post.

[the fact i've already returned more than the stake to most of the stakers]

i kind of agree with bobba here, double standards

Just caught up with this. This is ridiculous, how is it not a grim? He spent staker's money on something he wasn't meant to?

I know Fergus was a farce, but this seems the same.

Well intention to pay back and the fact i've already returned more than the stake to most of the stakers has already been mentioned, however i don't plan to respond to any more comments from non stakers so this thread doesn't decend any further.

Just me who's received nothing at all then? 

Yes afraid so.

Need to swap around $200 i have on stars for tilt $ does anyone have tilt? Anything from $50 upwards is useful.

Epic or just bad fail?

If a cost effective deal can't be done for the TV, then don't televise it. I am sure it's quite capable of being run successfully without TV involved, certainly without charging players for it

I am also sure there are companies out there who would live stream it onto the web for a lot less than the organisers are being charged here

Priorities pretty much upside down here IMO

I would guess their thinking is it used to sell out completely every year there was TV coverage and last year there was none it couldn't even muster 64 runners. You can see why their logic would be that it must be televised to attract players, that and they'll make a nice healthy profit if they fill it and pass on the TV costs.

Yeah makes no sense flatting the flop then semi bluffing an absolute blank on the turn. As played hero shove the river might just be the only bet he can't call.

Isn't it the game that Feldman got cheated out of for 1/4m?

Oh the irony.

Sorry Flsuhy.  Normally I agree with you and in fact, give you more credit than most.  I've no gains or losses on this one and therefore no business saying anything...but ye all know me well enough - not one to keep me mouth shut. 

I stake every chance I get on blonde.  From day one this just didn't sit well.  I'd much rather average Joe says 'I'm not doing too bad so give us a chance' over a guy who is supposedly rolling it in and claims to be winning who says 'I'd like stakers.'

2 + 2 = 4 in my world.

Fair few wrong assumptions in there i stated on page 1 i was far from rolling it in or rolling in it whichever you meant, and as for winning well i have returned profit of around $5200 to stakers already and will be over $6000 when i get it cleared up. Agree with first half of your statement.

I'm not gonna flame man, I think the plan to end it now and work out how much you owe is best right now though. I'm sure you'll pay us back when you can.

If that's the general consensus over the weekend i'll do the figures on Monday and post it up and then this just turns into a payback thread as they call them on other staking forums.

I like Dave.

He is however a degenerate gambler, i don't mean that in the way we all say it jokingly, he is a proper animal when it comes to money and gambling. That all being said though i expect everyone to get paid back at some time in the future, everyone knows what he is like but a grimmer he is not, he intends to pay back of that i am sure.

Yours Sincerely,

Someone who is owed from a Penly stake.

I'm sure you'll confirm that a sizeable proportion of that debt was paid off when funds allowed some time ago just to reassure stakers here they will get paid at some point in time.
Please ship WCOOP main event so i can grim the rest with clear conscience kthx.

Ok i'm sorry guys i can confirm the rumours i have some time ago got staking money mixed in with other poker/life money and there is at the moment no stake fund. I've never kept the majority of the stake on the blonde site as most have paid elsewhere or required payment elsewhere. As stated above im not a grimmer in the true sense of the word in that everyone will get paid as funds allow. I guess best thing to do is end the stake and work out what everyone is owed and pay everyone back at the same rate. I'll take feedback on that though.
Barring any instant miracles it could take a fair while as my only action at the moment is with backers where i have a reasonable size makeup to payoff first.
Once again sorry guys. Flame away.
