Title: 20% share (total) for sale in Waterford €500 event
Post by: M3boy on November 10, 2007, 07:06:03 PM
Ralph gave me this idea, so what the hell.

The event is a deepstack, long level tourney of €500 euro.

1st prize is estimated at €40,000 +

I am willing to sell a total of 20% of myself at a cost of €10 per 1%.

Any takers?

Tom, I know what you are saying, but this figure was suggested on another post (taking into consideration expenses).

Maybe it is too high, but no harm in suggesting it.

would I not be better off placing a 200 euro bet on you to win @ 150/1?

I might offer 1% chunks at 6 Euros a pop, and I won't limp with J10 with 9x the bb......


Seriously though, good luck Paul. You are a brave fella!

Does anyone else playing in Waterford consider themselves to have an expected ROI of 100%?

given the nature of poker players, I'd say 90% of the field assumes they have at least a 100% ROI

I've always thought I'd like to conduct an experiment where every entrant into a poker tournament is asked if they consider themselves to be better or worse than the average player in the field and if they could quantify that into a figure. They're not all going to cancel out are they?

Given my ticket only cost me €80, I'm still not sure I have an expected 100% ROI in this.

they wont come close to cancelling out, in theory the sum of the EV should equal the prize pool, but id bet that most tournaments, the poll of the players assumed EV would be at least double the prize pool, if not more.

I do not quite understand what you are saying here.

If someone buys into a tournament and does not think they have an expected ROI of at least 100%, then why enter?

If you think your ROI is less than this, what you are saying is that you have no confidence in your own ability to make the money. Surely this is a defeatest attitude?

As conceited as it may be, EVERY tournament I buy into I am confident in my own ability to win it - or else I wouldnt buy in!

I am also sure that most people buying in have the same attitude - are you saying this is wrong?

Why? I don't understand why a presumably successful accountant and winning sponsored/affiliated/whatever poker player needs £140 so much? I'm not trying to be rude and I don't think I am, I think it's a fair question as you have started this thread but obv you don't have to answer if you don't want to. I mean if you have just had your boiler blow up and your car pack up and a shit load of expenses and you can't get a refund on the travel and hotel expenses if you withdrew from the comp then fair enough I guess.

No you are not being rude.

I do not need the £140. That was not the point of the thread. I started this due to Ralphs comments on the "staking players" thread. I just thought it would be an interesting topic. Weather there are any takers or not does not affect me in any way shape or form.

Confident in my own ability to win - does not mean I will win. There is alot of luck in poker you know.

Money is not the be all and end all. If it was, I am sure Pab would not have put money into a prize pool not so long ago or by agreeing to play very low stakes cash games on blonde and thereby passing up the oppotunity to make money himself.

Blonde is a community, and I think madasahatstand has got the point - it is meant as a bit of fun/ineterst for people not playing the event, and yes a chance to make some money this is true.

I am not the best when it comes to explaining myself, but hopefully you will see what I am trying to say.

The community bit is fine, but if it is a bit of fun, why put some juice on top?
If you were offering a %age at the buy in rate then I would've been interested.

I know its only a few £ difference, but it's not the money, it's the principle.

Yeah, I wasn't clear - that's what happens when you post at 1am when you come in from the pub. :)

I should have said an expected ROI of 200% - ie your total winnings will be double your total buy-ins (as you're saying that every €10 of entry fee someone buys is actually worth €20).

Of course poker players tend to think that they have more of an edge over the field than they may actually do, but backers should be able to take a more objective view and say 'Hang on, is this price really justifiable'.

Agreed, the deal doesnt have a community feel to it to me anyway.

Plus im not a gambler so wont just throw money at any offer.

I hope you do make your "shareholders" a good return and good luck out there, but i just dont think its viable. Im out.

It seems like M3's point has been missed here, if you read the staked players thread he explains that he was goig to try this for an experiment, based on travel, expenses & buy in. would anyone stake him?

if someones roi is 100% is it worth playing the comp? (500 buyin + 500 expenses). on average your only going to comeback with a return of 1000 euros everytime. just going on the opr website most profitable players roi is between 0-100% therefore is travelling to play comps worthwhile?

Travelling to tournys is probably not worthwhile from a ROI aspect.
The thing with tournys is obviously the lure of a big win, also the added advantage of guaranteed live side games.

If this is all about the community aspect like you said M3, then you should be selling at face value to get a few blondes interested.

If this is from a "try and cut losses" view, then sell for as much as you want.

Oh yes!! I went on a date recently where we were at a loss as to what to talk about - he doesn't play poker - I haven't had a normal conversation in years. Unless its poker, poo, or if I'm talking to a woman I can slag off men, other than that   I'm really stuck.

I need to get a hobby that doesn't involve poker but as the financial future of the G casino in Luton is partly reliant on me I feel responsible for the dealers jobs and have to keep going there.  ::)

I have only given a share up once. It cost me £2400 and i did not mind paying it. Promised myself never again though because I proved to myself that there was no need. Happy to play just for me. Only ever leads to argument, often between so called mates. I don't think M3Boy was necessarily looking for an edge he was just curious to see what would happen. This is after all a forum.



Title: Re: 20% share (total) for sale in Waterford €500 event
Post by: robyong on November 11, 2007, 09:01:23 PM
Commenting on past experience, I have never ever asked a player to buy a % of him in a tournament, but I have bought many %'s when asked, and always as a favour to the player, its like a lending someone some money who you like but instead of him paying you back, you swop that for a chance of winning more.

99.999999999999999% of the time players sell pieces of themselves as they do not want/cannot stump up the full-buy in themselves and really want to play the event. In M3boy's case, the amount he is selling is relatively small, so in this case, it looks like a genuine experiment.

In terms of backing players, since they are asking me (and I would prefer not to do it), I expect no "+ VE juice", ie. for a £1k event, I buy 20% for £200. In terms of some of the comments in here, I would say that live tournament poker is a -VE business in the long term, same as the national lottery, I just don't buy the fact that the top pro players have such a huge edge over the field V a solid amatuer. However, i would say cash games are the opposite in the long term, and backing top cash players (who lose their winnings on casino/sportsbook) would be a much better way to make a profit.

Cheers Rob

Spot on Rob.

I never expected to sell any %age tbh, but as it turns out, it looks like I have sold the full 20%

So Ralph, the answer to your question on the staking thread is YES.

Only to a degree Red. Outside of a poker table I would not wish ill on anyone. At the poker table I want everyone to crash and burn until I am out. When I played rugby on the pitch I was a nasty dirty bugger. Off the pitch never. The twin sides of Gemini. I

I am sorry Paul.......you say you are running an experiment. Well you proved it when you managed to fill the 20%. So now I think you could return the money safe in the knowledge that you could do this. You will of course have to gain agreement from all of your business partners to be able to do this. Then you could join me and others, quite a lot of others, to do some good by donating a small proportion of your winnings to a charity.

Or you can continue to walk down the dark side of the force in which case you know how I feel...........

Hmm, Red, I did not find it a joking post - and I have a very dry sense of humour. I am flying and someone who says "I hope you crash and burn" holds no humour for me.

Phil, I take your point about the "experiment" but I do not see the need to return the money. If however, they want it returned then of course I would gladly do that.

Also on the point of Charity - if I want to give to charity then I will. I will not feel the need to post about it though.

There are many many people that give to charity who remain annon. It really grates me the people who want to publicly announce they give to charity - why? Does it mean you have given more than if you stayed silent? No. The main reason people say they are giving to charity is to say "look at me" "look at what I am doing" - I am not saying this is your reason or the reason of anyone else who has also posted about giving to charity, but it is most peoples reason.

I suppose an argument could be that you raise awareness and convince others to also give to charity.

I am flying on the same flight so I think it is safe to assume that I mean crash and burn purely in a poker sense. How easily ones words can be twisted.

Secondly I have no problem in shouting that I am giving a proportion of my winnings to charity. I do it specifically for it to come across as "look at what I am doing" and exactly for the reason you answered yourself though you are probably right in that these people would have given quietly anyway.

I have the right to portray myself in a way I am comfortable with. I have done so.

and I will be the same affable person I always am hopefully..............whilst obviously trying to make him crash and burn, a figure of speech I use when trying to describe the act of knocking somebody out of a tournament.

If I should be knocked out before him I will obviously be rooting for him and any other blonde still in. Nobody should be in any doubt about that.

VGL to all blondes taking part in this event.

Paul has decided to sell 20% of himself for whatever reason. The plain facts are that , There wont be many players in the comp which have a better shout than paul in a deep-stack comp. He has masses of experience and imo only needs a few breaks which havent been forthcoming recently, to notch up a big score.

I was thinking about buying up some %'sfor interest/as an investment but decided not too as i will cheer paul, and anyone else on the same with no financial interest.

Its pretty ballsy offering stakes and whilt doing so opens up avenue's for you to be mocked but i see nothing wrong with this type of business proposal. As they say 'ya pays ya money, ya takes ya chance'. 

Hope all blondes have a good trip and don't forget that poker isnt the be all and end all.  GL all.

Just had a "nice" email from Mr Garnham.

He is not happy that people are bumping old threads and talking about him and wants it to stop.


Message passed on.



I feel I should explain my post earlier on this thread, seeing as Laxie has got the wrong end of the stick.

This link will explain why i chose to highlight that quote ...

http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=2019.msg32796#msg32796


Mr Garnham made several requests to post that on blonde, even though he was banned and had abused all of blonde on his blog and to anyone that would listen. He used emotional blackmail and personal insults in his attempts to get us to change our minds.


Nice to know you still read the forum Paul... and I promise not to comment on any bumped threads or posts of yours in the future.

Good luck with the Trillion deal

if someones roi is 100% is it worth playing the comp? (500 buyin + 500 expenses). on average your only going to comeback with a return of 1000 euros everytime. just going on the opr website most profitable players roi is between 0-100% therefore is travelling to play comps worthwhile?
Travelling to tournys is probably not worthwhile from a ROI aspect.
The thing with tournys is obviously the lure of a big win, also the added advantage of guaranteed live side games.
Not to mention the chance of a Weekend Jolly  :cheers: with other people whose main topic of conversation is Poker. (Does anyone else get the feeling they are boring people to death all the time talking about poker )

Oh yes!! I went on a date recently where we were at a loss as to what to talk about - he doesn't play poker - I haven't had a normal conversation in years. Unless its poker, poo, or if I'm talking to a woman I can slag off men, other than that   I'm really stuck.

I need to get a hobby that doesn't involve poker but as the financial future of the G casino in Luton is partly reliant on me I feel responsible for the dealers jobs and have to keep going there.  ::)

I think your hero and my guru, Mr Bolton once swapped 200% of himself in a tournament at the Vic.

Did the guy you are talking about hold a Britsih passport by any chance?

Just for the sake of clarity as the OP states that I gave him the idea for this.

What I said was that if you were travelling to Ireland and your exes. were probably going to double the tourney fee from €500 to €1000 who on earth would want to buy a stake in you @ 200%.

You mentioned your "guru" Tony Bolton earlier Keith.

I remember going to watch QPR v Gooners circa 1981 with my old mucker Tony and it was on your horrendous plastic pitch, the ball would bounce so high of the "turf" I swear it must have spent more time in the air than on the ground.

We lost 2-1.

I honestly didn't know Paul was banned.

I wasn't taking the piss in any way.

The limited interaction I've had with Paul suggests he is a decent fella, even if asking to be staked at 200% was a bit cheeky.

just love the way people enjoy raking the past up by bumping old threads to ridicule especially when the person in question is banned and  cannot defend or reply themselves.

how sad and big of you lol

I honestly didn't know Paul was banned.

I wasn't taking the piss in any way.

The limited interaction I've had with Paul suggests he is a decent fella, even if asking to be staked at 200% was a bit cheeky.

keith i know you genuinely didnt know.

m3boy bashing is so old hat and like most bashing on here always done as far away as possible. upon face to face meetings people are all sweetness and light just makes me laugh that all  rotflmfao

Well as someone who's had to be all sweetness and light when placed in a real predicament & being a person who likes Charmaine, I'm delighted to know how you judged my attempts to keep things OK at a bash.

If I knew I'd be made out to be snidey I'd have still acted the same - because I wouldn't have upset Charmaine. But at least I know how sad some poeple would judge me.


of course you would rod, i wouldn't expect anything different from a gentleman like yourself.

we all love charmaine shes lovely, isnt she life banned as well?

In all seriousness - you have a fucking go at the mods every time you get a chance. YES Charmaine's banned & when I spoke to her she understood why.

If I felt so strong as you seem to I'd leave - M3's got a forum you could join. You are a good member of the board for a wee while, then, as usual, you start the shit stirring. Well I'll say it - if you don't like it you know where the door is.  I've argued your case repeatedly on the mods board, but to be honest I've forgotten why now.



I blame Strachan for Rod's rant.  Obviously drove the man to drink today.

Grow up Gary

lol billy lend him your ladders ffs!

rod im not stirring as always im just telling it how it is. i thought the bumpage and comments thereafter were out of order so i said so.
i only asked regards charmaine as you were saying how wonderful she was so i was just wondering if her ban was for life or not?



Asking questions you know the answer to?

I thought more of you Turny, but hey fine, yes her ban's for life.

Any chance of you manning up and answering as to why you stir the shite and try to make the mods look bad?


if you think that sometimes questioning what they say and not believing everything im told by a mod to be gospel then yes im a stirer.happy now?

Right - Fuck It. I'm going to be brutally honest.

I'm sick to the back teeth of the backbiters, the people who want to run the board, but don't actually want to do anything.

I've had enough of the people who take the coward's out of the debate and say "A Mod shouldn't say that".

I've fought long and hard for Turny & the Bandit not to be banned when they've been out of order, as I feel they add something to the board. But after tonight, why would I argue again?

I've had PM's accusing me of picking on Rangers fans... and then had a Celtic supporting mate tell me I've changed.

Well if I'm still a Mod after this, the guy that tries to stand up for the opinionated and forthright is no more, because there's not one that doesn't dish shit at those who stand by them,

No, how about you do us all a favour and realise how much the slagging we get for trying our best for the board hurts? Fuck it Turny, I've argued your case left right and centre but you always manage to fling it in my face. EVERY DECISION IS QUESTIONED and then, later brought up again. You made your snidey shots about M3, I made my point & you used it to have a go about Charmaine. I consider people on here my friends - but a friend wouldn't do that.

ok have reread this thread since the bumpage and in the cold light of day and after sleeping soundly.

there are one or two things still bothering me.

why the fuck did rod paradise feel the need to personally lay into me on this thread? i have reread and up until rods first rant/attack on me i had not mentioned him or pointed at him regards anything!

if that was any other member of the forum of they would have been banned that im sure of, so why when its a mod who makes an unprovoked flaming or insulting post on here is it allowed to stand and we just have to accept it or in rods words leave?

then after the dust settles and most involved agree to cool off overnight does then another mod in roberthm then feel the need to post for the first time on the thread like hes some kind of red adair arriving late as his fire engine broke down that i have history and generally goading me to continue on the thread.

sorry to those bored with it for reraking but i agreed to not post anymore last night but that doesnt mean im happy with taking unneccessary shit from others.

I took the comment "m3boy bashing is so old hat and like most bashing on here always done as far away as possible. upon face to face meetings people are all sweetness and light just makes me laugh that all" badly. We all had an awkward situation to deal with at the last bash, and insinuations that we were 2-faced or cowardly are as far as I'm concerned unneccessary, incorrect & out of order.

Oh come on, stop acting the martyr, people aren't banned over a flare up.

And as I've said earlier, the argument of 'a Mod shouldn't say that' is a crap one. We're members of the forum as well & have the same rights and responsabilities.

then after the dust settles and most involved agree to cool off overnight does then another mod in roberthm then feel the need to post for the first time on the thread like hes some kind of red adair arriving late as his fire engine broke down that i have history and generally goading me to continue on the thread.
Not really accurate though is it? He posted during the argument.

I also note that YOU are allowed to read that you are being goaded into a post but I should have been banned for the same according to you.   
sorry to those bored with it for reraking but i agreed to not post anymore last night but that doesnt mean im happy with taking unneccessary shit from others.


No neither am I, which is why the constant questioning of the mods & 'innocent questions' aimed at raking things up gets right on my wick.

if that was any other member of the forum of they would have been banned that im sure of, so why when its a mod who makes an unprovoked flaming or insulting post on here is it allowed to stand and we just have to accept it or in rods words leave?[/quote]
Oh come on, stop acting the martyr, people aren't banned over a flare up.


believe me i been banned for less lol

And as I've said earlier, the argument of 'a Mod shouldn't say that' is a crap one. We're members of the forum as well & have the same rights and responsabilities.

I disagree, mods are supposed to calm situations down and try to prevent arguments, this is not the same as regular users of the forum who have the right to just not get involved.

So if a mod feels strongly about something they're supposed to not say anything?

Extra responsabilities, yes. Gagged and not allowed to take part as a normal member, no.

Yes, they have extra responsibilities. They also have opinions.  (Just like shareholders really)

Gagged to the extent that you can't talk about the details of your private discussions in the mod room and who took what position on these issues.

I always thought the unwritten rule was that this included publically asserting your own personal postion in those discussions, unless you're man of the people Tikay, who would frequently post, "well I think A guys and gals, but we'll go with the mods desicion of B"  :D

Basically, taking the huff and telling Bandit/Turny that you're no longer their man in the mod house, we can't really count that as taking part in discussions as a normal member.

Taking the huff is totally cool in and off itself though.  ;popcorn;

Well I wouldn't put it as taking the huff. Running out of patience possibly.

Fair point I probably shouldn't have mentioned it, but you know yourself how galling it is when people jump to wrong conclusions on how decisions are met & who is their latest 'little Hitler' etc.

I'll admit, the modding job certainly did get annoying/infuriating at times.

If only you guys had some sort of place you could vent your frustrations among each other without the rest of the board seeing. ;)

I'm liking this thread at the moment - a sneaky peek into the mod's room for us mere mortals.

It's like we've snuck out of bed and are sitting on the stairs listening to mum and dad having a row.

itb, I think Rod got cross coz he read into your post an accusation of two-facedness. Whether you intended it that way or not.

Rod probably took exception to this, coz he is not a disingenous man by nature, but his role as a moderator requires him to sometimes behave in a way that could be interpretated thusly, and this is perhaps a source of frustration, a sore point. (reductive I know)

I don't think you're right in saying a normal member would get banned for saying the things he did. (I'm discovering at the moment that getting banned is actually pretty tough, I'm having to work pretty hard at it)

yes but obv my post regards accusations of two facedness wouldnt be aimed at him because he hadnt even comment prior to my post so other than a guilty conscious i have no idea why he would think i was pointing the finger at him.

maybe its a little harder to get banned nowdays tank, maybe the mods are being a little more lenient now and letting discussions between people go ahead that can only be a good thing on an open forum

Not sure if you were referring to my post, but I can assure you...I am not at all shy about saying what I feel - face to face.  Doesn't mean an all out war has to happen in the process.  It is possible to speak your mind and be polite at the same time.  Paul and I have it down to a fine art when we do cross paths. 

Most people on blonde know the history and in my mind, it was opening old wounds on both sides when the post was bumped.  I was definitely annoyed and probably should have just left it, so apologies for that.  As for being two-faced?  Not so much.
