Title: Looking For a Backer! Post by: GlasgowBandit on August 05, 2008, 07:35:52 PM Good evening fellow blondes, I am looking for a backer to the tune of tune of a $109 for the $6k guaranteed 08 tourney on Stars. I won the even last week and placed well in a number of other PLO, O8 and HORSE tournaments I have been in the money in 5/29 MTT's since I opened my stars account on the 20th of July. I have a ROI of 151% although :)
I am offering 50/50 plus stake back. I am open to suggestions regarding the number of backers, obviously I would prefer just one so I don't have more people hating me in the event that I fuck up and bust early (I don't anticipate this happening ;) ) Although I have enjoyed recent success on Stars and happy with my tournament play I am a cash game degenerate and have blown over $2k in an attempt to spin up my dosh playing $3/6 PLO! Anyone interested in staking me feel free to pm me if you don't want to be tarred with staking a donk or feel fre to ridicule on here! :) Title: Re: Looking For a Backer!

Title: Re: Looking For a Backer! Post by: GlasgowBandit on August 06, 2008, 09:02:00 PM Not the best of starts, Got a good part of my stack in with an open ended straight fd missed every out I had and some donkey calling all the way with a gut shot pinged it on the river obviously. Still just shy of 2 k average 4k.
Title: Re: Looking For a Backer! Post by: GlasgowBandit on August 06, 2008, 09:07:20 PM sorry guys busted .... :( Just bad play After a bit of pre flop raising I thought KK23 was a hand to get it in with only to be up against A2J7 which turned an A!

Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on August 06, 2008, 10:45:34 PM Its a fair point tho. These threads are here for people to be offered backing or ask to be backed. The backer knows (or should know) that no returns are guarenteed and that the person will not return anything more often than not! I don't think its fair to take the piss everytime someone doesn't get a return, otherwise this will defeat the point of the board as nobody will bother asking.

But seriously I would never have asked for a stake if I didn't think i could deliver a return. I got unlucky in one particular pot when I had loads of outs and I played one hand really bad. And one day when I am as flush as Flushy I will repay my backers and put them into something. Title: Re: Looking For a Backer!
