SCOOP STAKING REQUEST

I am looking for staking into 7 of the SCOOP events. Now I appreciate that staking for isolated events can be considered as bad for the staker - so I have tried to add a little flavour to my request in the hope it will generate interest from backers.

I would love to pick up one backer for the lot, but I appreciate that might not be likely. Therefore I am prepared to sell individual events (but not parts thereof).

WHO AM I?

Guy Johnson - outragous76 (stars) binkmebaby or outragous1976 on i poker

Stars OPR:   http://www.officialpokerrankings.com/pokerstars/outragous76/poker/results/D7DF75D9C31648E08FE6ABDF6A773079.html?t=2

I am a farily low volume player but am comfortable playing at the stakes requested

I have  2 Sunday Major final tables under my belt (stars 2nd chance  (8th) and I poker 250k (2nd), and also a GUKPT 1k final table. I also ran super deep in the 2008 WCOOP and but for the sickest beat ever would have been top 10 going into day 2. I guess what I am saying is that on my day I can do it

Part of my desire to play the SCOOP is that I feel like I am playing my A game at the minute with a few final tables and near misses since January.

THE OFFER

Given that I am asking a lot of the backer I am prepared to offer what I believe are favourable terms.

I am prepared to play 65%/35% after stake back in backers favour.

In order to add to this – any cash which is under double the buy in for the event – I will give 100% back to the backer. At a point where the cash is better than 2x the buy in the original rules apply to the whole amount.

I want to leave the thread open to see if 1 person will take the lot. So if you are prepared to back me for 1 event – please post interest, but I will reserve acceptance incase someone wants it all (reason that 1 backer who is prepared to take the lot would obv be minimising variance (on a 7 game sample ?!?!?!?!?!?)


THE EVENTS

Event 2 - 2nd May - $215 (NLHE) - 2 days

Event 6 – 4th May – 109 – 5 card draw (44th out of 1200 last year)

Event 12 6th May - ? TBA (NLHE)

Event 20 - 9th May - $215 - 2 days (NLHE)

Event 30 - 13 May - 109 PLO Hi Lo

Event 31 - 14 May - $615 (215 1r 1a) (NLHE)

Event 37 - 16 May $215 - (NLHE)


Thanks for listening. I know I am asking a lot – but Ive got a feeling

so if my maths is right its around $1478

if i had the money i would snap your hand off at that  if you don't get the one backer you want i might have ??% for $147 let me know  GL with this i'm sure someone will snap your hands off

hey Guy..

not 100% on what you are doing - are you selling the events as a package? can't quite get my head around it - probably being retarded as per usual.

imo the best way to offer an attractive package would be to say:
total buy in = $x. Then sell percentages of $x and offer 65% of total cashes in return

or is this what you were already doing?

hope u are well matey

Yeah, I'd agree it's not 100% clear.

After stake back in this sort of thing usually means after the entire stake for all 7 comps is returned, ie your $1500 or w/ever.
But the >2 x bonus thing you're talking about makes it sound like you want it to work as 7 individual stakes.

Hey guy,

Why such variance on typse of games played?

Also as above - what happens if you get to end of all 7 and total cashes are $1700 but came in the first event?  What would the split be?

I may take the lot if answers to above are good.

if you're selling individually i'd be keen to know if you play mixed games etc much as i'd be interested in buying the 5 card draw and the hi lo

At a dinner I will sort this tomorrow.
