Hi all,

I managed to buy a seat cheaply for the Irish Open Main Event which takes place in Dublin across the bank holiday weekend.


Buy in:

3200+300 (euros)

Proposal:

I will be selling 40% of my action for 40% equity. I.e. at 1.0 If you buy a 10% share you would get 10% of any winnings in the tournament. I believe I could sell at more than 1.0 but because I got the seat real cheap I'm happy to sell at cost. I will be paying my own flight, accomodation and expenses.

Record:

Within the last year I've probably played 15 or so live tournaments with a buy in of £100-£1000 (Most within the £300 range) as previously I was predominantly a cash player. I chopped the £200 Freezeout at the Vic for £4300, came 5th in the £200 at the Big Slick club for £1500, 8th in the £150 at DTD for £800 as well as a few mincashes and more recently I chopped the DTD £300 deepstack heads up for £7250.

Total outlay was around £5k or just shy with just over a £12k return on these though obviously the sample size is small.

I'm GreekStein on Full Tilt.

Other Potential Considerations for stakers:

One thing that may be seen as a potential downside for stakers is that this will be the biggest event I've played to date after the £1k Monte Carlo event. I don't think this will affect me negatively at all. I'm quite used to playing for large amounts in cash games etc and never play scared etc. I think it will make me focus and try harder if anything but it's something for stakers to note.

I feel I'm playing well in tournaments this last year, pretty much always ammassing a stack.


Monies:

5%= E175  = £157.50 or $236
10% = £315 etc....

Payments:

Payments ideally by bank but I will accept FTP xfer too.

Any questions? If not, flame away.

Cos

How did you get a cheap seat just outta interest?

Will you let me be lame and take 2.5%? I'm a nit for this stuff recently, but seeing as it's you...

P.S. Who's sharkscope graph is that?

I'll go halves with you on 5% mate. I'm gonna be a nit too.

Im gona carry on the nit trend and take nothing.

But i am going to wish you the very best of luck, i hope you win a life changing amount of money Greeky.









Then pump all the winnings back into the gambling community and eventually do it all back.

0% here too please.

And on what grounds do you believe you could sell at more than 1.0 please?

Yeah 2.5% is fine. Booked thanks Matt and James.

Well firstly it's a very satellite heavy field which means there should be significant value. I expect to have an edge on many of the players though obviously I'm not claiming to be Jason Mercier.

In addition, I've spoken to several people who have previously played the event and they deem it to be pretty soft. This would be in line with the last time I played in Ireland - it was like playing poker in 2003 again.

Finally, I wasn't suggesting I could sell at a huge mark up, but bearing in mind people don't usually sell at 1.0 regardless of their edge, given the added costs and expenses I'll incur I would have thought 1.1 or 1.2 was easily justifiable. I'm happy not to do that.

Cheers.

joke only works from people who can afford a piece :)

ill take 2.5% if you will accept

GL with it

Booked, cheers guy.

i also love the faked graph - genius

Erm, yes it does.

Matches up exactly with the stats on the pic below...

Is the Irish Open Main Event a Sit n Go?

 ;popcorn; ;popcorn;

Nah, the skill level is lower.

Oh go on then, I'll join the rest of the nits and take 2.5% too.

GL us.

FYP

;)

Oh man!! What have I done.......

Just changed the sharkscope for all games. It's almost a perfect mirror image of the sng graph.

GG stakage.......

If you ever want staking for sngs btw this graph should secure your funding.

Cos this is priceless mate.

Sharkscope yourself for scheduled tournaments instead of sngs and post that up.

The sympathy vote might get you a bit more interest.

made my day this fred

rofl @ the mtt graph

I got this graph when I looked for his sharkscope graph:

(http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc43/kinboshi/cos-ss.png)

post of the week IMO

Although the bit sticking out at 75 games played should be at 90 games IMO

lololol...

Fwiw Cos's sharkscope means very little because of the sample size involved, it's just com because of his original brag...

 ;D

This thread is pretty legendary.

I will say in Greekyboys defence that sharkscope does sometimes default to just sit and gos when you open it up (I think if you are not a subscriber/logged in) so he might not have known that it also covers your MTT action too and thus, wasnt trying to cover up his MTT losses on that particular site.

Hahaha this! I was just going looking at sit n gos...

Sigh @ this whole thread, my nose and pretty much my entire life. LOL

Mtt's...meh.

thx Ralph...booked.

I love you Cos.....

wanna be careful mate, looks like your goldfish is gonna jump out of that bowl

Hi all,

Sorry just landed last night and was straight in to work today, marvellous.

I've given the Euros to my old man as I think he's seeing my uncle at the end of the week who will hopefully take them off us without us having to pay commission etc. If anyone is in a rush or wants Euros or indeed wants to pick the cash up anywhere in London let me know.

Will be doing a trip report as soon as I catch my breath.

Had 9095 euros at home and just sold them for 8k. Losing £20> Losing £200 in commission.

Everyone will be getting paiiid tomorrow hopefully.

Sort me out at the Vic on Saturday mate.

Ta.

oh you are going on Saturday nice one, myself and the Rodent will be down on Friday night. Do you think Cos will manage to appear for this one?

I live in Londonsville so even I can make it.

Will defo be there Eccles x x
