Title: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: M POWER on June 13, 2005, 04:00:44 PM This is a thought I've had and some of my chums at work are up for it.
I am looking at selling 1% shares of my winnings in the Main Event at 100 a time.The reason for this is to give me some spending money in Vegas. Am I being to greedy or what do you think the market rate is. Just looking for a bit of feedback good or bad. Or has anyone else got a better idea? Title: Re: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: Junior Senior on June 13, 2005, 04:08:26 PM i think 100 may be a bit steep.
50 would be more like it - ideally you could look to sell 30% of yourself for 3500. Nice spending money - you are still playing for 3/4 of yourself and at 50 a go you may get more interest - well done by the way John, see you tonight.

I dont know if you know this but, Betfair are giving you an Extra $2000 for spending money over there as part of the package you won last night The full package is this: $10,000 seat at the WSOP All flight booked and paid for you 9 nights accomodation in the Rio hotel all booked and paid for AND an ADDITIONAL $2000 just solely for spending money!!!

I played through the William Hill skin so I think it is a different deal.

I understood the package is the same across all Crypto skins Title: Re: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: Ruru on June 13, 2005, 05:12:29 PM Thanks for the info Dave I played through the William Hill skin so I think it is a different deal. I understood the package is the same across all Crypto skins The same basic package on Crypto skins except that Betfair is adding a free return flight on top of the standard package so it's better value. They're a generous lot those Betfair boys aren't they? ;D Title: Re: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: Teacake on June 13, 2005, 05:13:04 PM I was watching on Hills & I'm sure Daves right.

It is much better to sell to someone you know and if you get a nice draw it is much nicer to give the dough to someobody you know/like.
Title: Re: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: Junior Senior on June 13, 2005, 05:16:21 PM you definitel get spend money and flight and accommodation john
Title: Re: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: Ruru on June 13, 2005, 05:17:45 PM the free flight only comes through Betfair, if you played through Will Hill's you'll have to pay for your own flight from the $2000
Title: Re: Selling Myself in Vegas Post by: ifm on June 13, 2005, 05:34:15 PM Absolutely correct ruru, Will hill give you the $2000 as "travel expenses" while Betunfair give it you as spending money AND pay your travel expenses..........still crooks though.
