Title: Ukipt London auction!
Post by: $muszlesz$ on February 14, 2013, 12:23:52 AM
Lookin to sell percentages for this using a auction prob gonna sell 50-60 percent. I am staked by a single backer for comps to max of 500 and will talk to him about this tmw so I'm gonna say now that I'm reserving him 10 per cent minimum at the minute so 50 per cent available for now.
Never used auction before but just took it from other pals ideas as looks best way to sell on here.

I'm not sure an auction is good for this particular stake.

But I'll have a go with 5% @ 1.03

I am sure someone else will explain it better than me, so I will leave it to them.

I would probably be of the opinion that auctions are for bigger/multi events, etc.

Offer still stands though, will monitor thread.

So if anyone that has  more experience with auctions could tell me what they think ? Maybe add few more comps so it becomes a package or just sell this one without using auction ? Cheers

Post by: scotty77 on February 18, 2013, 06:38:32 PM
When you are asking for other peoples money, my advice would be drop the attitude.  It may not be your intention, and is easy to do online, but the way you write sometimes comes across as a bit aggro.  Even when people may post negative comments, you still need to act professional.

No offence intended here, but auctions are probably more suited to players who are gonna likely be in high demand for action/have a long track record on blonde.  Alex/Brammer/Keys/Camel could easily use this format and get tonnes of bids because of their reputation in the community.

My advice would have been to go for a standard thread for this kind of stake at a mark up that you felt right.  Tonnes of people on here love a sweat, but they don't like having to wait to find out if they have the big in place.  They like to secure the piece and ship the money and forget about it.

Also I remember talking to you about your deal in person and you said it wasn't that great.  A 75/25 with no make up is pretty incred IMO and should be treated as such.

Thanks for your comments Ryan just same old ppl trolling on here is kinda annoying rather than them taking the piss out of me they could just explain there thoughts just like u have and I appreciate u taking time to write this......but if ppl have bad words to say about me or my poker ability maybe they should say things straight up rather than take ridiculous digs.  I have no attitude as u know me in person whereas many of these ppl don't .


Title: Re: Ukipt London auction!
Post by: scotty77 on February 18, 2013, 06:51:57 PM
The old 10pc at 0.1 joke is something that I've seen on all kinds of staking threads on blonde tbh so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

I know that online its very easy to type stuff quite innocently that comes across wrong, done it dozens of times myself.  Now whenever I post something, especially when its something I don't agree with/am wound up by, I always take a couple of minutes before I hit submit just to re-read everything a couple of times.  It really helps you think clearer.

Good luck and prob see you at the Vic during GUKPT week?

ok kewl



ridic attitude....

VIOLENTLY SHIT THREAD.

I mean fuck me it's so awful I have kept checking back FOR THE COMEDY.



Who are you, why do you want staking, why are you worth staking especially at a markup that people are going to be bidding on...

WHAT IS AN AUCTION, you seem to have no clue. How is the auction working, when does it end, how will people pay. Who can vouch for you.

You have an absolutely ridic backing deal yet don't know it's ridic, so obv are prob massive expectation hence everyones clammering to bid up the price.


You should have got some of your 'pals' to set up the thread for you this is utterly awful. I'm utterly surprised at any >1.0 bids, I am assuming those people know you in real life and have dealt with you before so haven't got all the obvious questions like who the fk is this punter.

You are asking for £2100+reg from the good people of blonde. Its a lot of dough and needs an op to reflect the seriousness of the proposal.

Fuck my backer who is a mug I want more than 25%

You are asking for more money than most of your lifetime cashes.

You need to at least use a bit of Vaseline to ensure that we enjoy the experience too

It is more than £2100, he wanted a decent mark up here, that is why he auctioned it, so would have been been £2800 with a 'regular' mark-up.

Some people have been a bit harsh, but should have handled better, imo.

Auction should have never been proposed and should have sold at no mark up, imo.

I am also unsure how it works, because is it RE?

Post by: TightEnd on February 18, 2013, 07:17:15 PM
Jason

My twopenneth (and I know you)

An auction is not necessarily the best way to sell on blonde as your OP says. It certainly needs a heftier proposal than yours is, with figures nailed down and an awareness way beyond yours is of what the process involves and how much transparency is needed

All that info is readily available on blonde staking proposals with a bit of research, and then ask the questions privately before having to conduct this educational process in public, while you are asking people for staking.







If everyone could debate reasonably, advise sensibly and not flame, call people out etc that would be great, ty. That includes you Mr Clarke!

Post by: mondatoo on February 18, 2013, 07:18:28 PM
Think it pisses a few ppl off that on multiple occassions you've put up staking threads were you've seemed to put very little effort into your op.

For instance this thread, your op is missing so much std info, you said you don't rly know how auctions work, why you would then create one I've no idea but as you still have surely you could've took the time to check and copy Keys' template that he put up in great detail, I'm pretty certain you didn't even look at it. Yes auctions are a little complicated but you've done this in the past with much easier staking templates that are a lot easier to copy.

To be honest with the amount of posts and backing I've already had here I didn't think I'd need to write out the same info as I did in previous posts cos  thought most of u knew who I was etc.....never mind anyway.

lucky you provided all the links then isn't it.


You can have 40% of yourself IF YOU PAY 40%. as it is you don't seem to realise the awesomeness of your current deal.


your proposal is atrocious.


you have no clue what you're doing, auctions are created to get the MAXIMUM markup, why do an auction otherwise.


you posted you want more than 25%, you posted for an auction, at no point do you say you'll be putting anything up let alone 40%.

you have posted more information about this stake in random one liners in response to criticism than you have done in any of your previous staking posts.


This isn't a staking proposal, it's like you've condensed it down to fit on a post it note. Reread then delete the thread, then start another thread, forget auctions, post a full proposal and see what happens.

Look anyone can get backed on here. Aaro, John black, Pleno and me. A bigger bunch of cockends you will struggle to find.

Just sort out your proposal and you will sell out.

My attitude is only towards smashedagain as he is bein very rude IMO.....have no other problems with most of the other comments ppl have posted......yes my deal is good I get 25 per cent with no mark up but if u read that's in comps upto 500 like I said in op so I wanted to sell and buy 40 per cent myself like I said also.....

sell your backer £500 of this on your deal (like normal). that equates to 65% of the comp and gives you a 16.25% freeroll. then just pay for the rest yourself giving you 51.25% total for £270. 25/75 no make up is a great deal and you will not sell here or anywhere at a better rate than that.

So someone bids 50% at  0.75. Will you honour that if you honour 1.0

must do, there are no specifics in the opening post.

This is the thing Jason (Clarke) - what you've done here is set up an auction with no reserve price, so the current bids should stand.

You can't just decide you don't like the bids and call everything off.

We aren't. This is the point, there are tonnes of TandCs related to an auction, and normally the first few posts state them and make everything as clear as possible, if you had this brought to you and were asked to arb on whether the bids stood, the bids themselves would even if the thread itself has no leg to stand on!

I assume the first bid of less than 1.0 was made purely to point out what a crap OP it was.

If you list a product on ebay and it doesn't attract the interest/bids you were hoping for you can end the auction at any time and withdraw the item from sale. You are never committed to sell a product if you no longer wish to in any walk of life. I had to do it once when I realised the photos of my item were too far away for people to judge how great the item actually was.

Also whatever happened to the simple 'if you don't like don't buy' mantra that a lot of you guys have trotted out before?

Mate, you should think about being a nun being able to show all that restraint.

Another thing I'm not a fan of is people asking for stakes but never staking themselves. It's like jeans on a fat lass, you've got gotta give a little.

I agree with most of what you say, but the thing is I think this was caused by carelessness and not thinking.

Just cut the geezer a break, I think he'll have learned a lesson from this and his next staking will be a lot more professional.

He's had a tougher ride than some grimmers, and I'm 1000/1 I get grimmed on this stake.

I can't imagine what any of those would look like no!

I acknowledge that 'proposal structures and grammar' aren't a required part of a winning poker player, but for someone to spend a few minutes to make what they are doing look structured and provide relevant information both gives me more inkling they may have what it takes to have worked to become a winning player and also shows that they are trying and are taking asking for money from other people seriously.

he says he was only upset by my comments and I have said sorry. If I was bullying him then obv that is not acceptable and I crossed the line again. 

There is loads of love on blonde and getting a stake is very easy if you set out your proposal properly. I can't remember the last time anyone got knocked back asking nicely.

sell your backer £500 of this on your deal (like normal). that equates to 65% of the comp and gives you a 16.25% freeroll. then just pay for the rest yourself giving you 51.25% total for £270. 25/75 no make up is a great deal and you will not sell here or anywhere at a better rate than that.

This. This. This.

You are putting up around 30% of the money, and recieving over half the action, with no make-up, that's selling yourself at 1.4 effectively which you would never have got even if you'd have done the auction properly.

TBH, and I don't want to sound harsh but the fact that you didn't snap realise this makes me very skeptical...

My attitude is only towards smashedagain as he is bein very rude IMO.....have no other problems with most of the other comments ppl have posted......yes my deal is good I get 25 per cent with no mark up but if u read that's in comps upto 500 like I said in op so I wanted to sell and buy 40 per cent myself like I said also.....

sell your backer £500 of this on your deal (like normal). that equates to 65% of the comp and gives you a 16.25% freeroll. then just pay for the rest yourself giving you 51.25% total for £270. 25/75 no make up is a great deal and you will not sell here or anywhere at a better rate than that.





This. This. This.

You are putting up around 30% of the money, and recieving over half the action, with no make-up, that's selling yourself at 1.4 effectively which you would never have got even if you'd have done the auction properly.

TBH, and I don't want to sound harsh but the fact that you didn't snap realise this makes me very skeptical...





Just didn't think of offering my backer this tbh but will be doin it now but saving Keith 5 per cent at face and if my backer doesn't want to go for it I might try sell with a proper proposal instead of a rushed one.....ppl will prob still troll in that anyway so not sure yet

Keith the thing you are missing is it's not even close to the first time he's made a terrible post in the staking forum. He never seems to learn.

Just don't see the point of 4 or 5 people making exactly the same post.

Seemed like people were ganging up on him.

ganging up and (to a certain extent) "bullying" will always be a part of internet forums imo, however unfair it may be. People get the chance to be macho and feel part of something from behind a laptop.

On the actual subject at hand, the opening proposal was obviously terrible, to the point i actually thought it was a level / joke thread. It seemed like an after thought, and couldnt of taken more than 10 minutes to do. That being said, people dont have to buy (and probably shouldnt buy) if the proposal is that awful.
Also a mod should maybe lock / delete a staking thread if it doesnt meet the correct criteria... maybe with the culprit receiving a 3 strike policy, whereby there banned from putting up staking threads should the proposal not be up to scratch (obviously im not saying this is going to be possible, but its an idea).

Alot of the good threads blonde as produced recently have come from issues arriving from staking  / staking threads / mark up etc etc.

Hi,

My name is Jason Clarke and this is my Hendon Mob: http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=77581

I want to play in the upcoming London UKIPT and I am looking to sell around half my action. I don't have any particularly huge scores to my win and I typically stick to playing local competitions around the £50-£100 region; though I generally prefer to play Dealer's Choice cash games.

I'm from Milton Keynes, though I play anywhere from Northampton, Luton to card rooms in London. I generally attend most GUKPT/Genting side events as well as playing in the DTD £300/£500 events.

Unfortunately, I am not very well practiced in writing out staking proposals but I am the kind of individual that would simply ignore a proposal that didn't appeal to me, rather than destroy it for my own self amusement; it was probably wrong of me to want the same.

But, as I was saying, I feel that I have a decent game and I've had some high places/cashes recently in large live MTT's and I am hoping that this will be the time that I finally get the necessary bit of luck to carry me all the way.

Thanks for your time.

PS. I'm not a grimmer.

It can't be bullying when people want investment, this isn't PHA.

I have to withdraw my offer of 5% staking for personal reasons.

I won't be making any more comments on this thread.
