Title: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: The Camel on April 17, 2006, 08:22:43 PM I think I'm going to play the main event here tomorrow. But there's the little matter of $25,000 to find ;hide;
I know it's late notice but I wondered if anyone wanted to buy a share. I am prepared to sell 7.5% for $2500. The premium is purely to help cover expenses. I honestly feel I am currently playing the best poker of my life. If you are interested, IM me. If you are not interested feel free to take the piss :D Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: Ironside on April 17, 2006, 08:24:20 PM wish i could afford to pay $2500 a little out of my league but thanks for the offer
Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: Dubai on April 17, 2006, 08:25:02 PM This aint a dig at all but surely the premium represents your edge over the field rather than claiming it covers expenses because you are in Vegas already so expenses have already been paid.

GL in the Main The expenses will be waiting for me in the form of a credit card bill when I get home! Even if they are paid, that would assume I'm playing 100% for myself. If I'm selling selling shares I think it's fair for the shareholder to assume a fair proportion of the expenses too. Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: byronkincaid on April 17, 2006, 08:46:31 PM $2.5K too much for me too but maybe we could get 10 blondes to put up $250 each? Obv I'll put up $250 and to save Keith a load of hassle you could transfer money to me at Stars and I'll transfer it all to the Camel in one go. If he cashes then he can transfer cash to me and I'll distribute it accordingly.
With regards to taking the piss I think I'll leave that up to Tony G. :D Good Luck. Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: The Baron on April 17, 2006, 08:48:52 PM If I had $2500 expendable I'd be there.
Good luck finding them Mr Camel. Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: Ironside on April 17, 2006, 08:49:29 PM i am up for that justin but not sure if i can transfer money untill i clear this bonus i know i cant withdraw
Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: byronkincaid on April 17, 2006, 08:50:43 PM yeah u can no probs 100% certain m8 stars bonii are the nuts. u can withdraw as well.
Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: Ironside on April 17, 2006, 08:51:29 PM you cant withdraw with them i tried that otehr day and got a pop up saying the bonus would be lost
Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: byronkincaid on April 17, 2006, 08:55:34 PM Dunno then mate that goes against everything I thought I knew about stars bonuses. Best to email them and ask I guess.
Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: 4dam on April 17, 2006, 09:10:09 PM I would be intrested in putting up 250 with 9 others byronkinacaid
Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: byronkincaid on April 17, 2006, 09:25:28 PM Ironside are you sure the pop up wasn't saying if you take money out you will not be able to claim a current (at that time) bonus. AFAIK you are not allowed to take out money BEFORE you get the bonus ie you withdraw $600 and then redeposit to get the bonus. Numerous times I have got bonus and withdrawn straight away (have to wait 48hours I think) with no problem.
Anyway I'm off to watch this live poker on Sky. Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: Ironside on April 17, 2006, 09:29:13 PM nah it was recent and i am leaking money at present so wouldnt have been withdrawing

i am disapointed! Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: brad.strider on April 18, 2006, 12:36:28 AM would it be possible for me to obtain 10% of the 10% of the 7.5% for $25 ?

that so made me smile!! can i do 10% of 10% of that for 25c mmm!!!! Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: moritzey on April 18, 2006, 01:22:14 AM I'll buy one of those 0.75%s for $25, too. $250 is a little too much, but if we find 8 more, I'd be happy to buy a mini-share.

I'll give you your full $2,500, but I want 70% of your earnings in return. Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: moritzey on April 18, 2006, 01:50:48 PM (http://www.m1nt.co.uk/gallery/publish/241.jpg) I'll give you your full $2,500, but I want 70% of your earnings in return. Ahh, finally the comic reply we've all been waiting for ;D Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: tikay on April 18, 2006, 02:02:16 PM Well, the answer Keith would appear to be "No". Truth is, $2,500 is a lot of money to most of us, more than we can afford.
But if I had that amount of spare cash to invest, I can think of few players more worthy of such support. From all of us at blonde, Good Luck Keith - go win it! Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: action man on April 18, 2006, 02:27:13 PM pokerron whats 70% of $0 again? ;hide;
Title: I'm in! Post by: The Camel on April 18, 2006, 05:26:57 PM Finally found enough people drunk enough to buy the shares..
So, I made it in! Feeling the same mixture of nerves, excitement and tension that I felt when I played the main event of the WSOP for the first time. 50,000 in chips, starting blinds of 50-100... Even RedDog might think this is a good structure ;hide;. Cheers for the good wishes guys... now how does this 47 thing work again??? Title: Re: Selling shares for the main event at Bellagio Post by: tikay on April 18, 2006, 05:28:29 PM Keith - DELIGHTED. Well Done fella. Now go come 2nd in it. Behind Monty Burns.
