Title: WSOPE main event £10k buyin
Post by: action man on July 16, 2008, 02:22:09 AM
Hi. im looking to sell 60% of action in the WSOPE main event. Its a £10,000, i will be charging  in 3% bulks of £450. So you are payng a premium. What you will get for your premium is someone who has been playing soley tournament poker proffessionaly for 3 years.

TheClaimeer --- stars
Theclaimer---- tilt


i believe i was also in the top 3 most sucessful Mtt players on the old tribecca network.

Many top players on blonde will hopefully vouch for my edge in big field tournaments.

£10k is too much money for me to buy into one tournament, but i do believe that i will have a good edge on a lot of the players who buy in outright.

I am approximately £30k up from my live poker games including a third in last years newcastle gukpt and a chop of a £300 f/o at broadway last year.

I have played 12 ranking events, final tabled 3, made the money in 5 and won 1 outright.

I understand that it is a lot of money to shell out for a small percentage, and believe me if i had a £300,000 roll i would enter myself.

I do feel that i am above the standard of the players that will be participating in the WSOPE and that i have more experience, due to grinding online through countless hours than many of the 'name' pro's will have.

Feel free to ask questions, or slate me im not bothered. any interested parties may apply within.

Ok to break even your suggesting that your roi is at least 50% (if my maths is correct). Obv to stake you the stakers want a winning proposition as well, so what do you reckon your true edge is.

Post by: action man on July 16, 2008, 02:35:42 AM
i believe that the standard in this field will be on par if not worse than the standard in the avrage 50fo $50rb $100fo on stars and my ROI there is 90% over 1600 Mtt's

Trig, are you going to play if you dont manage to sell 60%?

I mean, are you willing to put up more than £1000 yourself? (If my math is correct)


Title: Re: WSOPE main event £10k buyin
Post by: action man on July 16, 2008, 12:58:00 PM
if i take down a big comp inbetween ill probs pay upto £3-5k and sell a smaller percentage. I do realise that its a tall order selling small percentages for a lot of money, but i wasnt going to jam £10k into it anyway so nothing to lose etc..

Hi,
One point that came up in another thread, if you got any sponsorship/logo payments whilst in the tourny would there be a return for the stakers pro grata?

Cheers

Is this a joke? I final tabled last year and am selling at 1.0. The standard of this tourn will be slightly above that of the $50R on stars, believe me.

Good luck selling 60%.

Never played poker in Leeds either.

I'm selling at 1.0 since I don't expect other people to buy all my variance without any profit in expectation. If you honestly thought you'd have 70%+ ROI in this tournament you'd put up more than £1k yourself.

not got a problem with your thoughts, but please go about it differently, dont come on a thread, ask if its a joke and then offer your services for a lower price. Thats just not gravy imo

lol, I think it's safe to say people have more confidence in you cashing than Ironside cashing (though it'd make my day if Iron could do it)..Thay just lack the funds...well, until we win that Euromillions thing..and if we do for a decent amount I'll definitely stake you (if I don't donk it all off playing high stakes PLO :)

If I was loaded I'd buy you in any day of the week.  Hope you get the stake together - I think it'd be a great investment for anyone who has the funds.
