Title: More Thanet GUKPT
Post by: the sicilian on October 13, 2008, 10:43:05 AM
Ok Guys here we go again

Looking to play Thanet and am selling between 50-60% 1:1  .... £106

Was staked in last weekends APAT Masters and brought home 4th for £3500... My Stakers made 1200% ROI

20% has already been sold to them and the other 2 have first refusal but have yet to get back to me.

Also went deep into day 1 of Luton GUKPT and was amongst the chip leaders but ran into the cheeky girls from Nutz magazine who thought 2nd pair was king..sigh

GUKPT structures suit my game and there are a lot of bad players in these GUKPT's with chips on offer.

I'm a regular in the £50-£100 tournaments at Luton G and have a 1 in 3 Final table record over 170 tournaments.

In January I won the Springfest Main event and have also significant wins on line although i havent played online last 2 months...anyone wanting to check my sharkscope and OPR ranking i am raisingh3ll on stars.

Tighty and Tikay know me well if you want clarification.. my game has grown and although a partime player I am + £21K for the year..however previous post mentioned Solicitors have drained me dry.

Cash if youre a luton player..direct bank transfer or Stars

I most certainly can recommend Staking Mr Sicilian. He has a genuine chance, & has exactly the right game for a GUKPT.

You won't find many better Staking opportunities. Go on, you know it makes sense.

Never mind a HU challenge, the big fight is ON. This Thursday afternoon on the Isle of Thanet. Demand is likely to be high, with tickets predicted to sell out within 1hr13mins.
Meet the contenders:
In the red corner we have The Sicilian - come through some good scraps in the last couple of years, going deep one time in three. Can 'put down' most things, including aces against Tikay. Fired up for this one and feels he has the perfect game for knocking out Flushy.
In the blue corner, we have Flushy - Has been after this opponent for a good while now. Wild and unpredictable and a punchers' chance but we've seen it so many times before, he gets off to a flying start before letting it slip.
Chompy's verdict: We're in for a humdinger here. 4/7 the Sicilian, 5/4 Flushy. Ding ding, round one...

Corssbooking a player who can't afford the buyin tends to be a lose/lose situation

Not a case of cant afford rather a case money i use for my ' hobby ' poker doesnt cover £1000 buyins... the fact i still ( despite my ex wife) could buy and sell you twice over has nothing to do with it.

Why do discussions over optimal play of a certain hand always degenerate into these sort of things? The variables per any given situation are vast and, well, if we played optimally every hand I suspect it'd become a rather bland game after a time.

I've seen a few myself made by both of those involved in the current mini-feud if I am allowed to make myself judge for the moment. Case in point, Sicilian wants to get staked for the GUKPT and being a part time player the £1k buyin is a considerable jump. He made a profit for his stakers in the APAT Pro-Am recently so you can get a piece of him, or don't. I can't afford to, nor is it morally right for me to do it (I believe) but I think it's fair that he doesn't have this on his staking thread. The results speak for themselves, so fill your boots or silently abstain. It's not Fergus or AdamG here.

Err so you can't afford to crossbook then that is exactly my point.

Starts on Wednesday in France, i am thinking of going but it is dependant on selling shares.

Imagine the GPT but even weaker given its all French players!

The buyin is €8500 i am looking to sell 10% shares for €1350, so just under 1.6 which is pretty generous given the standard.

I would need this all locked up by the weekend in order to sort travel and accom.

Cheers!

Seriously, if you think you are well above 2 v the field, why not keep all your action ?

Because 8500€ is a lot of money







We all have to go to the well sometimes...

if you cross book the loser has to give the winner the difference between the amounts you get

so if you bust out and he wins your basically fcked

crossbooking 10% means if he wins 10k and you win 1k you have to give him 900

basically in bigger tournys you need a huge bankroll to crossbook and i doubt flushy could afford to a 100% crossbook in a gukpt

Quite correct but like you say no need to do 100%

Hope you get it now and why i think it wont happen

Damn,  missed this one.......i would of had a stake in you.  Nothing better than backing a horse that can go deep.  Usual horses - no names mentioned get knocked out before dinner break first day...........
