Title: Bristol Gala Harbourside £500 + £50
Post by: Newportlad on June 02, 2009, 09:41:06 PM
This is my first attempt at a Staking Request.  Thought i'd give it a go, as i want to play this one, but its outside my bankroll.

The template is borrowed from Kinboshi staking post.



The Tournament

Gala Harbourside Festival £500 + £50 on Saturday 13th June 2009 (2 Day Event)

15,000 Chips, 60 Minute Clock

The Proposal

I'm asking for a 100% stake for 70% equity. 

In other words, I'm asking for £550 (in 5% chunks) and in return stakers will get their share of 70% of any prize money I manage to win.  I will therefore keep 30% of the winnings for my efforts.

Track Record

I've played 10 APAT National Events, which are 2 Day Events 10,000 Starting stack and 40 min blinds.   I've cashed in 5 of these, making 3 final tables, and winning 1 of them.
I have also played the DTD £300 once (March 2009), where i finished 10th. 
Apart from that i have a pretty good record at my local Casinos (Cardiff and Bristol), making final tables in my last 3 visits to Cardiff.  Due to work commitments, i struggle to find the time to play live as much as i would like.
These 2 day events seem to suit my game, but apart from APAT, they are outside my bankroll.  I think i have game to play these though, which is why i'm posting here.

Interested?

Please PM me or post on here if you're interested.
Thanks for reading.

[ ]   That went well.

Just 93 runners turned up for this event.  I know it clashed with a couple of other events over the weekend, but i was still surprised it didnt max out.   15K chips and 1 hour clock.
Started out ok as i find  8h 8s in my first BB and make a set.   Dont get paid though. The make trips with  8d 4h in the SB on a  Jd 4d 4s board.  BB leads out every street, and i make about 800 out of the pot, so up to 16K.  Then proceed to go totally card dead for the next 8 hours!   The best hand i find in that 6 hours is  8s 8h which costs me about 4K on a  6d 6h  6c board, as someone has  9s 9h. I try a couple of moves, but they all go wrong, and am down to 5K with blinds at 200/400/25.  Totally out of the blue i find Ahrt Ac in SB.   Cutoff calls, and i raise to 1200. BB folds, and cut off calls.  Flop  3s 7s Js    I shove, and cutoff calls with  4s 3h!   Luckily he misses the flush draw, and i get back to just over 10K.
Then back to no cards for a while. Manage to keep my head above water, with occasional pushes, but am down to 8K with blinds at 300/600/25 and about to go to 400/800/50.     Find  Aspades Qs in mid position and shove.  Get called by  9d 9h.  I of course lose the race, and am out.

Many thanks from my backers for giving me the opportunity to play this. It is much appreciated.
