Staking proposal  for two poker tournaments.
The first one is the Dusk Till Dawn £200+25 deepstack tournament  taking place at DTD on 3-5 August .
The second one is the Blackbelt $220 Blackbelt Live tournament taking place at DTD on 10-12 August.
I would like to sell up to 60% maximum in both tournaments.
Reason for wanting stakings: I have recently become unemployed and so i need to cut back on my spending. I have already qualified, via satellite for the DTD £200 deepstack, so i would like to sell some of this, and the Blackbelt tournament in order to cover the expenses of the Blackbelt tournament.
Why it might be worth a punt: I have been working hard to improve my tournament game and have had about four reasonable cashes at DTD (for about £4k total), and some reasonable cashes in local tournaments which i play occasionally. None of these are shown on my Hendon Mob status, which includes  a cash in one of the Blackbelt tournaments where i managed to finish 14th.
I have had small stakes on other people in the past and hopefully, they, and anyone who knows me will vouch for my honesty.
My first attempt at staking was a few years ago in a £100 freeze-out at my local casino (Grovesnor Stoke). This was my first £100 comp. I managed to finish second, for a nice profit  for myself and the people who had shown faith in me.
I can assure any potential backers that i will be making every effort to go one better.
I will be covering the reg fees and am selling at 1.0. Selling in blocks of 5/10 percent.
The costs are as follows:-
DTD £200 Deepstack 5%=£10   10%=£20
Blackbelt Live 5%=£6.50 10%=£13
5% of both=£16.50
10% of both =£33
My prefferred methods of payment are, in order of preference, as follows:
1.   Via Blackbelt poker player transfer.  
2.   Via Bank transfer.
3.   Via  PokerStars player transfer.
All stakes must be paid in full 48 hours before the start of play in each tournament.
Any bonus payments, such as Blackbelt bonuses, or DTD Golden Chip bonuses will NOT be included in the stake.
In the event of any success, all payments will be made as soon as possible after completion of the competitions, either in the same method as the staking payment was made, or, by a mutually agreed method.
 If you are genuinely interested, please feel free to ask any questions. I will try to answer them honestly.

So, that means that 60% of both Tournaments are now sold.  SOLD OUT

Adding your name might be a bit of a help.

Have you offered this proposal on BBP's community then?

Link to that please.

why?


nice op imo. if there was an OPR and abit of bolding would be perfect.

edit: you do post your stars sn.

if it has been offered previously, it would indicate that the proposal did not sell out. OP states that 4 BBP individuals have bought pieces


Anyway, good luck with it

I originally posted on Blackbelt, as i felt that as the main purpose of the stake was to fund the Blackbelt game, it was only right that i gave my friends on there the option if they wished to have a go. Unfortunatelt, due to the forum rules, which i had overlooked, i am not permitted to run a staking thread on there. (hope that helps).
I did intend to post it on here as well anyway, but felt it right that i gave the Blackbelters a chance first.

Perfect, thanks for the clarification

10 of both pls

Cheers for that George. Consider it booked.
also C4ught has booked 5% of each via PM.

Thanks for the kind words Pleno

Tristan (Tristiano BBP) has 5% of each too

I have updated my original post to reflect the current state of play and will continue to do so until the sale is complete.
I will try and post a brief tourney report,for the benefit of my backers, win or lose.
Big thanks to everyonre for the interest shown so far.

Ten of both if it's still available please pm bank details

Rest in both pse.

Have sent you a PM Tony. 10% of each booked-Thanks

Hi Craig, there is just 10% of the DTD Deepstack available now. I will book you down for this.
Thanks for your support.

This staking is now SOLD OUT. Craig and George let me know if bank details are required but Stars or BBP will be fine.
Should any more percentages become available, for any reason, i will give Craig first option.
Many thanks to everyone that has shown an interest in this, my first, staking thread.

Good luck Mr Rage.

This was not a stake that interested me, because I only ever buy action in people I know, plus a few other reasons not specific to you.

I was pleased to see you sell at spot, though, which for some reason pleased me. 

Good luck, & I hope you & your stakers get the lot, as they say.

Thanks for those kind words Tony.
Nothing would please me more than to make a few quid for my stakers, and myself, whilst playing the wonderful game at the best poker venue in the country.

I'm liking you more & more.

I like positive people, glass half full types.

Yes, its a great game, & DTD is a terrific venue.

All good.

Pm me bank details pla mark

Received . Thanks George

received. Thanks Tony

Just confirming that all stakes have now been received.
Thanks again to all stakers and well wishers.

Hi All, Just a quick update.
 I managed a little min-cash in the DTD £200 tournament (£400)
I have shipped winnings to Dawn and Lewis (Stars) and Tristan (cash at DTD)
If everyone else can PM me your details ASAP and i will ship the winnings straight away.
I'm happy to send it on Stars, Bank Transfer or Blackbelt, whatever you all prefer. (pretty sure i need your email address for Blackbelt)
Sorry it's not more, gave it 100%, ran a little bit unlucky at the end. Will try harder next week.

Wins a win very well played. Does this mean people are virtually free rolling Blackbelt live?

Yes, cheers Jason. Anyone who had a bit of both is free rolling the Blackbelt comp now.

Just a quick update for my stakers.
Unfortunately i failed to make day 2 in the Blackbelt comp. No excuses really.
Played AA less than optimally very early on, pretty card dead for most of the comp, ended up shoving with AQ towards the end of level 11, small blind had AK which held to KO me. Hopefully, i will learn from the experience of these two comps and come back stronger next time around.
Great tournament though, so WP to Blackbelt poker for putting on another top event at DTD.
 Big congratulations to Kevin Williams for taking it down and Well Done to Sam Razavi and Babis , and ALL of the clowns for their generosity in aid of cancer research.
Thanks again to everyone that bought a stake.
