staking question

[titaniumbean]

Rio daily 200s were incredible value last year, fairly quick but well worth playing.

Yeah agree with everyone else.  So many value comps in Vegas between 200/300 I think you should just go for those and just try to sell small pieces to friends if need be.

During WSOP time even the Aria 125s get pretty big fields.

No need to complicate things with selling massive amounts to various people and the hassle that comes with it for this kind of trip. 

GL and maybe see you out there.  I'll be punting in the Rio 235 turbo probs.

They run satty sit and go's at the Rio. Mainly very soft

Does the Rio run satellites for non-holdem events??

[smashedagain]

Its all good advice on what to play but I do think if Brookie wants to take a shot in one of the $1000/$1500 wsop events then I am pretty sure there will be people willing to have a punt with him.

Its almost unheard of that anyone who has the required 300 contributions and posts an honest, open and thought out op gets given a knock back.

Give it a go and see imo

looking for some advice,as some off u know am going to vegas from the 29 5 2013 till 9 6 2013, am wanting to enter some larger buyin game when am out there,and my budget not going to let me do this,so am going try and  sell about 70/80% of the game probably looking at about $1000 to $1200 for two games,now i never done this before and any advice would be great as am a complete novice at this am not even sure i will sell it to be honest but will try.

Seems most people get staked by providing a well thought out post, although it may be hard with no track record. Do you have any on-line stats that will help? Either way in answer to your question:

1) Decide exactly what tournaments you want to play and the stakes you are asking for. Do the maths and the percentages; Sell at spot, nice and simple, no mark up. no hassle.
2) Post on Facebook that you are looking for stakers. Give full details of the torn and the percentages available.
If your friends and family aren't looking to back you then its a bad start...
3) Now you have your magic 300 posts place a post on the staking thread. Sell at spot. Provide detailed information. Go overboard. Check other posts for examples of good and bad posts. Make yours good. Have a cut off date and make sure you explain that if you dont make the level you need you will have to pull the deal by the cut off date. Give it 3 weeks. You can always try again.
4) If it works great, your in. If it doesn't take the advice of other posters. Play to your level. It makes more sense overall.
And remember you have nothing to lose, save for a small bit of dented pride?

Still cant work out how to quote and have my own text separate. Without derailing can anyone help???

When you click quote.


You get


[Quote - post information]  THE TEXT [// Quote with just one backslash]


Then you add your extra text after the 'close quote' part.



Posting BEFORE  the brackets puts your text at the top of the post. Posting in between the two quote brackets puts your text inside the quoted post and makes things look weird.
